>> This proves Dan's point that some do indeed hate and wish to kill us.

That there are many who hate America is obvious. However, most people here seem to ignore that anger and hatred is not a black and white thing. There are levels as to how much someone dislikes you. For example, my neighbor downstairs smokes like a chimney. The smell of the smoke fills the whole stairway even though his door is closed and many times the smoke makes its way via the vent to my bathroom. I hate this. But not enough to go and kill him. Being happy of the misfortune of a country you deem has done you wrong, is not on the same level as planning a suicide attack.

>> You seem to be saying that the victim is responsible for the crime.

More often than not the victim has some degree of responsibility. If I get involved with a drug gang and then get killed in a drive by shooting, I am somewhat responsible.
