Afghan Guards Suspected Of Attacking S. Korea Base

SEOUL - A rocket attack on a South Korean base in Afghanistan this week was apparently carried out by disgruntled former Afghan security personnel, a senior South Korean official said Feb. 11.

Five rockets were fired at the base housing South Korean aid workers and troops in the northern province of Parwan late Feb. 8 and two landed inside.


The suspected culprits were former Afghan security personnel who had their jobs guarding the base given to other guards, Deputy Defence Minister Chang Kwang-Il said.

"Afghan authorities believe the former security personnel were responsible," Chang said.

The attack coincided with a visit to the base by Defence Minister Kim Kwan-Jin.

Hundreds of aid workers, protected by South Korean soldiers, launched a mission last July to provide Parwan residents with medical services, jobs training and other services.

South Korea sent 210 engineering and medical troops to Afghanistan in 2002, but withdrew them in late 2007 after insurgents took 23 South Korean church volunteers hostage and murdered two of them. Seoul said the withdrawal was already planned and not part of any deal with the kidnappers.

It says troops deployed in the latest mission will not fight except to protect the aid workers.

They are some of the world's craziest Christian Zealots. It wouldn't surprise me if they treated Muslims as people to be despised

Agree, Koreans are some of the most radical group i've ever seen, even more than Japanese.

Their Ultra-Nationalists just can't stop claiming that Northern Part of China belongs to them and they have invented everything that in the Chinese civilization.
 
Koreans are loud, annoying, low class, complaining, liars and act like the whole world owes them money. Even Japanese people cannot stand them. They treat women like sh*t, worse than Japan. South Korea is worst because they're rich but living under an oppressive regime, and North Korea is better only because they're living under a poor repressive regime.

We need to slap them down and let them know where they belong.
 
Koreans are the most fanatical Christians.
How South Korean soldiers to deal with the Somali pirates? They will do the same thing in Afghanistan.

Sorry to burst your bubble but the Taliban are not the pirates you see in the Expendables. Don't underestimate them.
