The Dirty Dozen Remake

I was reading an article lately about the new Dirty Dozen remake and apparently its a modern day take on the material. An Al Qaeda-like group called The Sword Of Crescent have risen up to fill the hole left by America kicking Al Qaeda back on to their heels. The president is now black, but apparently not Barack Obama. The script starts with a kidnapping of an American woman and apparrently a journalist - a hot 22 year old Callie Peck - who happens to be the daughter of a supermarket magnate that was a key backer responsible to get the President elected. Basically this Sword of Crescent group is so mean and bad that it scares the normal crack Force types and they suggest sending in military prisoners with "everything to gain" to get this girl. There's lots of cussing and doom projecting about their chances - and the dialogue is said to be absolutely dreadful awful.

Why in the name of God is not set during WW 2 surely that would make more sense???
