Is anybody looking for the "root causes" of the behavior of the people who have been bomboing Iraq for the past 11 years? Of course not.
When we bomb whoever we're going to bomb in the coming war, will anyone be wondering what is bothering us? No. We think about what we want all the time. We talk about it all the time. That way we don't have to think about, or talk about, what anybody else in the world is thinking or talking about.
But that isn't going to stop them from acting upon their thoughts--just as we do.
It will if they're dead or conquered.
Not if they're dead.
There aren't many human beings who place as little value on their own lives as these terrorists do. They are like a cancer.
If the only way to eradicate terrorism is to kill every terrorist, then we (the civilized world) will simply have to kill every terrorist.
I am confused. Are these terrorists "soldiers" for the Arab and Muslim world or are they not? I see all sorts of messages from Arab states and Muslim clerics disassociating themselved from Bin Laden, but then I see messages like yours which seem to say the opposite.
It seems to me that one cannot have it both ways. Does Bin Laden represent the Arabs or doesn't he? If he does, then the Arab states and Islam are responsible for what he did. If he does not, then he is nothing more than a maniac and a criminal in the catagory of a Charles Manson or a Ted Kaczynski or a Symbionese Liberation Army and his "political agenda" should be taken about as seriously as we take the agendas of those people.
I don't care if they wonder or not.
So long as they know that trying mass murder as an argument will bring them instant and permanent death.
That is also something else that I don't care if they wonder about or not.
It's those who collude with the bombers by making excuses and explaining away their evil, justifying it, that need psychiatric help.
