I think a data point to be considered is that many of these terrorists fighting to rid the "occupiers" from Iraq are not from Iraq...

re: Now again I ask, what do you object to, the killing of civilians or the method?
****
I'm not discussing suicide bombing in abstract, or attacking civilians in abstract. I'm discussing that guy who killed a hundred Iraqi laborers looking for work (and himself).


OK, then answer in this specific case.

re: My point is whatever it was in the culture/society/religion of the man who killed a bunch of Iraqi laborers and himself is a sickness, and that culture/society/religion should analyse it and remove it. It is like a cancer on the planet - if whatever produced that guy is not cured from within, whatever produced that guy is going to be isolated and destroyed from without.

That's what I'm afraid of.

re: And I don't think coalition troop presence in Iraq caused that cancer.

Then what do you think caused it? Would it have happened without the presence of "coalition" troops?
