Again, there have been too many taken as hostage in IRAQ.

If it is Singaporean taken hostage in IRAQ and he or she is your family member. What can and will you do and what will the GOV do?

its pretty obvious that what these people are doing. they know that the governments of the various countries are not going to give in - none of the previous ones have and none is going to in future. but they still continue to do it. scare and copycat tactics. and to enrage the rest of the world against people of their own kind.

sad to say there are people who still fall for their ploys.

i won't be surprised. they will not stop. they are going to kidnap one person from every country who has people in iraq, and do the same.

yes they may have fewer and fewer options and less space and time to run, but the way they are dealt with will be pivotal in determining how long this war will last.
