The way to defeat terrorism is to have it not work any more. This means
accepting the death and destruction without changing our policy. Agree 100%. We must stay the course, fight the good fight, and not flinch. Unfortunately, the Spanish just showed that terror will influence elections, policies, treaties, and troop deployments. A very, very bad precedent. I fear the world will pay a terrible price for Spain's actions. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I have read this thread with both respect for the (mostly) flame-free discusion and in awe for the lack of information. You should read more non-US media... 1. Spaniards changed their vote not because of terror, but because the government manipulated the information regarding the terror attacks and tried to mislead the people for their own advantage (ring a bell?). 2. Terrorists are not fighting a religious war. They are fighting the US and its allies, not Christianity. |

People like Golda Meyer, Begin were all terrorists(freedomfighters). Again, you're confusing terrorists with rebels. Rebels fight for territory. Terrorists kill indiscriminately. The jews in 1948 were indiscriminate killers. But by your definition the Palestinians are rebels too and what they are doing is legitimate, fighting for their native soil. |

Boy, I really hate to step into this thread, but there were incidents of what would be called "terrorism" today by the jewish factions in pre-Israeli palestine. The bombing of the King David Hotel in 1946 comes to mind. John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) |

Palestinians are rebels too and what they are doing is legitimate, fighting for their native soil. I, for one, do not blame the Palestinians for fighting for their land. However, they have lost the moral high ground with their moronic, murderous, suicidal tactics. Where once we saw rebels, all we see now are terrorists. Damn shame, too. They very nearly had world opinion on their side. (Same thing happened to the IRA, by the way. Had they held strictly to fighting the British, they might have pulled it off. Instead, they started blowing up innocent civilians, and lost public opinion worldwide.) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
