24. Although I did not use that word
nor would I necessarily...

I would submit to you that those of us who have been the targets of terrorism, named as such, perceive these people who give aid and comfort as less than OK. How's that for moderation?

Now, if someone who lived next door to you was physically threatening to you, and I came to visit and you told me of your plight, what would you say if I replied,"Well, you probably did something to deserve this, I mean, did your dog poop on his lawn? And anyway, he has the same rights as you do and although he's threatened to kill your children and your dog, you really should temper your response, and not get too excited. in fact, we'll convene some people from the rest of the neighborhood to decide just how mad you should get at any given time. But we're watching you so you better behave."
