Pek Chek is an understatement.
But thank you guys for finally making some sensible posts. For a
minute there I thought I had just written a load of rubbish nobody
can understand.
If I were to answer the question myself...
YES, I would agree to go for the mission. YES, the ends does
justify the means.
Why? Do I want to kill women and children?
Of course not. Beisdes, the point is NOT to kill the women and
children. It is to use them to bargain for the life of LBS.
But even if I don't go, the commander will someone else to go. So
this suicide terrorist mission is going ahead with or without me.
But if I am there, I won't be shooting at the hostages. So with me
there there will be one less gun firing at women and
children.
The main reason I would go is because I would do what it takes to
continue to fight for the freedom of my country. Preventing the
execution of LBS by the Japs is one sure way the fight will go on.
If we don't win our freedom, then the Japs will continue to
slaughter innocent Singaporeans for a long time to come.
And if the Japs come to their senses, then no women or children
need to get hurt during the mission. We would only release the
hostages and surrender after LBS is back in the hands of the
resistance forces. Of course, none of us hostage takers should
expect to go home alive.
