Excerpt:
I have never understood what exactly is a "terrorist." When the U.S. invaded
Iraq, the locals who objected to being invaded were labelled terrorists or
insurgents.
Now, the residents of Gaza and indeed all the Palestinians who have been
displaced by Israel's annexation of their homeland of centuries, are also
called "terrorists."
Mario observes:
Pretty clueless observations in this day and age for someone writing in a major
newspaper. Besides, the author uses blatant falsehoods from Iraq and Gaza in
order to build his case
Only those who TARGET innocent civilians to cause terror among them to achieve
a social or political objective are correctly labeled terrorists.
Most of the deaths in Iraq were caused by Shia and Sunni extremists targeting
each other's innocent civilians, aided and abetted by Al Qaeda abd Iran. Hamas
is a terrorist organization for firing rockets randomly and indiscriminately at
Israeli villages as well as their suicide bombings of innocent civilians.
Excerpt:
Practise it if you must, but leave others alone and in peace.
Mario responds:
Tell that to some of the extreme atheists on Goanet, who gratuitously attack
religion and religious practices and falsely claim to be intellectually
superior.
