We will stay nonviolent till we get our chance, then we destroy them and find them in every hole. Those who were involved in killings will be slaughtered by the consequence of their own actions.

Honestly in your shoes I would be pissed as well - if indeed your family and friends have been affected and this isn't about some nonsensical religion.
But I most certainly would not perpetuate the injustice by harming innocents.edit on 21-3-2012 by lives because: (no reason given)edit on 21-3-2012 by lives because: (no reason given)

Gaza Activist Stabbed After Exposing Hamas Use of Human Shields - U.N. Must Condemn Latest Hamas Brutality GENEVA, Jan. 17 - The stabbing in Gaza of a Palestinian rights activist after he exposed Hamas' contempt for its own people by using them as human shields, and after he criticized the radical Islamic group for torture, abuse and trampling free speech, should be strongly condemned by the United Nations—both as an attack on the victim’s human rights, and on the idea of freedom of expression.
What is remarkable is that with all of the massive UN resources ostensibly dedicated to protecting Palestinians—the 16-member Division for Palestinian Rights, the 20-odd resolutions on Palestinians last year by the General Assembly, the Human Rights Council's special agenda item on Palestinians at every session, resolutions on Palestinians by UNESCO, the WHO and numerous other agencies, the full-time post of "Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Palestine" held by Richard Falk—still, with all that and more, the world body somehow managed to turn a blind eye to the massive violations of Palestinian rights described by Abu Rahma (click here for source):
• Although Abu Rahma considers Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other terrorist organizations to be “resistance groups,” he said they "show little or no care for people's life and well being.”
• “Military training sites function and are located in places very close to neighborhoods and/or schools, from where acts of resistance, including firing rockets, also occur.” As a result, “The population of these locations are inevitably vulnerable to Israeli attacks.”
• “Numerous people were injured from live fire coming from resistance groups training sites; including children and at least one man who lost his eye.”
• “There is a training site in the town of Beit Lahiya that threatens people every day, including a girl who was injured inside her school when an explosion occurred in this site on Sep. 20 2011.”
• “Explosions also occur frequently in densely-populated areas around Gaza, and have their victims, many of whom are children.”
• A man in the al-Nasser neighborhood in Gaza city, whose house is near a military training site, “complained to the resistance members many times. He explained the family’s fear for their life and house. But he was told the family could move out of the area, even if they had no resources to move. He died the way he feared most: tragically.”
• “The state of carelessness from the part of resistance is also causing continued victims of the misfiring of home-made rockets that fall on houses inside Gaza. Many of the victims are children and all of them are civilians who happen to be in their homes.”
• “There are more victims of shootings from, or explosions in, training sites. Many children are killed or maimed when explosive devices left in the streets or farms explode in their hands. And there is the young man who was shot in the legs for daring to publicly criticize a local resistance leader.”
Israel and America (one and the same) trained and funded the taliban in Afghanistan to topple the Afghani government, after that to stop the Afghan people from seeking help against them from the Soviet Union.
Fundamentalist groups are armed, funded and trained throughout the middle east by the west to take down governments and replace them with ones America enjoys.
The people want us dead, they want the benefit of our resources and land and do not care what took place to get it, so long as they enjoy its prosperity and comfort.
Israeli kill and oppress Palestinian daily

Its a loop that can not mean everyone rolls over and dies for your benefit!
Suicide bombing is wrong, but what causes it? What is the situation that created the suicide bomber?
You cannot say it will only end if everyone in the world bows to your will, you have to be willing to let others live in their own freedom in their own land before this will ever stop!
Afghani government was toppled by Russians who killed Amin. The one that requested Russian ground invasion - not the Afghani people. And Taliban enjoyed a substantial support from Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Much much much more substantial support then from Israel.
And yet those fundamentalist groups are the ones who use suicide bombers Doctrine that you just promoted in the OP. Hamas that send the most suicide bombers (funny thing - not a single relative of Hamas officials among them) into Israel is against Assad, supported what happened in Egypt and Lybia and ctr.
Really? Are you sure that it is not your side who wants the people dead? The guy who calls himself Imam and agreed to your post is waiting for his chance to slaughter, yet even Israeli racists and bigots "only" want to move all Arabs somewhere else. And those are the tiny minority.. Majority of Israelis supported p
Robert Pape, the author of "Dying to Win: The Strategic Logic of Suicide Terrorism." has said the very first suicide attacks are the Jewish zealots in Zakari(ph) in the first century AD. The Jewish zealots sought to foment a rebellion against Roman occupation by often walking up to a Roman soldier in a square and pulling out a knife and killing the soldier, often cutting his throat, knowing that there were other Roman soldiers standing right by that would immediately execute or kill the zealot.
The next most famous group in history to use suicide attacks were the Ismaili assassins in the 11th and 12th century. They would attack a sultan and leave a message, which would say, `There will be further attacks unless you leave our community alone.' This was where we get the word `assassin' from because of their propensity to assassinate enemy leaders with a suicide attack.
