It's just like how everybody says suicide bombers are cowards. Hate to say it, but--they're not. They died for their cause.
This is a new definition of bravery to me. Blowing up oneself in order to achieve glorious martyrdom in heaven, and in the process blowing up innocent men, women and children.
Yes, that is certainly my idea of cowardice. In fact, I can't think of anything more craven.
Someone who dies for their beliefs is certainly a martyr. But someone who kills is a murderous bastard, nothing more.
Whose law? Britain has commissioned pirates, aided the French Resistance, harbored Free French and Free Polish terrorists, and beheaded and burned religious leaders at the stake because they refused to sign Henry VIII's decree sanctioning his adulterous affairs as legitimate. Sorry, but kings do NOT have a divine right.
Indeed so. Kings in the UK do not have a divine right, because the principle was established in Parliament that nobody is above the law. That is why we cut Charles the First's head off; he thought he could do no wrong, and Parliament disagreed.
In a modern democracy, one of the fundamental principles is that the law applies to everyone, and nobody is above it. It is this fundamental principle that has been attacked in this terrible, terrible crime.
If you or anyone else can't see that, then I can only say you do not understand how fortunate you are to live in a democratic country, when you don't even know what democracy is, or what it is founded upon.
