I do not see how not succumbing to hate/bitterness and bringing the terrorists to justice are MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.
Christian teaching includes BOTH.
He says they won’t have his hatred as if they want it. they don’t want people’s hatred, because that would turn into resolve to solve the problem. They want you to be a politically correct squisling betraying your own. And that, it seems, is what much of Europe is.

And to be fair to the writer of this piece, I don’t think he is saying that we should not bring the perpetrators to justice either.
The guy was probably in the process of figuring out how to get rid of his wife when this happened.
Dude has a crucifixion complex. Saves ISIS the trouble.
I’ll make up for whatever hatred he forgoes.

I recall an article in the NYT Sunday Magazine about a lefty journalist bow hunting for the first time with a friend who was an experienced hunter. Against all probability, the journalist brought down a deer and hurried to the fallen animal. He experienced a strange reaction, one he did not expect. He wrote, "it was gratitude . . . but to whom?"
Stupified as to the meaning of this emotion and lacking a belief in a Creator, he thanked the deer. This is what I see in Paris.
Exactly, they knew before they murdered his wife that neither she, nor him, nor their son, hated them, but they murdered his wife anyway, and they’ll murder him and his son if they get the chance. When they run out infidels, they murder each other. They’re born murderous, and they die murderous. What their victims think or feel about anything has nothing to do with it, murdering is what they do.
To be fair to the writer of this piece, I don’t think he is saying that we should not bring the perpetrators to justice.
I think that there are instances in life where hate is healthy. Some people need it to push them past procrastination. Like a battered woman for instance, or other forms of abuse. And isn’t that part of terrorism?
You can lay down flowers and hope you’re not the next one killed or
you can pick up a gun and make sure you’re not the next one killed.
Reminds me of the little boy and his dad planning to be protected by flowers and candles. I am so glad I live in redneck territory.

I don’t see how the above are mutually exclusive. Why can’t you do both?
There is a condition known as pathological altruism, and leftists are especially susceptible to it. Read about Amy Biehl, and her parents’ reaction to the murderers of their own daughter (which murderers sat in court laughing as Amy’s moans of pain as she died were described), they are case studies in pathological altruism. I have yet to find out if the relatives of these victims would be so pathologically altruistic if it was their very own lives on the line.
I don’t hate these murderous jihadi goat f-ers. They are like cockroaches to be stamped out in a cold blooded way with out hate just disdain for their very existence.
Maybe he can learn to play “Imagine” on the piano and perform it on the street after the next attack.
They don’t want your hatred, they want your submission.
It would seem they’ve already got it.
This should move the subhumans enough to use a sharper knife to remove his head.
