>>yeah in the same manner they went out of their way to target and kill 6200 innocent US citizens and other innocent people from 80 countries..... These iliterate morons hold some responsibility for living where terrorists are nurtured. They are guilty too. << victor, your logic is a lot like the logic of the terrorists. the point i would make is that we should not judge ourselves in comparison to evil. when we do, we become evil. perhaps you don't mind being evil. >>These iliterate morons hold some responsibility for living where terrorists are nurtured. They are guilty too.<< yup, they chose the wrong parents. if random chance went a little different, you would be an illiterate moron guilty of choosing your parents wrong. >>I like it here in the US. I like being free,<< totally agree. i also agree many societies are barbaric in comparison. the US has its problems, but not anywhere near the afghanistans in the world. the taliban is composed of some sick sobs. >>but these savages in Aghanistan don't know what freedom is.<< so we should become savages? >>They are either the starving oppressed<< a minute ago they were all "guilty." which is it? an s&m thing, here? >>or they are the fat and happy opressors hiding being the false Islam baloney they profess.<< and these types of folks s/b appropriately targeted if they don't act in civilized ways (stop training terrorists, stop providing fund for terrorists, trn over terrorists, etc.). which, after all, was my point. just b/c some folks bloodlust for revenge doesn't mean thousands of children should be slaughtered in the name of personal gratification - even if the absurdly weak justification that they are "guilty" for being born into hell on earth is put forth to rationalize just another form of terrorism. if terrorism is wrong then it doesn't matter who commits it - it is wrong. it is amazing how fast some shed the basic ideals of america when they are stressed. and sad.
