| 2004-03-17 |
| Acting President Goh Kun put South Korea on high alert against possible attacks today saying the country was among the main targets for terrorism following the Madrid bombings, a spokesman said. "Those countries which have their troops stationed in Iraq have become main targets for terrorist attacks," spokesman Kim Duck-Bong quoted Goh as saying. "South Korea, in some respects, is a country that should be on a high state of alert against terrorism," Goh said. Have fun blending into Korea’s islamic community, guys. Oh, wait.. South Korea plans to send 3,000 troops to take control of rehabilitation efforts in Iraq’s northern province of Kirkuk next month. |
