Why terrorism must be stopped!

I was disheartened today due to the tragic news of the second death of a member from a group of 18 female and 5 male south Korean Christian volunteers that were abducted by the Taliban a few weeks back in Afghanistan. Last week the pastor of the group was killed because the Taliban demands the release of their members were not met by the Afgan government. Although a new dateline has been set for the release the government has yet to comply, time are running short for the hostages i pray for their safe release.

The reason the volunteers are there are to make a change to the lives of those ravaged in the war torn country. A bitter twist of fate landed them in this hostage situation instead their life is now a wager for the freedom of a few terrorist militants. They do not deserve such fate, nobody does. This is clearly why terrorism must be stopped. Innocent lifes of those who do good are traded for the freedom of blood thirsty inhumane mongrels. Thinking of it just makes my blood boil... This is a very complicated situation as there are no other options, its release or die... We cannot allow the terrorist to win but without the expense of human life it is just not possible.

They are not asking for a sacrifice... the lives of the people in their hands means nothing to them. Driven by their ideology the world is so much more a dangerous place to live in. Imagine the release of these militants each one of them pose a greater threat to humanity itself. Remember 9/11? it just takes a handful of terrorist to bring the world down to its knees.

In this case would you abide to terrorist demands? The world does not do any deals with terrorists but guess we have no choice but to save the Koreans and deal with those bastards later.

The Hostages

Kitty grimm reaper?

This is a piece of strange news that i have fished out from the net. Apparently there is this cat Oscar who predicts death in nursing home by simply curling up on a patients bed and stays there in a time frame of 4hours before the death. Oscar knows, when your time is up!

Move aside giant squid here comes the colossal squid!

As i was surfing wikipedia for more information on the giant squid i came across the colossal squid which is the largest squid species ever recorded. Below is a picture of a colossal squid caught in the arctic waters off the coast of New Zealand early this year.

Sotong Gergasi! a.k.a Giant Squid

Since i was a child i have always been fascinated by the giant squid thanks to the movie 20,000 leagues under the sea. Also referred as "Kraken" in Norwegian folklore this creature is featured in the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest". This is no ordinary squid that turns up on your dinner table. This is one behemoth squid which is very elusive and lives in the crushing depths of the sea. Not until recently the knowledge of this majestic creature remain hidden, with the development advance technology are we starting to piece together the mystery surrounding giant squids. Japanese researchers made history on December 4 2006 when they were successful in filming a video of a live giant squid. It sometimes gives me the creeps imagining an invertebrate can grow up to the size of a great white shark. If one day a living giant squid is available to be viewed by the public i will definitely be there to see it.
