Euna Lee and Laura Ling, two U.S. Journalists for Al Gore’s San Francisco-based Current TV arrived at Burbank’s Bob Hope Airport at dawn along with Former President Bill Clinton. Last March Euna Lee and Laura Ling were facing charges for illegal entry in North Korea. Clinton’s diplomatic trip to North Korea secured their release nearly five months after their arrests.

Lee emerged from the jetliner first and was greeted by husband Michael Saldate and 4-year-old daughter Hana. She hugged the girl and picked her up before all three embraced in a crushing hug as TV networks beamed the poignant moment live.

Soldiers found beheaded

I would like to share some rather disturbing photos I received from my email recently. I would highly recommend not looking at these photos if you dislike grotesque images. I’m not really sure how these photos ended on my email and where was its source. But please, if you don’t want to loose your appetite then feel free not to view the images below.

There are so many reasons why I’m posting these images on this blog and one of them is because this is would serve as a wake up call for most of us who just think that life is just about having fun and enjoyment. Life offers the opposite as well since nowadays high profile crimes and violence are all over the place. These images highly display the distorted and cruel acts of rebels and terrorists but I won’t be able to confirm where these photos originated from. I tried searching in Google but to no avail. It makes us wonder why anybody would even do such a thing. If you are fighting for something then do we really have to resort to killing and even beheading our enemies just to get what we want? If we have our own religion and if this forms our very being then where is the fear of performing such crimes? And what is our government doing to counteract these acts of cruelty from terrorists? Should we follow the concept of an eye for an eye in such situations?
