<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm glad we have managed to find common ground.
It is silly to be concerned about creating martyrs as muslim
extremists need no provocation or justification for their bloody
sensless acts and while killing them doesn't do as much to reduce their
ranks as quickly as I would prefer, it does put an end to the individual
bad attitude and is far preferable to leaving them loose to kill
again.</FONT></DIV>

killing cockroaches hasn't put an end to that problem either but no one is

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Instead of taking exception to my solution to the
problem and insisting that I "think of something better," why don't you

<DIV>Sorry, Gary, creating martyrs doesn't work. Many years ago the
Christian church declared, "The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the
Church." </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Some years later, in 680 C.E., Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of
the Prophet, and a small group of family members and followers were defeated
and beheaded by a much larger army. Ever since then their martyrdom has been
commemorated by millions of Muslims. Before he was slain, the martyr Husayn
declared, "<SPAN class=Apple-style-span style="FONT-SIZE: 12px">The believer
should desire to meet his Lord while he is right. Thus I do not see death
but as happiness, and living with tyrants but as sorrow."<SPAN
class=Apple-style-span style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"> </SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Gary, you've got to think of something better than just killing
people.</DIV>

<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">I don't know about Roger but I'm A-OK with dead
terrorists. It certainly is a deterrent for the individual terrorist in
question and as to their becoming one more martyr, who cares? It's not as
though the lack would result in any reduction in anti American/western
violence. After all, Who was Bin Laden avenging? What about Mohamed Atta,
Marwan Al-Shehhi, Fayez Ahmed, Mohald Alshehri, Hamza Alghamdi and Ahmed
Alghamdi, Waleed M Alshehri, Wail Alshehri, Abdulaziz Alomari, Satam Al
Suqami, Khalid Al-Midhar, Majed Moqed, Nawaq Alhamzi, Salem Alhamzi, Hani
Hanjour, Ahmed Alhaznawi, Ahmed Alnami, Ziad Jarrahi and Saeed Alghamdi?
There is no question but what were we to cease bringing terrorists down to
room temperature the violence would still go on and on and on.</DIV>
