Thread: What can be done to prevent terrorism?

As much as I want to agree with Sgt.C. and D.D. on this point, but I have to admit that Ramil has more solid and reasonable position in this discussion. I don't like those guys who show their @sses to their god while praying too, but we must admit: the problem is radical Islam, not Islam in general.

Just to say I am so sorry that this has happened yet again.

It's hard to understand this, harder I think than the "terrorism" (some might call it freedom fighting) in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I think Russia has shown that it accepts that Caucasus being quite seriously muslim (such as in Chechnya which seems to be operating under semi-sharia judging from what I read. Women wearing islamic dress in pictures and lots of laws from straight out of the Koran being in place. (If that's what the majority there prefer, then I think they should have it.... )

I wonder what regular people in Caucasus make of this. Do they hate Russians and think that this is a great success. Or would they like these people locked up as much as anyone else?

The phrase that springs to mind is: "don't hate the player, hate the game".

Another thing I have to disagree with. By this logic, as long as there are more slave owners than slaves, slavery is perfectly acceptable (as the majority prefer it). Yes, laws should be made for the good of the governed, but not to the extent where the "greater good" steamrollers over the rights of a minority.
