coma Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Some countries need to grow some balls when dealing with such situations. These sort of kiddnappings in Africa are only going to increase in frequency in todays current climate. Had the victims been Israeli they would probably be back at home safe and sound with the family by now as was the case after Operation Entebbe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coma - your statement is spot on mate - unless others realize the history which they live by and only the Islamists extremists understand - intimidation That concept is lost by westerners - the only persuasive element the terrorists understand is that pain and suffering will reign down on them if they even thought about harming an Israeli – that same concept and methodology needs to be used to prevent the capture and torture of others. If retaliation and personalized targeting of family is not employed into the methodologies used to deter their terrorizing – they will never stop - this is how they have controlled each other for thousands of years - its the only thing they understand. BTW - why only 1 post by you on this topic 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time Palestinians took Israeli hostages during the Munich olympics, all terrorists and hostages ended up dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did some CT training a few years back they showed a documentary about that as a 'how not to do' business. Maybe there was still a little Nazi influence in Germany when that Op went down.

Alas such an approach would be ruled out by self-hating liberals, who would be terrified of the terrorists not getting a fair trial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
