Men: Price of Human Lives

I found this article in a forum and find it very meaningful and truthful. Terrorists are beheading innocent people (American, South Korean, next may be Filipino), when will it ever end? I really don't want to live to see a Singaporean get beheaded by those barbaric, cruel and mindless terrorists. Long live Peace and Justice.

Men: Price of Human Lives

"A Filipino abducted in Iraq will be executed unless the Philippines withdraws its troops from the country within 72 hours, said a video broadcast on Al-Jazeera television, showing a hostage cowering on his knees."

First the American. Then the Korean. Now the Filipino. It doesn't look like it's going to end.

As they always say, "Everyone has a mother". Everyone was born from and nurtured by a mother. From holding her new-born baby in her arms, hearing him say his first word, watching him take his first step. True enough, everyone has a mum. And how will she react to the news? I've read about the grief of the family of the beheaded South Korean. I really wonder.. the Filipino's parents.. how are they feeling now?

The Iraqis has parents too. Are they proud of their sons for serving the nation and bringing glory to the country? Or are they also disappointed by how degenerate their beloved sons turn out to be?

Maybe they have no choice. But, many of us can't even bear to watch the video of the beheading.. yet some can, with grins on their faces, slice their knives across others neck, amidst the victim's screamings and agony.

What is the price of human lives?

Where is the love?
