Re: Stupid News Reporters.
 

I don't think there is an ideal solution.
These thugs are using the smokescreen of religion. What they are doing has no basis in religion...any religion.
How can you massacre a tribe of Yazidis because they refuse to convert to Islam?
Surely faith has to be by choice not by force. These thugs who have been brought up here, were able to practise their chosen faith without let or hindrance.
They have had education, they have had the opportunity to speak freely of what they believe...they have lived in a tolerant society......but they have no tolerance of others who were doing no harm...just living in the land they have lived in for centuries.

Less, I abhor violence. the reported execution of James Foley made my blood run cold. To think that males raised here were capable of such an act appalled me.
Violence only breeds violence.......and it isn't for religion, but so that those who see themselves as strong can exert their will over those they see as weak.......they do not understand justice, compassion or any humanitarian values.....they debase the human race.
I thank you for you answer to my question......it is valued.
