Default two koreans dead, 19 more to go

at the hands of the Taliban.



In 2007, it's hard to believe that OBL operates with impunity, and the Taliban controls huge sectors.

All these folks are feared to soon die.

These men are barbarians with no regard for human dignity, life or freedom. Sickening.

at some point the calculus must change, and the taliban and its supporters must be targeted in aggressive ways.

Maybe Karzai should start capping one of the prisoners they want released each time they kill a S. Korean hostage. I wonder how they'd react to a dose of their own medicine?


edit: I'm not serious.

preferable to torture.

Even though I am against torture, don't put my back against the wall. Because while I could be the greatest proponent of turning the other cheek, I could also be the avenging angel.

How long will the Lord's hand be stayed?

I agree. It's time to open a Costco-sized can of whoop-ass.

If people are going to insist on putting their life in danger by visiting these places I offer two suggestions:

1. Tell them to enter at their own risk. We will not spend one second or one dollar trying to save them. If they are doing God's work, they better be pretty damn sure God will intervene on their behalf.

2. Require tracking devices to be implanted internally. As soon as a hostage is taken, track them and bomb them.

I'm not sure how to implant them. I propose they get implanted in bone. Preferably the pelvic bone because an arm or leg would be too easily cut off.

Why should we? Let Korea bomb them.
