Sorry to hear about your countryman. In a front page article in the San Diego Tribune on Tuesday, it was stated that this guy and others were taken hostage after terrorists were "encouraged" by their success in scaring the Phillipines out of the country.
As sad as I am for the man shot, I am even sadder that the response of turkish truck drivers is to boycott deliveries to Iraq. 300 shipments a day.
Score another victory for terrorism.
Soon as the other two were set free the word out of the trucking sector was that the shipping will continue.
Just don't forget the days when the PKK used to suicide bomb our schools and malls while fundraising freely in DC.
