Reader comment on item: Palestinians Taste a Dose of Their Own Medicine

Submitted by David W. Lincoln (Canada), Nov 17, 2005 at 11:47

As long as Muslims get indignant only when Muslims are killed by other Muslims, the paradigm has to be broken so that we arrive at the situation where Muslims are indignant when those who are not Muslim end up dead because of the machinations of Muslims.

Until that time arrives, frankly it would make more sense to follow the path that FDR wanted Vietnam to take: namely that until they are ready to handle the reigns of government, they have to be shown how its done. Furthermore the tell-tale sign various groups are ready to handle the reigns of power is indignation when those of other faith traditions end up dead because of the actions of any faith tradition.
