The Korean media is already hard at work framing the hostage crisis into an anti-US issue so if the hostages do get killed the Korean government can blame the US. However, if this hostage crisis gets dragged out with more hostages being regularly executed, you may see a change in Korean public sentiment that not even a pacifist leftist like President Roh could ignore. Koreans have more backbone than people give them credit for and may demand a dispatch of ROK combat forces to go after these killers if provoked enough. Joshua,
