[B][color=blue][size=1]A lot of people are going to blame this on Bush's decision about Iraq the War on Terrorism and Howard's decision to follow him, but you can't really blame them. These terrorists hate us, they hate western nations, they hate civilised countries. And they would have attacked us or someone else sometime whether we fought against terrorism or not.[/size][/color] [/B][/QUOTE]

[color=red] Exactly my point. If terroism isn't ever going to just give in and stop forever, then why fight it? Sure I can see trying to stop it as much as you can, but going to war is just crossing the line. I really think this whole thing with Iraq is over oil. Stupid money grubbing politicians :cussing:[/color]

[color=royalblue]I won't even enter the whole oil question (because frankly, it's stupid and a waste of my time).

But as far as terrorism goes...we should of course do all we can to stop it. Or at least minimize the effects it has on our everyday lives.

The best way to do that is to arrest those responsible, gain better intelligence and deal with the sources of terrorism (poor education, poverty, dictatorship Governments etc...)[/color]

[B]That's an awful lot of people for a car bomb. It's still strange reading stories like these... Although I don't want to ever get used to them. [/B][/QUOTE]

[size=1][color=green]Not a car bomb, but a whole load of C4 plastic explosives.. sick.. I wasn't surprised that something like this is happening though, the world's on the start of a pretty big war.[/size][/color]

It's pathetic really. I mean, exactly why do people do these things? The so-called 'Holy War' or 'my religion says its okay to kill so-and-so' reasons aren't valid IMHO. I send my condolences to all of the families who lost loved ones during the bombing. Frankly, with the number of terrorist bombing growing I'm actually scared. My dad flew to Ohio this morning on a buisness trip and I'm really nervous about his flight back. Apparently, people just seem to have a lust for bloodsed and it doesn't look like it'll stop anytime soon. I'm beginning to think that eventually we're going to cause our own extinction.
