What is our world coming to!?

So I don't know if anyone has been keeping track, but this morning on my way out I heard on CNN that one of the hostages was killed by the Taliban. (For those who don't know what I am referring to, basically the Taliban has been holding 23 South Korean hostages in effort to get the Afghans to release captured Taliban members.) The repercussions of the escalating problems are hurting everyone!! I can't stand it anymore, but I have no suggestions on what needs to be done to fix it.
