Actually your reply illustrates my point vividly.
When we sit at our computers writing emails from the
comfort of the living room we are far from reality.
Now if your home was invaded, your brothers and father
shot, your mother and sisters raped and your house
blown to bits, what would you do as the lone
survivor? You would want to seek revenge on those
responsible, and if you cannot get at them, then those
who represent them. To this extent, a lot of bad
judgment is used, and anger and emotion cloud the
mind. However, to say you would 'forgive and forget'
would be a lie. It is a question that we someday have
to answer. Why? Because we are passing judgment on
these people. 'Terrorists' are made, not born. I
really do not see any humor in this.
Nobody condones the killing of innocent people. Yet
innocent people get killed all the time. How often do
we see the 'Muslim apologetics' condemn the US
military actions of bombing and killing tens of
thousands of innocent people? Yet when 10 innocent
people get killed by the 'terrorists', albeit
unjustly, we take things out of proportion.
