You use your karma rationale to say that anyone that you disagree with had it coming to them. That is a real mis-application of Buddhism imo. Isn't Karma all about self responsibility? It seems like you are using your Buddhist principles of self responsbibility to a general situation. You sound just like our new fiend Cyprian every time you condemn the innocent people of the bombing. Karma becomes a very self righteous concept when people try to pass along blame to the victims of a disaster. I am sure that not every person that was killed in the explosion led such terrible lives that they deserved to be killed. It's not the way it should be. I guess the 200K people in Asia and India that were killed by the tsunami deserved what they got? Of course not. I just don't think your karmic charm works on a general basis. I think it only applies to the individual.
