Avoiding the obvious example in European history, here in the 'new' world, we learned that a really good place to start recognizing basic rights of people with 'African' origins, for instance, was to stop calling them 'niggers'. (FWIW) -JCJ

Like it or not, we are all in danger, and you worry about a name?

The problem with the name thing is that unfortunately, it will include good people in such description.

"Terrorists", on the other hand, are the people you are talking about. This is a defined term that describes the specific criminal actions of very extreme radicals.

There are terrorists in all nations.

We are all from planet earth, personally I do not believe in borders, flags and such. To me those are tools of politicians to fool good people, I do not trust politicians of any color, flavor, or stature, they are all dishonest by definition. (if there is an extreme right winger out there, please put me on "ignore", I do not intend to engage in a fart war, "a la SI").

There is no difference between a terrorist from some extreme Arab sect, a German neo-nazi, an American white supremacist, or a Latin American pseudo-communist... (or whatever). They are all criminals.

Now... if those bastards can be found, then... don't call them names, just bazooka the sob's to pieces. Save your breath.

Dear Yaacov: I know you are a good guy, and I know all about the terror and who did it. What we REALLY need is a SPACE INVASION to bring all HUMANOIDS together. Looks like that is about what it will take to wake people up. I have seen many things in my life which I dont want to go into publicly but I will say at this stage in my life I have come to judge each person individually regardless of race, creed or color. That doesnt mean I am going to accept a shitass as my brother, but I wont call someone a shitass unless they are. JDN
