Would you have done what those 2 journalists did to get released? - GoFuckYourself.com

The release came shortly after the broadcast of a video in which the pair read statements saying they had embraced Islam with the Prophet Mohammed as their leader.

Im not sure I would have done - Im a stubborn old bastard, and the more I am pushed the more I dig my heals in. I honestly think I would have taken the bullet. The only thing that would make me do it is if it meant the other guy wouldnt have got out as well.

You're confusing stupid with stubborn. I'm stubborn, too, and I don't cave easily but why the fuck would I give up my life instead of just mouthing a few words? To say you'd take a bullet first is idiotic on a grand scale. You're going to give up the rest of your life and everything you have for the nothingness of death because you're too "stubborn" to say a few words you don't really mean? Your death would mean nothing; you wouldn't break their organization or their spirit, you wouldn't turn the tide of the conflict, you wouldn't stop them from capturing and beheading more journalists, you wouldn't bring Islamic terrorists networks to their knees.

It's a moot point, anyway, because no matter how tough or stubborn someone thinks he is, if he has the normal sense of self-preservation, if he's any kind of survivor, he's going to take the option that keeps himself alive when he's staring down the barrel of a gun or feeling the edge of a knife on his throat.

I'm not afraid of death but I'm not stupid enough to hurry myself into the grave to soothe my pride.

Indeed it's not good rushing into death.

lol - That sounds like a reasonable alternative - I will go with that instead of the bullet then - lol

Seriously I think I would go out with with my knee firmly embeed in someones groin and see it as my little bit for the war effort.

scottybuzz · 08-27-2006, 06:54 AM

yeh damian, if they were however to make you live like islam for the rest of your life then I can see how taking your life would be more worthwile.

fris · 08-27-2006, 06:55 AM

i would have done anything but suck their dicks

Yes because being stupid and having your head cut off and broadcast on the internet is so much better than just saying what you need to say to get released.

It's one thing if what you say might get others killed but there is no harm in what they did. I'm sturbborn too but Im' not stupid.

AmeliaG · 08-27-2006, 07:02 AM

I don't really get what the point is of dominating someone into saying something religious which they don't mean.

georgeyw · 08-27-2006, 07:11 AM

I'd say whatever the hell they wanted...Then once out i'd sell my story for 'a whole lotta money'.

You would have taken the bullet anyway. Since you're gay, you would have been shot (if they could get away with it of course).

poisson · 08-27-2006, 07:17 AM

In those cases, brain get into survival mode. I would have done alot worst then that to get out of this.

Sorry, but I don't agree. I think you'd do a whole hell of a lot worse than that to save yourself. Unless you're suicidal, the will to live is strong. Most people probably couldn't even imagine what they'd be willing to do to stay alive in a situation like that.

Reading a statement saying you had embraced Islam with the Prophet Mohammed as your leader is a fucken cakewalk. I'd do it with a smile on my face and a "I heart Osama" t-shirt on.

andrej_NDC · 08-27-2006, 07:35 AM

I would do anything so stay alive, so would you and anyone who will claim otherwise.

SomeCreep · 08-27-2006, 07:36 AM

To live, I would've tattooed "JIHAD" across my chest and grown out my beard like Bin Laden.

Haha... Bullshit dude. Just because they said the words and said they converted, doesn't mean they believed that they were. In other words, they talked bullshit about a religion they don't believe in, and got freed. Sorry man... every one of us lot here would have done the same. What you believe in your heart isn't always what comes out of your mouth.

It's so they can save face.. It's likely they figured out that if the journalists were killed, then it would bring even more negative response to their cause. So allowing them to claim they converted to Islam gives the tango's a easy way out that they can claim to have won.

Sly · 08-27-2006, 12:19 PM

No. I would never say something I didn't believe, even to save my life. Its the principal of the matter!

Get real. The list of things I wouldn't do to save my life from some radical nut job is pretty limited. If ol' Abdul wanted to experience a gentile blowjob before taking a Israeli rocket up his ass I'd be on my knees humming the Star Spangled Banner.

LOL take a bullet or repeat a few words on camera

cool1 · 08-27-2006, 12:29 PM

I would have doen the same as themafter all its just words. not like there is anyone who can really hold you to it once you are released.
I like DEA's idea

Digipimp · 08-27-2006, 12:30 PM

they didnt do anything wrong considering fox news paid to have them put in a fake hostage situation

MetaMan · 08-27-2006, 12:31 PM

whatever turn muslim, survive and go kill some muslims, its funner that way and you end up alive!

Sarah_Jayne · 08-27-2006, 12:36 PM

When I heard the story I wondered what would happen to someone that was a strong Christian. Afterall, they are aren't suppose to deny God but on the other hand you would hope God would let you off just that once.
