Im talking about discussion disctinctions not target of oportunity distinctions)

Actually, this is a pretty narrowminded viewpoint, Majik. I'm pretty sure that condemnation came from all parts of the world, not just western countries, during the Sept 11 attacks. The use of terror as a political tool is not restricted to Muslims - just ask the British who suffered through decades of IRA attacks. Or the Philippines, who still suffer from attacks from the New People's Army communists. Or the Sri Lankans, whose country is plagued by attacks from the Tamil Tiger separatists. Or the Spanish who have to worry about ETA Basque separatist terror attacks. Or Peru and Sendero Luminoso. I could go on, but I won't.
Anyway, as Wellard kindly reminded me, we imposed a religious moratorium on this forum for an indefinite period, so I'll have to lock this thread. If it's any consolation Morguerat, I had to lock the one I just started myself.
