Nobody wins a war where ALL sides are "not afraid to die for what they believe in".

In war, 'collateral damage' cannot be "prevented".

this is a very different war, in which only one side fights fair, one side fights to protect the other fights to destroy.

Sounds a lot like cancer, but strides are being made, a little at a time. Keep up a little bit of the hope there, Sheriff, all is not lost yet.

Imagine if Martin Luther King or Ghandi decided to be terrorists, would we even know their names? probably not. They are heroes because they advocated NON-VIOLENT change. If they had tried to lead terrorists for their causes they would have only hurt their causes. instead Martin Luther King was able to make the KKK the bad guys, and Ghandi was able to make the British the bad guys, and their strategy was far more effective.

Imagine if homosexuals were blowing up buildings and doing suicide attacks, murdering heterosexuals at weddings. Would that help or hurt the gay equality cause? It would certainly hurt it.

The definition of terrorism according to the Oxford English dictionary.

Quote:
the unofficial or unauthorized use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.
I despair of the UK and USA they are probably responsible for more terrorist attacks than any other nations in the world.
If you are going to dish it out in the pursuit of money then be prepared to get it back occasionally.
The ****ing media in this country turn my stomach what chance does anyone stand when you have the likes of ITV stating that a "muslim looking" couple of people were responsible for the murder of a soldier.
WTF does a muslim look like? They are trying to poison your mind to think that a "muslim looking" person is a bad person.

Who would choose to base an opinion on mainstream media? They are politically driven there is nothing impartial about them they have an agenda and they stick to it.
The truth doesnt even figure in what they choose to report.

No actually the vast majority of terrorist attacks are by muslims against other muslims. You can't blame America or the UK for al queda setting off road side bombs or bombs in market places in afgahnistan and iraq for the past 10 years.

Muslim terrorists have killed far more muslim civilians than America's drones.


The Muslim world has been a violent **** hole for hundreds of years, since before the United States has even existed as a country. (the rest of the world has also been a violent **** hole, America and Europe included)

Do you have a source with figures that includes the terror campaigns waged by the UK and USA around the world?
