imagine what it's like to have seen it, and be able to visualize it from that. there is no question it is not pleasant. but that's rather the point. what is being done in the name of God/Allah is an abomination of humanity.

I don't judge the billion Muslims in the world by the actions of a few

nor do i, it should go without saying. i believe the 999,990,000 non-violent, non-insane, non-fundamentalist extremist muslims need to take the bull by the horns and string the madmen up - because their inaction is turning this into a war against islam, however wrong that may be.

and I'm glad that some prominent Muslim clerics are now condemning the perpetrators of these gruesome atrocities.

while other madmen in religious costume are saying the school bombing in chechnya was a justifiable act. QED.

The one thing I don't want to see happen is to turn the war against terrorism into a war agains Islam. But I think it's sort of trending that way.

it isn't a war against islam per se. but it is a war on radical, extreme islamic fundamentalists, who are precisely to blame for where we are now. these lunatics believe in death to all infidels. *they* started this war, make no mistake. not us.
this goes back to the 11th century of course. it'll never be resolved.
