The Nick Berg incident blew my mind completely.

I was planning a trip to S.E. Asia and Cathay Pacific had some add-on cities so for $300 extra I could fly to/from Islamabad, Pakistan from Hong Kong to see some of that country for a few days before returning to North America. Well, I am jewish, and it blew my mind when I was considering flying there that people want to kill me just because of my faith. I have never in my life been confronted with that reality before. The last words Nick said before they cut his head off was "I am a Jew".
