Given the fact that they are not going to win in any way, they've resorted to claiming innocent lives through the most brutal ways...Paul Johnson Jr.(RIP),an aircraft engineer, was captured and taken into captivity for several days and later on beheaded after the US couldn't heed to an ultimatum set by the 'barbaric terrorist group'.Isn't there any way these guys can make their ends meet other than instilling fear in the world's population so as to have their demands met?Such groups don't last long especially with the kind of despair exposed;that actually costs human lives...it's simply unpopularity that's gaining peak.At the moment a South Korean national has been taken hostage...awaiting the gallows,too,if the Seoul government doesn't withdraw it's troops from Iraq.The game seems strategic...sickening though.
