a big difference is that in the examples you mention, the suicide bombers all attack military targets whereas the Palestinian bombers are killing civilians indiscriminately

The question is, what drives people to do this? My answer is desperation. If there was no other way, anything goes. Believe me. Let me drive the point in. If somehow, Iraq got control of the US, and forced us to be second class citizens, our children are dying, and we hardly have any military weapons, a couple of us guys would band together to destroy them in any way. Even suicide bombing Iraq. And then we'd be praising and calling him courageous and selfless. Come on, nobody is anymore different. All of us can be driven into desperation. Ever read Lord of the Flies? Ever watched the Pearl Harbor movie and how they agreed to go on a suicide mission at the end? Ever watched Armageddon and bruce Willis agreed to stay and blow up the asteroid? Ever watched Independence Day and how that old guy drove his fighter jet into the alien ship because his missiles won't launch? They're all suicide bombers. ----- Original Message ----- From: "mark smyth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2002 7:08 PM Subject: gaza et al > can somebody tell me why? > > the Palestinians and doing what they are doing according to the media ( which is disgraceful before anyone jumps on me) because of the Irazeli occupation of the gaza strip > obtained during the 6 day war(please feel free to correct me if i am wrong) > > I'm fairly ignorant about the situation there (as i have said before), so why don't the Israeli's move out of that area and stop the conflict, if for nothing else the safety of their people, its obvious by now that the Palestinians will never stop? > > Also what is the deal between Israel and america (there is obviously something going on)? > > In the same way there is something going on between the US and the UK (the way the UK follows the US regardless of policy is disgracecful in my opinion),is it just to bolster the UK's position with Europe? > > > Any opinions to all my questions, would be greatly recieved > > Thanks > > Mark > > Mark Smyth > Certified Coldfusion Developer > > > ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
