To call them cowards is a little miss guided. I am no suicide bomber, but I reckon it would take a lot of courage.
A cowardly act would be more apt maybe. In the Army i wrote a paper on the islamic terrorist movement.
They firmly believe in what they are doing is right. They cannot be defeated as it is a badge of honour to do what they are doing.
My question is this, is it more a cowardly act for a terrorist to strap bombs to himself and blow up innocents in a marketplace, or giving the OK for bombs to dropped on a strategic target and killing innocent people along with it?

OK, so what would YOU call this?
Al Qaeda use two Down's syndrome women to blow up 99 people in Baghdad markets
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=511678&in_page_id=1811&ct=5
Quote: | Al Qaeda fanatics plumbed to sickening new depths yesterday when they turned two women with Down's syndrome into human bombs to kill 99 people in Baghdad.
The unwitting pawns were apparently fooled into wearing explosive vests which were then detonated remotely by mobile phones as the women mingled with crowds. |

Yes Dale i remember this act. And at the time I thought 'how sick is it to use mentally challenged people to achieve their objective'.
My point is all of it is wrong. And I will agree with you that to use people against their wills is a cowardly act.
But in war atrocities committed from either side are bad. What about the things that happen that are not reported? _________________ All this may be summed up in one word - CHARACTER - and if that is not worth developing, nothing is.

It doesn't take any courage if you firmly believe that by doing it you'll enter "paradise" straight away.
The cowards are the ones who convince these poor sods to do it and strap explosives onto intellectually disabled people. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |
