And to free which holy land? Tell me again .. which religion holds Kenya and Somalia to be "holy land"
Now - I do not particularly condone the actions of these terrorist groups .. but perhaps we should remember Abu Ghraib and the torture conducted there ..
Perhaps we shoud remember how many women and children have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan by American troops ??? Do the western powers really hold the moral high ground ??

We certainly haven't taken the approach that is most like to be effective; which worked rather well not that many years ago with the National Socialist Workers Party and their Thousand Year Reich.
How many terroists have been captured, killed, assassinated, how many are lock up in GitMo ??? How many died in the caves of Afghanistan ???
There should be no sanctuary and no quarter for people who murder deliberately, in cold blood, women and children,
Has there been quater gven? I see no evidence of it ... and does the asame apply to the invaders who kll women and children in these countries???
Perhaps the way Gen Havelock followed up after 200 women and children were murdered in cold blood at the siege of Cawnpore, would reduce the risk of another Nairobi, another Mumbai...
Unfortunately, and I am not trrying to justify this at all - every dead terroist is a martyr who inspires more of them .. killing them multiplies their numbers.
How about you look at the reaons why these people commit these attacks ... maybe there is another way of dealing with this ??? If you remove the reasosn for their anger and hatred then just maybe we wil be able to stop terrorist attacks ... maybe not the current crop of angry and disaffected people - but we might stop them breeding and multiplying ..
Simple justice will not work ..
