I see this thread, which was intended to provide news on our brothers and sisters in London, has degenrated into finger pointing and name calling. The trolls and flamers have unleashed their weapons and are using them to try to get a rise out of the rest of us. And, by and large, they are successful.

When we feel the pain of all terrorist bombings, whether they are in New York, London, Bagdad, Kabul, South America, Africa, Asia, no matter where, when we feel the pain and respond with kindness and healing then we will have taken the first step to setting the terrorists back in their place.

The authorities will hunt down the particular guilty parties. It is not our place to seek vengeance. All we need is justice.

Those people who celebrate the bombings are not guilty of the bombings. They must feel they have reason to react like that. It is not our place to condemn them for dancing but to ask the hard questions. Why do they feel joy at the death and destruction in London? What is it that justifies such a reaction? Once we find that reason we can fight terrorism with the one weapon they cannot stand against, education and tolerance. This is what makes a civilization great. Wars and bloodshed have been the traditional way of handling international difficulties but this is not the same thing. these are people who feel they have been wronged. We need to go out among them and ask them why they feel anger. Then we can find the cause of terrorism and end it for good.

One other hard question is how many people were dancing? The media can make a small group look like a huge crowd. Always remember the purpose of commercial media is to sell soap, not tell the truth.
