Of course the Media would say that they "hunted" them down. Thats what THEIR opinion of the situation is. The fact of the matter is that these insurgents have killed many before and it just so happens that they may have been responsible for the death of Tim O' Donnell. Even if they werent, The SAS have put a stop to them being able to kill again. And in saying that theyve put us Kiwis in Danger?.. We were always going to be. We arent a nation that stands back and doesnt get involved. We're always there to help. Thats what KIWIs do.
