I fail to understand the logic that sees the "terrorist" as some kind of aberant individual who participates in his mayhem for no good reason, this is usually the thinking of those who can readily validate the use of superior weapons on those who are not equally advantaged.
If the middle eastern "terrorists" were anywher near equal to America in terms of military power they would have surely killed many more of us than they did on 9-11, they see themselves and their "work" as being justified by the fact that the US government's military has killed in far greater numbers to further their cause. The notion that killing anyone is justified by political aims is wrong, no matter who is doing the killing.
It has become common to accept "our" killing but not the "other guy's", oh I can already feel the heat rising in those super patriots who attend their church services on Sunday only to suffer the amnesia of gospel on Monday. "Our" military has killed tens of thousands of innocents, to argue the finer points of who should get killed and when is merely showing an ignorance of those Christian principals so many American's come here (CD) to boast about.
It's obvious in reading many of these posts that very few of you value human life. You talk about slaughtered people simply as a bargaining chip in a big game of poker. Without the basic premise that human life is of value, there is really no point in discussing any of this, because you are simply looking for another scene from the 'Saw' series of movies to entertain you. I'll bet most of you don't give a rats ass about the 'plight' of Middle Easterners or their religion, or anyone else for that matter. You just want to be entertained and the Middle Easterners are simply your willing actors this year. Don't forget to clap for the next slaughter scene. And don't forget the popcorn either.

[quote=ChrisC;13863147]
The same folks who applaud the killing of hundreds of innocent men, women, and children by terrorists, condemn the execution of one mass murderer.
I wouldn't expect a person who thinks that way to be capable of any half-way logical thought. Those types will never understand that killing someone who did nothing to deserve to die is wrong. QUOTE]
Were you thinking when you wrote these lines?
I could think of many situations that actually occur where you would most likely contradict your own statements.
What does a guy's presence on wiki got to do with the Truth?
Is that where you go for culture too?
No. But since I don't know everything, I consult sources outside my own mind for additional data. People who know everything and can readily identify the truth ought to walk in the shoes of someone who does not know everything, and see what it is like.

So you support killing people who did nothing to deserve to die?
My statement is this, once again: I do not support killing people who did nothing to deserve to die. End of story.
This entire blog reminds me of John Rambo & Rocky Balboa ..i believe these 2 characters are deep inside us somewhere .. watch First Blood and u'll get the idea .. like what i said to a friend moments ago .. we humans are fighting since time immemorial and will fight till the last day .. the question here is ..What the heck are we fighting for ? .. everything is going to end anyway ! .. so why not accept the fact and live in peace untill the final hour .. we embark on a mission that has no past, present and future ..yet we fight to prove a point ..why? what? .. how? these are the questions that has many answers .. pick the ones that suits u best my fellow beings ..seriously ! the choices that we make are propelled by series of emotional clout and that could well be your answer and my answer ..but with twists and turns ..however terror is nothing but a mirror that reflects fear .. fear of all kinds .. what do we do to control this emotion .. we fight ! ..how ? depends on the way its portrayed and perceived by an individual .. sigh ! .. however IMHO theres only one thing that can supress this fear .. and thats fear itself ! ..go figure

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's howwinning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointingfingerssaying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that! Rocky Balboa
