Turkey Joins Philippines and Spain Won't Truck Goods to U.S. in Iraq
2004-08-02
Turkey's truckers association said Monday it would stop delivering goods to U.S. forces in Iraq, in what appeared to be a direct response to insurgents' brutal, videotaped killing of a Turkish hostage and an attempt to win freedom for two other captives.
We'll remember this, Turkey. How nice that the EU didn't admit your sorry @ss. It's beginning to look like Turkey is not really any sort of moderate Muslim country at all. Collaborating with the terrorists, honor killings murders, marrying rape victims to their attackers, repressing the Kurds. It's all very clear now.
A video posted Monday on the Internet showed militants pumping three bullets into the head of a Turkish hostage, identified as Murat Yuce, who was kidnapped in Iraq. It was not clear when the shooting took place. Before he was killed, the man said he worked for the Turkish company Bilintur. In Ankara, Bilintur told The Associated Press that the catering firm has an employee named Murat Yuce in Iraq, but had no knowledge that he had been killed.
I guess he got off easy with the headshots instead of the hacksaw.
