ng, Remember strict fundamentalist (insert religion name here) is not tolerant of any other religion. Be it RC, Muslim or JW thay all try to expand at the expense of the other religions. Another thing they want is control and the final thing they want is your money.
So you get the wealthy Benladen fundamentalist for Islam who works with the Taleban fundamentalist state who will not allow any other religion in the country and you get the most potential for damage.
Look back to when we had the Christian sects running our lives, people were burned at the stake in the USA for religious crimes, Spain, Italy etc. In time the people threw off these controls with almost all religions.
At the heart of this was the appeasement mentality. The planes yesterday were taken over with thin bladed knives that were probably sneaked on board in the spines of metal bound briefcases. The resolution of the x-ray scanners would not pick out such a flat blade againt the metal side slats of the case. They then use threats to life of stewardesses or other passengers to gain cockpit access, all the while the pilots are acting on instructions to allow them to do this to save lives of those at hand, once cockpit control is gained the crashes follow.

Now the pilots will be ordered not to do this. Pilots will allow the others to be killed on the plane to keep cockpit control.
We will probably get armed US Marshals on board flights soon, if not today.

>Bob, methinks you should not be so quick in casting blame on religion...Today's abominable acts are those of psychotic individuals banded together in a cowardly act resulting in the death of many innocent victims.<

What you are overlooking is religion's contribution to the development of psychosis. What happens when, due to moral doctrine dictates the treatment of breasts as sexual organs, and an infant becomes convinced that it is condemned to Hell for engaging in an act of incest when suckling at its mother's breast.
