HOW considerate!!

I shall not pretend to know much about the Pakistani political situation. Neither will I pretend to be Late( I still cannot believe this) Mrs Benazir Bhutto's close aquaintance.
I will however be honest, and if that hurts you, I apologise profusely for hurting you.
Terrorism.
Somehow that word does not arouse any terror in me.
Only deep seated hatred for the act.........Hatred beyond words for the heinous act of cowardice.
Disgust for those who believe in it.
And shame, for only humans indulge in it.
I believe that terrorists are the greatest cowards ever born. They are confused, blundering no-gooders who have absolutely no idea as to what they could do to help the world( and the world needs all the help it can get) so they kill. They are SO rigid with their thoughts that they cannot see ANYTHING else.
Atleast in an age gone by, people used to own up to their acts. We know who killed Julius Caesar, Mahatma Gandhi. Now it's worse..............not only does the terrorist kill the target person, but 25 others for the heck of it and himself. No blame games required.
I find this absolutely, ironically clever. It's a wonder that people with such remarkable brains don't get themselves some respectable jobs as sweepers or something and settle down in life.
A suicide bomber is desperate. To kill himself????
Oh puh-lease!!
He is (lets assume) working for someone.
If that someone is SO sure about his act, and knows it is the right thing to do, then WHY doesn't he do it himself? If it is the call of the hour then WHY not tell the world?? I mean, when people think they are doing the right things, they usually are proud of it, aren't they??
We do not even have the right to take our OWN life......WHO gave them the right to take others' lives??
DAMNATIONS to those freaks who wanted to kill Bhutto.....and succeeded. DAMN those who killed 25 others in the meantime...............WHO the hell cares if they too were someone's children, husbands, wives............. WHO cares if thier death shattered an entire family, an entire nation.
NOBODY does!
And to add to the irony of it all..........she died where her father had been unjustly hung by the militants.......................she died just before she was due to win the damn elections by an overwhelming majority........AND that darned TYRANT who was seeking after her blood all these years(yes im talkin bout Musharraf.........c'mon militants............find me.........just one more person dead!.....................) is appealing for PEACE..........all the while sitting in an air conditioned room while Nawab Sharif and the like are on the streets crying and sympathizing with the common man.
Such a LOVELY situation. It makes me weep! :(
To HELL with terrorists! Or if possible someplace worse.
