I think it is time we realize the implications when we refer to these
religious radicals as "suicide bombers". That term carries connotations of a
person sacrificing themselves for a worthy cause. Since when is killing
innocent people a worthy cause? Even the much debated Koran says that
innocent people are off limits for revenge.
We need to call a spade a spade. These misguided people are without a doubt
"Homicide Bombers".
They are in the eyes of any religion, murders and will be judged as such by
whatever higher being they believe in.

My humble opinion.......

Hmmmm

Is this meant to be a joke.

So basically it's ok to murder a number of completely innocent people to try
and prevent someone becoming a suicide bomber.  Interesting idea, maybe we
should try this in America.  Anyone who commits Murder should have there
entire family executed.  Just imagine your Cousin who you haven't even met,
decided to get drunk and runs someone over, oh well, it's only fair that you
and your children should be executed as a result.

How about examining why so many people feel so passionately against the
west, to resort to killing themselves to kill others.
Unfair and unjust actions of the west (specifically the US) only cause to
motivate normal people to become terrorists.

The American government is responsible for the training and supplying of
arms to Iraq and Afghanistan, because at the time Iraq was fighting Iran and
Afghanistan was fighting Russia.  Maybe the US should examine it's own
policies, before declaring a war on terrorism, a situation that it created.

*** Proposal ***
-
For every act of suicide terrorism inflected against American citizens, the
CIA should clandestinely arrange for the execution of the terrorist's
immediate family.
-
Abhorrent as this may seem, it's quite possibly the only thing that can
vitiate the incentives currently afforded these misguided individuals.
-
Right now, a prospective suicide bomber is motivated by the prospect of the
family being enriched monetarily by his actions and the prestige of being
regarded as a 'Martyr'. That thinking is likely to change radically if he
knows his actions would surely result in his wife, children and parents
being murdered in retribution by the Mossad or the CIA.
-
If we're going to call this a war on "Terrorism", than we should start
fighting it like one!
