(Seoul: Yonhap News) Hwang Dae-il reporting
After the news of Kim Seon-il(age:33)'s murder by Iraqi Resistance Group spread over the country, the website of Ministry of Defense was flooded with messages urging retaliation.
Especially, some posters were so consumed with rage that they vent their hatred against not only the terrorist group which murdered Mr. Kim, but also Iraq as a country and the Iraqis as a whole.
A guy whose handle name is 'I am a corporal, too' exhorted, "Wipe out everything in Iraq, to the last grass. Declare war against Iraq at once. Doesn't S. Korea have any backbone? Send paratroopers and marines to wipe Iraq off the Globe."
Another guy raised his voice, saying, "Iraqis are no longer human. Let us hunt devils in human form living in Iraq."
Another request demanded that the mission of Suh-hee, Jema Units(S. Korean medical and engineering units), serving in Nasiriah in Southern Iraq, be changed (into combat), and repay them with death.
One poster appeared to have almost lost his mind, saying, "Zaitun Unit(note: 3,000 strong S. Korean unit soon to be dispatched) should be a combat unit and sent to Fallujah. Slaughter all men, women, young and old. That should be Zaitun Unit's mission."
A poster named Song Dong-hoon argued, "Now that our brother was killed, what's the use for relief work? Even if we have to hire mercenaries, we have to take revenge until we catch the culprits. 50 million Koreans were humiliated. We should not help their rebuilding. We should keep retaliating until the suspects are caught."
Many posters lined up to volunteer for the mission if combat troops were to be organized to retaliate against the group which murdered Mr. Kim.
A man named Chae Young-soo said, "If they take volunteers for combat troops, I will sign up unconditionally. Innocent Korean son was brutally murdered. I cannot take it anymore. I want to fight terrorists even if I would be killed by them. I want a merciless revenge."
A man named Oh Sang-jin expressed his fury, "I am a second-year reservist. I want to re-enlist and wipe them out in Iraq. I like to show what Koreans are made of."
Some harshly rebuked the government for their lack of sound negotiating strategy, killing Kim Seon-il, while Japan was able to secure the release of their hostages.
This times around, there were few messages opposing the troop dispatch. When the news of Mr. Kim's kidnapping first broke, many such messages flooded the website.

Sounds good to me.
Keep us posted.
good.
Ping!
It's nice to see that they've switched to burning al-Zarqawi's pic rather than GWB's.
If you think about it Korea is kinda the Israel of the orient. they have had their backs to the wall for more than fifty years and have trained their troops accordingly.
The terrorists have awakened yet another sleeping giant.
I encourage the Koreans to show what they are made of - send them to Iraq and let them loose on the terrorists.
Let's hope the SKoreans do retaliate.
We seem to be too PC any more to do what needs to be done to rid the world of the cockroaches. Maybe SKorea won't be so worried about PC and they go in to Fallujah and other nests.
Picking a fight ping!
Wonder what the North is thinking about all this?
The Moose Limbs are in deep shi'ite!
I wonder if S.Korea has a large leftist movement sympathetic to "understanding" the terrorists?
I wonder if S.Koreans blame other S.Koreans?
anyone?
"is there a video of the beheading? "
Yes, I belive there is. Al-Jazeera reportedly has one.
Send to Iraq the same units that struck fear in the hearts of the Viet Cong.
Al-jezeera says they won't release the video becuase it "may be disturbing for their viewers"...they released the opther ones..this one must be really bad
I must be somehow related to these S. Koreans!
