This, and your other arguments about how the US is driving them to it, is
purest, unadulterated, week-old, smelly horseshit.
"Mommy, he made me do it!" is no more valid when nation-states say it than
it is when a 5-year-old says it.

I don't believe that Muslims think this is the right way to address their
grievances as a matter of religion...but what am I to think about the
Palestinians when they're CELEBRATING IN THE STREETS??! I refuse to accept
that ANYTHING the US may have done rates this attack on innocent civilians,
and arguing that we should "understand" why we have "provoked" them into
doing this merely rewards the violence. The only thing I want to understand
is the chain reaction that will happen when we find the m*****f*****s and
nuke them into the Stone Age.
The NY Post has an ediorial that says it well at

Enough of this. I'm going to walk around Central Park with my shiny new
E-10. There are damned few people out there...NYC is *quiet*. You can hold
a normal conversation without raising your voice on 34th Street. That's just
plain eerie.
