Chew on the words "terrorism" and "freedom" all you want
Reader comment on article: Israel's Unnecessary War
in response to reader comment: Its an oppurtunity to Wipe out Hizbullah & Hamas

Submitted by Sammy Jader (Jordan), Jul 20, 2006 at 06:03

... A gun with "Peace and Freedom" written on it does not fire candy, and a gun that fires in retaliation, and in restoration of honor and free life, does not make it terrorism. You can debate on suicide bombings as being terrorism, and I do agree 100% the 9/11 bombings and other ones were major acts of terrorism, but for the love of God (who is the same God in Islam), do not insult the intelligence of the whole world. Just because in the diplomatic corridors the US can get endorsement by country leaders for labeling all forms of Muslim fighting - which varies drastically between sects and idealogies - as terror and bundling any fight by Muslims as terror, the majority of people in this World are not that stupid. And I tell you, if spreading freedom means mass murder, I'd rather be unfree.

Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said, "Somebody who is fighting against Israeli soldiers is an enemy and we will fight back, but I believe that this is not under the definition of terrorism, if the target is a soldier."
