I'm sorry, but you're wrong... My question was: When was the last time anyone from the Christian or Jewish faith strapped on a bomb belt and blew themselves up in a crowd? I didn't know Rudolph wore a bomb belt and blew himself up... you're trying to defend a very weak point, and it's clear you're not going to convince anyone... nice try... GZ

Interesting you had to go back to the 1st century AD for an example. A single nutcase anti-abortion murderer is not the same as tens of thousands of Islamic murderers killing in the name of their religion. Try again.

Hawk...." One.. ask Eric Rudolph why he bombed abortion clinics, or the Olypic stadium in Atlanta. en.wikipedia.org And Jewish terrorism is well documented, both historically, and as part of the founding of Israel (although the latter generally targeted British forces rather than innocent civilians). Look at Masada.. Who were the folks who leaped to their deaths after the Romans trapped them in that hilltop fortress/palace?:".... Hawk IMO mistakes from the past in no way can justify what radical islam is doing today. Eric Rudolph did what he did in his own name not in the name of a billion strong religion/culture...I don't think there is any comparison at all. Those that jumped to their deaths at Masada faced torture likely worse than death by jumping..what else could they do? There were people jumping to their deaths from the Trade towers after radical islam attacked...they chose to jump rather than burn to death slowly...IMO this is not suicide by radicals.
