The time has come to address the real root cause of suicide bombing: incitement by certain religious and political leaders who are creating a culture of death and exploiting the ambiguous teachings of an important religion

I do believe some people would debate the ambiguity of the 'teachings'.

[Chu Gary]

I'm awestruck! Some words of sense out of the mouth of Alan Dershowitz. Simply amazing.

"Islamist young people are in love with death, claim some imams; but it is these leaders who are arranging the marriages between the children and the bomb belts."

It's the leaders, old psycho's like Bin Laden and Arafat that introduce their brainwashed stooges to this suicide cult.

That culture needs to be dragged kicking and screaming into the modern world.

I am from "Alan D. Country" and mostly revile his views. I actually had to sit accross from him at an L/Bird M/Johnson (Celtics/Leakers) playoff-- late 80's- pre-kid) whle he literally spewed a hot dog and yapped on his cell phone! Let's talk revolting!! This is the most intelligent thing he has said, and in spite of the fact that he makes me sick, he's been a tolerably good Israeli voice of reason since 9/11

Alan Dershowitz, for all his liberal spewing, did receive a solid Jewish education early in life. Thanks to this he occasionally exhibits a glimmer of good common sense.

There is more hope for him than there is for Thomas ("I Heart Prince Abdullah") Friedman.

I thought Alan Dershowitz was in lock-step with the Socialists. Has he converted?

Dershowitz merely hates Islam more than Christianity.

"The time has come to address the real root cause of suicide bombing: incitement by certain religious and political leaders "

I disagree. The leaders aren't the root cause, they are the instruments.

To find the root cause you must take the next step and ask WHY the leaders are inciting suicide bombers.

Are they doing it for money, power, love, revenge, religious visions, boredom, bipolar disorders, self-hatred, ...

[Bedford Forrest]

Not exactly an original cut on the gutter sect [Islamofascism]of murder and various other forms of destruction. Moreover, every so often even a cuckoo clock tells the right time. And when, exactly, may we expect the suddenly empathic Dearthowitz to level a similar indictment against the perpetrators of the American Holocaust, the "pro choice" baby killers and their enablers? I am not holding my breath.

[claudiustg]

Wake me up when he comes out in support of the 2nd Amendment.

[Gkubly]

Dershowitz is very outspoken hawk on this issue and anything to do with Israel. I was amazed when I 1st read some of his articles regaurding terrorism.

BINGO:

That culture needs to be dragged kicking and screaming into the modern world.

That is the problem. These scumbags publicly go out and praise the murderers of schoolgirls and infants, and the western world shrugs and says, "freedom of speech."

Western civilization was ascendant when it would not tolerate such evil.

The only major religion whose believers can be considered criminally insane.
