How to Punish Terrorists 2

[OMGitsaROSS]

Exactly, so whats the differnce, unless there minds are brainwashed or have had there mindswarped to some exstent, they wont do it.
That means if they do, do it, one of the above is true. So how can you punish any of the at all for a misguided action.
It should be treated in the same way as miltary problems aka the chain of command is responcible, a soludre isnt responcibe for shooting an inncent cervilian if he was orderd to do so by a superior, its the superors fault and the superor responciblty. Soldures are trained to do what there told.
The same is true here, these people are equaly trained to do what there told, if a terrosit leader (whom also has some warped view of the world) orders someone to do somthing, why are they suddenly responcible for it, where as one of our soldures would not?

Secondly many suide bombers dont even have the choice, the terroist gangs will hold there familys children etc hostage, and kill them if they do not. Hence why they unwilling to carry out those attacks. How can you justife punishing someone for trying to protect there family and childrens lifes...

Or they are simply just ****** up freaks?

I dont believe in execution, too many people have been executed who have been guilty. Same thing would happen with terrorists.

Have you seen the Nick Berg execution video? You will curse terrorists for ever, it's that cruel & disturbing.

They wouldn't be terrorists if they were, terrorism denotes a specific terror mongering aim.
Secondly, what difference does that make, if there ****** up, aka mentally ill, its society's job to give them the help they need to recover from it.

In a war, it's a matter of kill or be killed. The same principle applies with the War on Terrorism in my opinion.

If you apply the principles of war to terrorists killing them is still wrong? they should then be treated the same as captured soldier's are, governed by the genva convention etc o.0

If it were the other way around, would the terrorist's give a damn about the Geneva Convention? Bit of a retorical question really, they've beheaded enough people, videoed it, and put it on TV :rolleyes:

So you think because they do it we should sink to there level, there are murders and rapists out there, should we all go and murder and rape people to becuse they do?
You kinda loose the right to say its wrong when you do it to.

also, yea, we never do that, i mean like showing dead insergets, or sadams children even... or even the video of sadam himself, the hanging may as well have just been a beheading o.0
