I'm not sure removing yourself from the horror is the answer.

It's not pretty, it's not entertaining, It's part of our history and we need to absorb and learn.

I have no idea of the programme's angle, but if you're going to absorb and learn anything it would be from the terrorist side of things to prevent something similar happening again.

Bosh and there they go. That dust and debris was moving at some speed, smashing and engulfing everything.

I respect your point of view Leefer but death is part of life.  Not everybody on this forum is going to make it into their seventies.  Very few  will die asleep in their beds.

Hopefully none of us will die from a terrorist attack but i think we owe it to society's to come to understand what religious terrorists are capable of.

It's like a rabbit in a cars headlights.

It was an awful awful act.  i can remember getting home from work and watching it on TV.  It's lost none of its horror.

You can learn all that, or you could learn vigilance.

You could learn who your enemy is and what they're capable of

If you're going to learn all that, maybe you should take some time to learn what made them your enemy in the first place? Maybe then we could try and stop making enemies? Or is that too simplistic?

Well yeah, that's the point I was making.

A good yet harrowing account of terror from the 'terrorists' side is the film Waltz With Bashir. I expect soldiers have seen and done many things we could only imagine, for someone they've never even met.

You really do like to beat (not masturbate)yourself with a stick.

Yes there was great injustices but I'm not really worried to much about wars in the middle ages, not worried to much about lands being lost and won. Westerns civilisation can capitulate or protect itself.  For tomorrow we face starvation, water shortage/flood and a fuel crisis.  We can face it with a straight bat, or fight fire with fire.

Are you suggesting high jacking a plane and flying innocent women and children into a building is the action of a freedom fighter?
