A police official, who asked not to be identified because of the sensitivity of the situation, said militants told him the hostage was sick and couldn't walk and was therefore shot.

The South Korean church that the abductees attend has said it will suspend at least some of its volunteer work in Afghanistan. It also stressed that the Koreans abducted were not involved in any Christian missionary work, saying they provided only medical and other volunteer aid to distressed people in the war-ravaged country.

Volunteer to help Muslims- get killed
free Muslims from dictators- get killed
send aid $ to Muslims- get killed
allow Muslims into your country- get killed

This is what happens in nations when they have no Jews to kill. They go after the Christians.

Won't happen, but I'd love to see the ROK 1st ID ( TIGER ), 9th ID ( WHITE HORSE ), and 2nd Bde ROK Marines ( BLUE DRAGONS ) deployed to Afghaniland. And then be allowed to operate exactly as they did in RVN.

I never met any tougher guys than the ones in the 2nd Bde ROK Marines...aka Blue Dragons. The ROK Marines were tough in the NW sector of Korean DMZ, where they rotated in and out, as well, brutally tough. The White Horse and Tiger Divisions had the same reputation, one to be feared. Don't trust me, ask a PAVN vet, or a NORK vet.

I knew a ROK vet and TKD black belt in college. He was one tough little dude. His immediate family could probably finish off the Taliban themselves.

I can't really say to much, but you've "heard" me refer to smart units taking fire from a village, a building near a village, even a tree line near a village, only once...repeat once. Ever. Well, that's where I got it from, the Blue Dragons. Good theory.

You may get your wish, Aridog:

Baek Jong Chun, chief presidential secretary for foreign and security policy, was on his way to Afghanistan today as the Government promised that those responsible “will be held accountable for taking the life of a Korean citizen”.

Korea responds?

Certainly, had it been Chinese killed by the Taliban, we know what the reaction would have been (eg., Chinese harassed by the Pak Red Mosque nutters).
