re: #990 reine.de.tout


But their decisions were not based on a desire to blow up the rig and kill people. The effect is just as awful; but the motive was completely different from Violent Religious Events that happen to be perpetrated by those of the Islamic faith who subscribe to radical interpretations that they think directs them to Kill Us.

Who cares what their desires were? They took decisions knowing that they were increasing the risk of disaster. When you consider that they have however many drilling operations, this means that they effectively knew that the number of such disasters would increase.

I personally do not care whether the man who comes to kill me does so for money or religion.
