Well, here we go again:  another writer excusing indiscriminate
killing with that "but they aren't human" crap.  Boy, it really
seems that you who say this can't understand that *everybody* is
human, and that *nobody* deserves this kind of treatment.  Please
explain how this vengeful killing of innocent people is better than
holding airline passengers hostage.
