Love Supreme SG The 10 chinese hostages in Iraq could possibly be a life line for the American troops. What is your comment on that?
av98m SG I’d be very suprised if china does intervene. After all, their population is huge and life is cheap there.
sgdiehard SG Singaporeans lives are expensive that is why everybody cannot survive, so complain about the government or want to migrate. If singaporean were kidnapped in Iraq, do you think the government will do anything?
vito_corleone SG as much as china wants to i think it cant really do anything…10 or 20 yrs later maybe but now i dont think they have the projection power to assert military force outside mainland china itself.
stupidissmart SG American lives were also taken as hostages and killed as well. Frankly the best action is never to negotiate. If u do, they will catch more of your people and ask for more things.
Love Supreme SG USA will "love" china to be involved. arm sales will boom, cheap supply of armies will come to replace the current expensive US troops.
av98m SG I don't think so. Our govt won't do anything to antagonise its American masters, and that includes giving in to terrorists' demands. The life is cheap in China comment was actually made by a Chinese friend of mine, that's the way he sees it.
HeckKER SG American troops have killed 100,000 Iraqis in exchange for those puny hostages.. They are losing the media war.. The media at first sympathised the Iraqis.. now.. ...Haiz..Terrorism was doomed to fail
