Aren't all terrorists of low intelligence? Any person who thinks that killing innocent people is an intelligent method of arguing your case is, by default, of the lowest order of intelligence.
Hmmm whilst my initial thought was too agree whole heartedly....however when you think about it are they really of low intelligence or just bloody committed to there cause. :question
If we send our troops too a country and blow the naff out of something and innocents are killed we (actually normally America) say its casualties of war...whilst i'm not comparing a so called legitimate war with what we call terrorism it basically boils down too the same thing,we fight for what we believe in....well isn't that all there doing.
And just in case the fact terrorists blow up/kill women and children is mentioned, well were also guilty of that. :-?
Without voicing my own opinions yet... just to clarify that current western values see a clear distinction between attacking a military target and causing civilian death in the process, and targeting civilian population on purpose in order to terrorise the population.
This distinction is the difference between being a controversial Prime Minister or President, and being a war criminal facing trial at the Hague.
Have said that, these are current values. 60 Years ago we thought it was perfectly legitimate for us to bomb the German cities in response to them bombing London...
Hmmm the yanks seemed pretty laid back about dropping bombs on civilians in well just about every war they have been involved in.
Don't get me wrong im not in favour of terrorists whether they be bearded cave dwellers or smartly dressed presidents there all evil small minded pricks....they both do what they believe is right.
Unfortunately we cant shoot bush (legally) and we cant find his mate bin laden....so were pretty much buggered.
QED. My point exactly!!! George W Bush = IQ of an amoeba.
You may disagree with Bush's policies, although his current stance on the creation of a Palestinian state may well, if achieved, make the world a far safer place, but the fact remains that he became F-102 fighter pilot in the Texas Air National Guard after graduating from Yale University in 1968. You cannot technically have a low IQ and qualify as a fighter pilot. Therefore the above is factually incorrect but a political jibe with which people may or may not agree.
As far as the difference between the military and terrorism is that the former will take steps to avoid collateral civilian damage where possible, but it is a sad fact that sometimes tragedies happen whatever the planning. The alternative, of course, is not to take any military action at all, but that is a judgment call. Terrorists, particularly these days (note that even the murderous IRA and other groups like ETA at least used telephoned warnings in advance of bombings to reduce casualties). Suicide bombers killing civilians is far removed from conventional warfare. On September 11, there was at least one child to my knowledge on one of the two aircraft that was flown into the twin towers. It is beyond reasonable doubt that the terrorists would have seen that child and yet consciously still continued their mission. Thus, in my book, they are child killers as well as terrorists.
