Of course! Its the Jews fault! I mean, when India (which was mostly Hindu) was being oppressed by England, what did they do? Yea, I know! They sent suicide bombers into English areas and targetted innocent civilians, especially women and children. And then they built tunnels to run weapons and murderers into the innocent English areas more easily. They indoctrinated their children with hate and taught them that a life worth living was to blow yourself up for the Indian cause. And then they had a corrupt, self-serving leader who used the misery of his own (Indian) people to bolster his personal fortune.

Yes, of course. Beautiful.

Beautiful. Diff pretty much summed up why Muslim Seperatists suck.

If they just took a couple for the team without any retaliation, Israel/Russia would be seen as the aggressors (which they are) and they would get wide international support. But... instead they blow themselves up like morons, take children hostage, cause massacres, and demolish skyscrappers.

If Gandhi had an AK47 and popped caps in the limeys, India woudn't be the wonderful nation of outsourced call centres it is today. It would still be "that country with the river filled with shit where they ride on elephants".

However, Chechnya and Ingushetia are fucked what ever they do. The United Nations aren't going to stand up to Russia, even if they aren't the superpower they once were. So passive-aggression is not going to work... especially after this seige... I think they are officially now sympathy proof.

It sucks to be south-west Russian.

Different times, people dont even know whats going on in those places.

Example, I was blasted on this board when I posted the official Israeli government death counts between Palestines and Israeli´s since the second intifada.

I was called an antisemite and the numbers were trashed becouse they showed three times as manny Palestine victims then Israeli victims so I was acused of using fake figures.

Honestly how many people here are even aware of what exactly has been goin on in Chechnya for the last 100 years?
Yet everyone is acting like a specialist who knows the answers to that particular problem.

Using that logic, we should forgive those who took down the WTC. I mean, that was almost 3 years ago. It's about time to let go of the past.

Exactly.

I'm going to make a general comment on this terrible tragedy and the issues it has raised... I've read through most of the posts and you can see why the world is so divided and tearing at the seems, humans as a species naturally will seek power, at the cost of those who, they feel are weaker then themselves... The attack in Russia was a prime example of the "strong" using the week, to gain some advantage in their struggle for power.

Its not only the terrorists who are to blame, the developed nations, turning a blind eye and creating their new world orders have generated these situations, within their own borders, by ignoring or walking over their own people.. to gain their place at the top of the tree.

To stop terror in all its form's people have got to stop trying to dominate one another, but that i guess will be something that will never happen, its in ALL of our genes...
I feel, that as the individuals of this forum, we have shown here that we at least have the human decency to care, something where also born with, the polar opposite "compassion". Compassion for each other and forgiveness is the perfect way of fighting the 'men of power'. because in the end without our fear and hatred their powerless.

The most perfect example that spring to mind is WW2. A government who were bitter about their failing economy and social conditions, picked the weakest group it could find, and destroyed them, to give them the sense of achievement, of power. And yes before that actually happened, hate and jealousy was growing worldwide, but hey I'm sure theres no need for the history lesson, just making a point.

To sum up, in my opinion bias, power and hatred, just breed bias power and hatred.. Do ourselves a favour, keep cool, and make our own opinions on topics with the least degree of bias we can muster....

P.S. By the way I'm not having a go at you guys, just generally speaking
P.S. We get fox news on cable, and there a bunch of tards.... :P long live BBC
