I just don't understand what's wrong with them.
我真是搞不懂他們有什么毛病。
Don't they have any humanity?
他們一點人性都沒有嗎?
Well, maybe they've got a point.

I mean, I suspect that they think the same about us.
我猜他們的想法就跟我們一樣。
Yes, but that doesn't make them right, does it?
是，不過這并不表示他們是對的。
Just because they think so?
他們只因為想這么做，就可以這么做嗎?
I guess not.
當然不是。
My view is that we should give in to their demands, so that innocent people can stop getting killed.
我的意思是，我們應該接受他們的要求，這樣無辜的人就不會被殺了。
Come on, you can't be serious!
拜托，你不是說真的吧?
We should never give in to terrorist's demands, otherwise where would we be?
我們絕對不能接受恐怖分子的要求，否則我們怎么辦?
Well, that's probably true, but I don't think we should be dogmatic about it.
嗯，這么說也許沒錯，不過我覺得我們不應該固執己見。
A colleague of mine was kidnapped once, so perhaps I have a different view of things.

Well, it was in the Balkans during the war.

It was a case of mistaken identity, and they just let him go when they found out he was no use to them.
他們認錯了人，所以等他們發現他沒什么用處時，就把他給放了。
It was lucky they didn't kill him.
所幸他們沒有殺了他。
Oh, sure.
噢，是啊。
