While one can certainly understand the utmost concern with which the Korean government takes this very unfortunate act of terrorism, such a move only amounts to playing into the hands of blackmail of the worst sort. Whatever happened to fighting for a principled cause? It seems to be lacking in most Asian militaries. |

Taliban militants threatened Friday to kill a group of abducted South Korean Christians, including 15 women, within 24 hours unless the Asian nation withdraws its 200 troops from Afghanistan. South Korea said Saturday it plans to withdraw its forces by the end of this year as scheduled. |
