Uh-huh. Well, here's a plea to all people and their governments:

We must renounce the use of terror, whether it is carried out by hidden cells (such as Al Queda) or by national armies (any of them) or by covert agencies (such as the CIA) on behalf of national governments. All actions of organized and premeditated violence are the use of terror...since they are clearly intended to terrorize someone else into surrender...or to simply kill someone else who is regarded as "undesirible" from the point of view of he who orders to the terror attacks to be carried out.

We must renounce the use of aggression. (based on the notion that one has the right to attack others first, as Hitler did to Poland, as Japan did to Pearl Harbor (etc), and as the USA and Britain did more recently to Iraq and Afghanistan.)

We must renounce the use of torture.

We must renounce the abrogation of our own people's civil rights in the name of "security".

We must renounce the further building of weapons of mass destruction.

We must renounce the unwillingness to honestly confront evil when it is we, our own governments, agencies, and armed forces who are doing it.

There's a reasonable start. Apply it not only to the Muslims worldwide, but also to all other people on this planet, and tell me when you think you can achieve it.

Remember what it says in the Bible, Dickey? (I know you respect the Bible.) It says not to go on and on about the speck in the other fellow's eye, while ignoring the beam that is stuck in your own eye. What do you think all these governments are doing when they pretend that evil can be seen only on the face of their chosen enemy?

They're lying. And they are committing evil acts themselves in the process.

Of course, this sort of thing has been going on for centuries, so why should anyone be surprised...?
