To get rid of vermin sometimes you have to think, and even act like them. That's a moral decision that every person has to make for themselves. Imposing your morality on them is exactly what Bin Laden and Al Queda have done to the world. It is sick and wrong.
(And please, please note that I'm not calling you a terrorist Fljotsdale. I have infinitely more respect for you than that. I just disagree with your view and I get just as up in arms when people start throwing around statements like "Can you imagine Jesus doing that?" as you do about jingoism.)

Point taken, Nachtrafe.
However, if we stick with animals for a moment - no rat would act like Larry did, lol! They are just predators/scavengers doing what predators/scavengers do. They carry disease - thus becoming 'pests' - from the filth WE leave around for them. No blame to them. They actually help clear up our food refuse, if you think about it.
Going back to bin Laden and his cronies - I have no problem with killing them if it is proved they are guilty, as we have been told they are. What I take issue with is the WAY it is being done. Ok, it may have EVENTUALLY come to this - but it may not, too. The Taliban may have given them up to justice. WE did not give them the evidence they asked for - then WE go in and bomb them. We have probably killed innocents in the process. We probably would even if the action had to be taken later... but we went in too fast and without due process of law. The terrorists that were behind the hijacking is Scotland some years ago were brought to JUSTICE - we didn't go in and bomb their country of origin.
