You want to make some political point, to me that makes you as inhuman as the bombers, real people died - maybe their last thoughts were something as banal as wanting a sandwich or needing a piss and then they were blown apart or died in flames. I don't give a fuck about the rights and wrongs or the politics, if you think this proves a point about America or about Islam then you're as fucked in the head as the killers. This, as with all the other atrocities we've heard about over the last few years is purely and simply evil, what kind of a human being hears about an atrocity likes this and then says the people who died deserved it? How are you different than the cnuts who danced in the streets when they heard about 9/11? How can you even think about even one person dying like this and cold-bloodedly factor it into being a lesson for the pakis or anybody else? Repulsive!
Sorry doc, I may have read it wrong but it sure seems that you think once an atrocity such as this is posted there's little to nothing worth discussing. This isn't a newsroom!
Yes you are right that many innocent people have died and will continue to die in the name of allah, and whether or not that's palatable to me, you, or anyone else. And you are also right that these terrible things do not just happen by chance, each is both cause and effect, influencing and influenced by world events and world politics. That does not alter the fact that they're happening.
As to the pathological haters that persistently claim 911 and other victims of islamic terror 'deserve' it, especially if they're American or Jewish...sorry again, but that sort of thing has been an ongoing event on TD for as long as I've been here. While such things are repugnant to reason, I do not need to mention who the prime movers are because I suspect every poster with more than half a brain already knows who they are. Do these people 'deserve' at least a passing reprimand, or should they be tolerated because decent people not just on TD but around the world are already conditioned to expect no less from savages?
I believe there was a recent thread specifically asking if the US had it coming, and I do not recall much that could be rated as outrage from any of the usual suspects at such an inflammatory proposal. If you are aware of the thread in question, why do you think that is?
