Taliban Beheads Polish Hostage


Piotr Stanczak


The Pakistani Taliban has announced today that it has beheaded a Polish engineer who had been abducted last September in Pakistan. The murder came after the Polish Government had refused to negotiate a ransom and the Pakistani Government had refused to negotiate a Taliban prisoner release.

Polish engineer Piotr Stanczak was adducted last September while working in Pakistan. His captors filmed a video of him pleading for authorities to negotiate for his freedom.

As if this act is not barbaric enough, the Taliban is demanding a 2000 Euro ransom for return of Stanczak's body.

Words cannot describe the barbarism that this dispicable act represents.

If the EU was smart they would go Klingon on these guys and say: "Keep it, it is an empty shell. Do with it what you will." But no! They'll pay to get his body back!

Such is the difference between a civilized society and one that is uncivilized.

While I certainly wish that I could snap my fingers and make the Taliban go away, people like "Anonymous" don't exactly make me feel much better than the Taliban does.

Lance,

Well, I suppose we could ask the UN to pass a resolution against beheadings. That might work.

Atomic bombs need to be droped on these monsters called taliban, no breath must exists on their venomous land for thousands years after. Should they be captured-they need to be beheaded, eye for eye - tooth for tooth.
