That someone risking their life for change is always justifiable.
It's a really stupid thing to say.
I think you're missing the obvious point that he's making, which is that the suicide bomber has made the justification inside his own head.
It's really not that difficult to understand, unless you're really trying hard not to. Justification, like most any other human thought process, is subjective, not objective.
Of course.
But speaking practically it makes no sense in the context of that conversation to be talking about the justification going on inside someone's own head.
If that's the case every action is justified.
I could go into a Jewish community forum and say Hitler's actions were justifiable. Then do you think it would be weird if they were offended?
If they were offended then they must just be trying hard to not understand that I mean Hitler's actions were justified inside his own mind and not to myself.
Apart from involuntary ticks and primitive body movements like a heart beating or lungs breathing what examples are there of an unjustifiable action that someone takes where they do something that they've decided is wrong?
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
