Who won and who lost?

Finally, the South Korean hostages will be released by Taliban within 4 days. The South Korean statement read: "The Taliban agreed to free the 19 South Korean hostages on the condition that South Korea withdraws its troops within this year and halt missionary activities."
Who lost more in this Dirty game. S. Korea or Taliban? of course taliban. They lost the power of this card. I dont think they will gamble again by keeping hostages. Who is the big winner? The Afghani Goverment. They insisted on no exchange of hostages versus Taliban prisoners and they won the race.

I think people are pretty much fed up with the killing of hostages. It just doesn't work anymore.
It doesn't scare people as much as it did. Hostage taking, and killing hit a saturation point / apex. I hate to be blase', but maybe it's now passe'?

Hi guys, Wecome to you all and thanks for visiting. Esmat, I feel there is a spontaneously developing process that is segregating Muslims from terrorists. it is not stereotypical anymore that once your are muslim you are a terrorist. It just needs few years to be clarified to the world. Hope the Arab keep a low profile and stop bullshitting. I also absolutely agree with vagabond. Yes that is very true. Dear Mr Dollet... this is a problem in my blogger setting I tried many time to figure out how to fix it but it is in my mind. If you know how to change this setting I will appreciate your advice
