South Korea hostages freed by Taliban leave hospital

The South Korean Christian volunteers that were hostaged in Afhanistan, were released from the hospital today.

They were held captive for nearly 6 weeks. 2 were killed during early negotiations, by their Taliban, islamic captors. A total of 23 South Koreans were taken nearly 6 weeks ago.

They were held in the hospital 10 days before being released to go home. The chief of the hospital did same "They may be coming individually for treatment on psychological issues."

Why Psychological?


"They demanded we convert to Islam, and some of them were violent to us, although it wasn't constant," one of the hostages, Jae Chang-hee, said. "They would throw rocks at us. They threatened us with their guns."


The Islamic Taliban took them hostage, killed 2 early on, but the christian missionaries "apologised for the trouble they had caused".

Wow. Talk about an incorrect view.
