| #2 He will pose a bigger problems for them if he doesn't grovel. The South Korean guy followed their script to a T. They didn't much care for the result of their video of the Italian. |

| #1 Hmmmm. Yesterday the Turks, now the Pakistani. Maybe they finally got the memo reminding them that the Western media and the LLL will portray them as backward savages if they cut off fellow moslems' heads - but as "freedom fighters" if they stick to murdering Americans or other Westerners (which I would suspect they considered their Korean victim, since he wasn't moslem). Guess the Lebanese Marine presents a real dilemma for them. On the one hand, he's a moslem from Lebanon; on the other hand, he's in our Marines. Bet the Al-Q higher-ups are twisting themselves into pretzels trying to figure out whether murdering him helps or hurts their cause in the eyes of the Western media, where it counts the most. (The morality of it, of course, will never enter their minds - another thing they and the Western media have in common.) I hope for his sake they decide his country and religion outweigh his uniform. But is ain't lookin' good. Hopefully the Marines will find him before he's dead. |
