An Unquenched Light Deserving No More Darkness

They must be unconditionally eradicated wherever they rear their ugliness, by any means necessary. Compassion and understanding require it, justice and punishment demand it

Terrorists, by their very namesake, want to invoke terror. Whether their acts are by individuals bent on inflicting harm for whatever reason or connected to, or at least inspired by, a particular ideology, it matters very little at this point. Either way, they wish to disrupt normalcy, creating chaos from order. Once again, the world has witnessed a terrorist attack that has done that exact thing. Once again, hollow rhetoric will echo forth calling for compassion and understanding. Yes, there should be compassion - for the victims and their families. Yes, there should be understanding - for how and why such a senseless act was perpetrated in the first place. There must be both of these things in order to properly act. In order to properly act, though, both must be suppressed in order to dole out justice and punishment - justice for the victims and their families, punishment for the perpetrators. Neither can ever be forthcoming clouded by compassion or understanding.

It's a no-brainer.

Focus on protection hundreds of millions of legal residents of your country, or...

Avoid hurting the real or faux feelings of a few thousand enemy illegal foreign agent terrorists, And spending TRILLIONS$ IN THE PROCESS??

In my universe, a virtually costless no-brainer, as I said.

In addition to the placing of flowers, Teddy bears, and candles at the site, the changing of Facebook and Twitter avatars, and multi-culti candlelight marches, the Post-Islamic-Bombing Ritual should include the hanging of the head of state of the country where the Islamic bombing takes place. I’d like to see the next Pope endorse this ritual change.
