\in response to Scooterman's message, as quoted after my reply\
Why don't you go take a cold shower, Scoot. I wanted to refrain from talking politics
not only on this list but especially now. So why don't you do the same?
I hope you are just out of your senses and reason when you wrote this.
Such words as yours sound very,very much like the words of those terrorists. By _your_
reasoning as rephrased by me below, today's attacks at US are made legitimate, because
"Afghan terrorist murdered innocent civilians [undoubtable, except the "Afghan" now].
Thus, kill all Afghans [or wahtever country]". The terrorists thought just the same:
"US, their secret services, or US corporations caused deaths of many innocent people
[flame me if you want but not on this list. I stay behind what I wrote but it doesn't
belong here]. Thus, kill all US". Don't you see it? It's the same!
It's a tragedy, and I feel very sorry for the people there. I have friends there too,
PDMLers and others. I was very afraid for all of them. I don't condone terrorism at
all, it's ugly and evil and wrong, but words as yours only give the terrorist a reason.
