South Korean Beheaded

South Korea should announce that it is doubling the number of troops it's sending.
Monsters.....They're not human. They're demons.
I mean, the poor man was pleading for his life! This has gone on for too long. We have to start providing more security for contractors.
Yesterday, I believe 4 troops were killed. Their personal belongings were scattered around their body but their weapons and armor were missing.
It's time to level Fallujah.
I certainly can't think of a single moral, religious, scientific or even fashion related contribution to the world made by the country of Iraq that I would miss following the usage of tactical nuclear weapons. Surely the world would not be any worse off over the loss.
Roger that, one parking lot coming up! They should announce that they are going to level it and search every vehicle and person who attempts to leave. The ones that reufse to leave if they truly are civilians, well sorry to say it but casualties of war.Quote:

The Islamic culture invented the concept of "zero" a thousand years ago. It's been inventing zero ever since.
Meanwhile our "playing politics" worked with Sadr.Quote:

You won't stop solo kidnappings by leveling the town. I'd be all for it if the situation were right - trust me.
This ain't it.
They believe their only hope is to provoke us into a hasty, sweeping action which would necessarily cause a lot of collateral damage. The goal of course being further unrest and a widespread revolt. Continue on course. Transfer power. Slowly cede more and more responsibility to the Iraqis. Everything that the terrorists are fighting for is melting away and they know it.
Fallujah is one big al Qaeda training camp. We need to either regain control there or show them some more shock and awe.
The last American killed was kidnapped in Saudi Arabia. Leveling Fallujah would've prevented that how?
Again - this is an attempt to provoke an action which in turn would interfere with the turnover. We should continue doing what we're doing... chip away at them. Find safehouses and bomb them. But do not do the "parking lot creation" thing.
This thread is about the South Korean. He was beheaded by al Qaeda terrorists whose base of operation is Fallujah.
South Korea must have been reading this thread. They have stated they are sending even more troops to Iraq.
This is the kind of fortitude we need from our allies.
I don't think you are espousing the leveling of Fallujah for the simple beheading of one South Korean translator, so this thread as in fact become about more than that one act.Quote:
