Aye. You make a good point. It is clear that they don't have any qualms with throwing their own lives away, so maybe sending them to rot on an isolated island prison would be best. Of course, don't tell a soul where they are, or you'll have enraged Americans trying to kill them and enraged terrorists trying to free them.

Thanks. I suppose none of us knows how they would react until confronted with that kind of situation. I'd rather not have to make that decision, the very thought of my family being threatened makes me sick.

Aye. There is a fine line between justice and revenge, as the title of this string would seem to suggest. By all means, punish the terrorists, the countries harbouring them and their backers, but don't make this a war against people from the Middle-East or Muslims or Islamic people.
