lil something about the real terrorists

Ozymandias.

I think what you are missing out is the psychology. When your mom is raped, or dad is killed. Its hard to take things to calmly.

No disrespect, but I find your reply terrifying.

I am not saying you need to stay calm. By all means, be angry. Get upset.

Something important to note, that I think all children need to learn, is that anger does not need to result in violence. It is not only possible to be angry, and not resort to physical attacks -- but that is how civilization is built. If you resort to violence every time you get angry, you are acting childish, and uncivilized.

So your father got killed. That's terrible -- but how does violence solve that problem? Even assuming you attack the guilty man, and not an innocent man (remember, you are emotional, not acting rational, and just decided to take the system of justice into your own hands) how do you think that man's sons are going to react? Not only did you just attack their father, but *YOU* just advocated violence in response to emotional stimulus. This is a downward spiral and is barbaric.

Better to remove the rash actions, halt the physical attacks, and respond with a civilized system of justice.

Talal, any comments?

I'm going to guess Talal has nothing to say in response to my uncovering his biased and dishonest collection of quotes. I am going to stop watching this thread for replies -- PM me if anyone wants to pick this thread up again.
