Teribus - you said The level of violence in both Iraq and Afghanistan is now so low it hardly registers, much less than Northern Ireland in the mid-1970's.

I merely pointed out that it was an odious, wrong and idiotic comparison. What you said was the "level of violence". If you now want to change that to "bomb attacks" I still see no valid comparison. But then you can see a difference between Downs syndrome suicide bombers and bombing people with napalm.

I don't.
