well i guess this is my job from now on. to report the kidnappings. If you dont want to read all that ill summerize. Iraqis took a 33 year old south korean hostage. they said that korea should withdraw their 3,000 troops from iraq or this man will be beheaded. In their words "we will send you his head if you do not withdraw the troops"
Are you guys sure you still want to defend these people? These middle easterns are barbaric. i expect to see another beheading video very very soon. This is getting way out of hand.
white Boy:
yea, hes dead...
Trauma-san:
We should just Nuke 'Em. Who's wit me?
Don Rizzle:
south korea don't even have troops there, they are gonna send em soonish if i remeber rite. its terrible what they are doing but its all on such a small scale u need to get things into perspective. people get kidnapped all the time and its not just in the middle east its just they are making ridiculas demands and who is making them they are getting all this publicity as well as the brutality. the real bad stuff is like that car bomb that went off last week killing over 30 ppl.
i wish there was an ignore button on this forum cos i would us it for trauma

I dont mean to be like "fuck them were so great lets nuke everyone" but heres the thing.
The only reason were being nice to the middle east is because of their oil. (were kissing saudia arabias ass the most).
Honestly, the world would be a lot better place without the middle east. I dont want to do it but if you think about it, it would be. Right now basically the only people were at "war" with are people from the middle east.
Al-queda doesnt come from poland in case you guys wanted to know. You can call me sick, or not compansionate. But after all that has happned. i never want to turn on the news to see another building blown up. I dont want to read in the news that some alqueda member released anthrax into the air of the superbowl game, and its spreading across the USA.
DON,
--- Code: --- The video came two days after news of the beheading of American hostage Paul Johnson by al-Qaida-linked militants in Saudi Arabia, and an announcement Friday by South Korea that it will send 3,000 soldiers to northern Iraq beginning in early August. Once the deployment is complete, South Korea will be the largest coalition partner in Iraq after the United States and Britain.
