They will never win........but until they catch-up with the rest of us, we will continue to see atrocities like this unfortunately.
There have been the same images from "those parts" of the world which tore equally as hard at the heartstrings. A father is a father - regardless of location.one picture, a thermal blanket lying over a small body and next to the body was a teddy bear. No person deserves this...
sickening news indeed & it seems no end in sight for these attacks.On the plus side if there is one , this is an unsophisticated attack & says much about the threat we are facing but don't expect politicians to react in a reasonable manner.....surely now , post chilcot , we can have a sensible debate about the causes of " terror" & what can be done to prevent further madness on both sidesWhile this is true it'll be tough, or extremely drawn out, to get past this....
Sadly though our 21st century liberties will be eroded in the name of protection from this too.
Been watching the news - one picture, a thermal blanket lying over a small body and next to the body was a teddy bear. No person deserves this...
I agree with every word said but there are civilian deaths caused by this country and US on an even bigger scale which we must not forget. These deaths are easier to overlook as they are more remote and not publicised.
Easy to call it terrorism but it's war really.
It's a very fine line though isn't it Clive? We know we will definately kill civilians but it just feels a bit more remote as they were not targeted. Then there is a question of scale with our country and US killing many thousands in other countries. How much is one European life worth? 100 lives in collateral damage?
Don't get me wrong that truck driver was totally wrong.
It's the human condition I'm afraid.
Whilst I have to agree with you to an extent Frank, the majority of US or British responsibility for civilian deaths is, in the main, collateral damage. I accept that the terms of the "war" itself may be suspect, yet I will still find it hard to accept that US or British forces have deliberately targeted innocents. I will stand corrected.
These attacks are random, indiscriminate and deliberately target the helpless, unarmed, women, children & babies, the disabled, and all that get hit, for the sole purposes of terror in its purest form.
There is no excuse, or reasoned defence for this behavior, these perpetrators should go to hell, directly, without passing GO and no virgins, end of.
JMHO as a human being.
