re: #280 Obdicut

Every action has an unequal and opposite reaction when humans are involved. Everything that happens in this situation helps to self-reinforce the two-way hatred. Rockets fired into Israel, Israel responds with missile strikes or military action, innocent collateral casualties happen, which reinforce the hatred, and the loop continues.

You can equally apply what you said to America’s situation: it seems like every time a terrorist is blown up by a flying death toy, there is collateral damage in the form of innocent people. That reinforces their hatred of us, at which some point will lead to an act of “terror,” which will reinforce our hatred of them, meaning more people get blown up, and the cycle repeats itself.

There will most likely never be an end to any of it. Not until somebody decides to proverbially “turn the other cheek.”
