Condemning Cowards

I would like to take this opportunity to condemn the cowardly acts of the terrorists in Pakistan that led to the assassination of Benazir Bhutto. In a sad sense it comes as no shock that she was murdered by Islamic fundamentalists. They had already tried to kill her at least twice before and failed. It is very unfortunate that these violent cowards know no way in which to face a problem and simply resort to mass injury, mass destruction, and nothing short of inciting and executing terror. You cannot fight fire with fire and this is precisely what the terrorists do not understand. I have come to think of them as modern day savages.

Bhutto was a moderate who was the hope of many in Pakistan. She was the hope who would create change for the better - economically and politically. For the world, she was a better candidate for her fight against terrorism within Pakistan. (I strongly believe that Pakistan is a key breeding ground for Islamic fundamentalism, i.e. terrorism.) Yet, the modern day savages do not see that. Instead, to them, the song of brain-washed wackos continues to ring.

Don't let the song of the brain-washed wacko savages ring in your ear.
