One of the pictures looks fake.Originally posted by Arapahoe:as much as the pictures are too explicit, but sometime I think it is necessary to depict the cruel reality of people in the region. As said pictures tell a thousand word.
The 2nd picture that depict the Indo military police holding hands beside the decapitated head is a powerful picture that shows people at the ground level the culture and its people mind set as to how far people are willing to go to avenge their hate.
Similarly, 911 incident was not something out from a broadway production that we watch from TV and forget.
Wow...this really happened? Where did you know about this from?Originally posted by Atobe:
During Indonesian President Sukarno's Confrontation over the formation of Malaysia, one group of Indonesian paratroopers had parachuted into the Johor State, and a hunt was initiated by Singapore's 1SIR.
Unfortunately, one section of a Platoon was ambushed while they rested, and their bodies were mutiliated.
This riled up the remaining 1SIR batalion, who hunted the Indonesian parachutists, leaving no survivors, and returned the compliments to them.

Some are still around, try buying them some beer and listen patiently to old men talking - there maybe spices added, but the storyline remains true.

But for someone who started those cruelties, I ask where is the morality yourself as a modern human being.

============================
er.........it was 2 SIR......they were patrolling the jungle at Kota Tinggi......then they saw a nice river.....and all jumped in for a swim. Just then, the Indonesian paras turned up and shot the lot........then they cut off the 2SIR soldier's penis' and shaft them into the mouths of the dead soldiers.
The bodies were recovered and brought to Holland road camp for washing and last rites.......
Instructions were then given that no Indonesian prisoners were to be taken alive..........
