This line says it all. Our sense of morality has been chipped away at for too many years.
Their acts are not expressions of despair or hopelessness, “cries for help” as the West has come to understand suicide. Nor are they the noble stands of outnumbered warriors, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, or Samson in the Temple.

carefully for yourself. BUMP!
