"To the West, martyrdom has a really bad connotation because of suicide bombers who call themselves martyrs," she said. "Really, martyrdom is actually something that historically was quite noble

Call me closed-minded, I couldn't take this raving idiot seriously after this point.

These leftists are so feeble-minded, it’s tough not to pitty them. If they weren’t playing such high stakes poker here, that’s about all I’d do, pitty them. The truth is though, they are playing for keeps, and we better not lose sight of that.

Amanpour’s power of discernment is non-existant. At no time in history has indescriminant killing been noble. It wasn’t noble in 500 BC. It wasn’t noble in 1500 AD. It’s not noble today.

The acts she thinks were noble, are today forbidden by the Geneva Convention, something she and her fellow travelers seem to think is very important when panties appear on heads. But when it comes to mass murder of innocent men, women and children completely unknown to the attacker, it’s just a tactic that has fallen out of favor. Wow!

CNN, in fact the whole leftist Marxist movement in the United States (and outside as well), has contracted an illness. Reasoned productive modern states that follow the rules are bad. Whacked out terrorist orgainizations that kill thousands for little or no reason at all, are good.

Beheadings, dismemberments by detonations in shopping centers, the destroying of religous icons and churches, the call to kill every last man woman and child of one nationality, it’s all okay. Why in olden times, this would have been viewed to be noble.

Amanpour, you’re not just a poor excuse for a reasoned reporter, you’re a disgusting excuse for a human being, and ultimately, you fail the test if this is truly what you believe.

Six hours of this tripe...? Fat chance I’ll be watching it. But then maybe I should. The whole world should know what these traitors are thinking. If they’re brazen enough to present it to the adult populace, you can rest assured they are doing their damndest to shove it down our kids throats at our schools and universities.

She is talking about martyrs, not suicide bombers. She says "suicide bombers who call themselves martyrs". Real martyrs are noble: the soldier who falls on a grenade, the Christian who is killed for his beliefs, a mother who carries her child to term even though it means her own death.
