Terrorist freed, US Navy diver still dead

The papers reported yesterday that the killer of a US Navy diver who just happened to be on a commercial airliner almost two decades ago when it was hijacked had been freed from a German prison.
How sad.
The killer supposedly flew to Lebanon where, he no doubt, was welcomed by the many people there who promote and participate in terrorism of the worst kind. The killer was one of several terrorists who took over the plane, threatened all aboard (more than 100) and then when they found that a US Navy sailor was aboard, they beat him, killed him and threw his body out of the plane and onto the runway.
No doubt, they shouted, "God is great! God is great!" as they did all those things.
They were, no doubt, the same words shouted by the terrorists who took over a cruise ship about as many years ago--and who after killing him shoved a dentist in a wheel chair over board. The man in the wheel chair was an old man, too. Yet the terrorists are said to have laughed as they pushed him over board!
This has been a long, long war with so many innocent victims of such vicious terrorists! And, even the ones who are caught, are set free to, no doubt, continue their terrorism.
It is time the Arabs and Islamic people of the world stop all this meanness and hate. It also is time for all of them to start apologizing to the rest of the world--like the Japanese have been doing ever since World War II. And, like the Japanese, the Arabs and Islamic people will never be able to apologize enough to overcome all the hate and hurt they and their ideals have caused the world.

Yes I believe arab states should take accountability, particularly Saudi Arabia and Egypt for their breading of terrorists.

But when laying out that kind of argument you should be more careful of your choice of words. A person with not 100% english, who was say an Iraqi muslim- may take that the wrong way and feel you are suggesting they are responsible for this terrorism and should apologise.

I think you will understand what I mean by that..

Anyway, the US government should apologize to the Mexican indigenous for their support of the Mexican government(s) for the past how-ever-many-years.

And should apologize for supporting coup-de-ta attempts against the overwhelmingly supported Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.

On a bigger scale, it is not individual races, nor countries or leaders responsible for all this; it is the complacency and self-importance of the average person which allows much of it to happen.

A friend of mine, a young female, very attractive and only 17 years old was in the middle of the city at night with her (now ex)boyfriend.

Her boyfriend was drunk and they had a fight, he punched her and kicked her repetitively while people just watched. Grown men around the area did not intervene. They didn't feel it was there place, you know, they didn't know this person; why should they help her?

it is these same attitudes toward the more global issues that need fixing, not a few apologies from a few insincere leaders of a few terror-supporting states...
