Thread Name: Binladdin Must Die
Subject: RE: Binladdin Must Die
A number of people have suggested that the problem will not be solved until we look at the reasons these guys were willing to kill themselves as well as thousands of others. There have been people living in squalid refugee camps for over 50 years now. I hear about terrorism in Israel, followed by the Israeli army bulldozing houses and killing children caught in sprays of machine gun fire. Clearly that approach is not working, but the Palestinians are also pretty intractable. At the risk of offending my husband's Iraeli relatives, I am beginning to think maybe the UN should go in there and kick both their butts and force them to behave. The whole situation totally sucks, and it will never end until the fanatics on both sides are dealt with.
