Just in the same way I doubt that the latino acts of terrorism are to do with being insulted over the speedy gonzales cartoons or anything like that, it's probably more of a political thing.
So are there good and bad motivations to carry out terrorist attacks? As long as it's not over cartoons it's better, or what is the point, if there is one?
And my post wasn't adressing you. In fact, I didn't even read your last post. I was adressing the general anti islamic sentiment and the realities that don't make it into the media.
What I'm saying relates to the original post. The original post is about a protest involving freedom of expression towards Islam and it being a result of many Muslims being violently sensitive to cartoons, books and statements made about Islam.
I'm not saying the rest of the terrorism is good terrorism because it doesn't relate to cartoons.
How can you say that the realities you presented don't make it into the media when the links you posted were from 4 different online distributors of media, some of them who are publishers of newspapers and each of them have thousands and thousands of readers?
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.
