I've Been Thinking:

There are lessons to be learned from the gruesome, organized terror that shock Bombay, India and killed over 190 people.

Terrorists and supporters of terror unequivocally believe:
that the innocent people they murder are guilty simply because they exist
that the mass murder of innocents is the only weapon against a stronger and better armed enemy
that their acts are justified as self-defense because attacks are the only language the enemy understands

In truth, the terrorist mass murderers in Bombay, like the terrorist mass murderers in Israel, London, New York, Madrid and Istanbul are criminals, not freedom fighters. To think otherwise is delusional.

There are rules to fighting.
One of the most important rules is to identify the targets of attack and to try and avoid hurting innocents.
Terrorists target innocents.
Terrorists intentionally and deliberately murder innocents.
