They're not goin to think whether these ppl are civilians or not are they? Duhhh!!... They came with the intention to seek revenge and punish. Also they came to die. You cant deal with someone who is already dead.

So to expect them not to target Americans is abit naive dont you think? You have to think like they are thinking.

America never shouts "terrorism" when the people dying are Muslims... kashmir, chechnia, palestine, etc... it never moves to try to stop massacres against Muslims. So expect extremism to rise in such areas when ppl feel forgotten, where ppl feel desperate and hopeless.

Deal with the injustice first, then you will see a drop in extremism.

You gota move from this narrow mindedness of "kill them all, bomb them wherever you find them". The solution is as I said elsewhere.

Yet, you still don't address your own contradiction. Let's remind others of your initial contribution to this thread where you excuse these perpetrators' actions because of the situation in Kashmir. When asked why then they targeted Americans and Brits, you excuse their actions by saying the reason they did this is because of what Americans have done in Muslim countries. One must ask themselves at this point if you even know what you are talking about. It is easy to conclude that you don't because of your inconsistencies and because your have no facts to post.

Luckily for the rest of us, animeshpandeya has offered a rational, cogent, and supported analysis of the situation along with other posters.
