Programmed to Kill (1987)

aka The Retaliator

Terrorists, America’s favourite nomenclature for enemies of freedom, are attacking tourists in Greece. Isn't it odd how despite being regionally nonspecific the word somehow implies the enemy hail from the Middle East? They do this time, so the top brass kidnap one of the kidnappers (it’s okay, they’re bad and we’re not~), turn her into a mindless killing machine and send her back to where she came from. We're so clever. Take that, haters of Uncle Sam! Oh shit, she's gone rogue. No one saw that coming.
