I'm not afraid of terrorism/ist. My dad served 8 years in the U.S. military. I've lived overseas in the time of the Gulf War. I was exposed to several air raids, attacks, and possibly chemical warfare. I've seen a lot of videos. I've never seen this nausia compilation but it really doesn't phase me. I believe standing tall on the fact that negotiation will never be successful because to believe they would let the captured survive would be a trump. (And to believe negotions would work? We've already tried. Mr. Arafat spent most of his lifetime trying to make relations between Israeli and Palestinian militants. Everytime he was offered something he'd turn it down and war would repeat itself. So we cannot say we haven't given it a try. Excuse me 'tries' rather.)

The individual will die if we do not negotiate. If we remove troops they are not going to liberate the individual. They'll be held captive to ensure the troops are not placed back. Regardless the life will not be spared. More demands will be made and nothing eventually is accomplished. The fate is sealed. I'm sorry to sound callus but it's a lose-lose situation. We just have to stand and stay with the program.

What they are doing is murdering innocent individuals. Americans may have mistreated individuals at Gitmo prison and Gbay. But those individuals are not soldiers in allegiance to Iraq. Therefore they are enemy combatants. (Civilians.) Under which they are not protected by the Geneva Convention. (This means if we allowed it, we could torture them.) But that is not the way we operate. The soldiers whom did inflict punishment undue are being taken care of by the military.

With that said I'm just totally not concerned about terrorism. I'm not afraid of a man who hides behind women and children to fight. And I'm definitely not afraid to lose my life.
