Terrorists blow themselves up at Mecca

I wonder if there will be cheering in the streets of Riyadh and Gaza.

You sound almost gleeful about this tragedy.

If I could get a flight out there, then yes, there would be cheering in the streets.

...no "almost" about it.

The fact that you would call this a tragedy (noone else but the scumbags were hurt) tells me all I need to know about you. You really are lost in a moral equivalent sewer. I actually feel sorry for you.

Aww, thanks radical redneck. you're sweet.

I am Gleeful about two more terrorist dead. I hope the Saudi's keep the presssure on, They're saving our men the trouble. I fail to see the tragedy in this situation; maybe one dosen't exist.

This is the most significant statement in the story:

“About 600 suspects believed linked to al-Qaida have been arrested since the May attacks, which killed 35 people, including the nine attackers.”

The Saudis never went after the Al-Qaida until there were American soldiers on their borders in Iraq. Now they are going after the terrorists with a vengeance. For these terrorists to try to set off a bomb in Mecca, the holiest of holy cities, is an act of pure desperation. This will win the Al-Qaida, the intense hatred of the Moslem world.

Algeria is another country scared to death by our liberation of Iraq. Now, they also are rounding up the Al-Qaida in their country whereas they ignored them before.

The liberation of Iraq was a key ingredient in making the Arab countries eliminate Al-Qaida from their borders. For this we have to be grateful for the courage of George Bush.

I just too little too late in my opinion. the saudis are scoundrels at best.

Jake,

I don't disagree with you, but I think the thing that got the Saudi's going is a terrorist attack within their own borders. That really woke them up. Woke up the U.S. when it happened there.

Ari, you are mentally disturbed and every bit as vile as the terrorists that you hate. Ah, but then again, they are making your life pretty tough aren't they ? I can see from the endless self pityful bleating on your sight that life is hard in one of the worlds most affluent citys. I guess suffering in others is the only thing that can offer comfort.

Dr. Kerr...

YOU pity terrorists and mourn the loss of them and think YOU have any credence when you call ME vile???

You are not very smart, are you?

Posted by: Ari at November 7, 2003 09:38 AM

Ari,
I do not mourn the loss of terrorists, and yes, it is better that they blew themselves up without harming others. I just don't see anything to be particularly happy about that's all.

Dr Kerr, You're just not looking hard enough. There are two less terrorists willing to blow up you and me. I'm glad they are dead, gleeful even. I would start a Guy Fawkes Day (like you guys have to commemorate the original terrorist plot foiled) to celebrate their deaths. Who is in? We can build bonfires and burn their likenesses on a stake, like the Brits do, right Dr Kerr?

Kashei,
the effigy burnt on Nov 5th here originally represented the Pope (Guy Fawkes was part of a papist conspiracy). The capture of Guy Fawkes repesented something of a conclusion. Unfortunately the death the two terrorists amounts to just a small dent in the war against them. I don't think the killing will stop because of it.

Posted by: Dr Kerr at November 10, 2003 08:22 AM

So, in your expert opinion, what will stop the killing?
