Shay, why do you post your text with a space between each sentence?

Seriously, if you look at this incident from another perspective, you can actually rejoice.
Now, this sounds insensitive as hell, but really, aren't you glad you're still alive today? This tragedy made me appreciate more how lucky I am to be alive and you should be thankful that you are too. Not just because the Tsunami killed tens of thousands and you're not one of them, but simply because you survived today.

In some cases there is a fine line between a terrorist and a freedom fighter.

Don't get me wrong I’m not supporting terrorism it's just that there is always two sides of the story.

So in short to just brand all terrorists inhuman without knowing all the facts is a bit rash in my opinion, but hey I guess that's just your opinion.

True
But in my opinion a freedom fighter is someone who is fighting for something they truely believe in, you can say the same about terrorists but do they go fight equally armed people in fair combat? No they use any means necessary to kill innocent people that have nothing to do with their agenda. That is what i believe the difference is

It makes my heart beat very fast!

Damn! Something just got in my eyes! if you excuse me I am going to see check whats up...

Terrorists could care less about the Tsunami...no terrorist organizations have donated any aid; furthermore, several terrorist attacks occured during and imediately after the Tsunomi...they didn't even pause for a moment of silence. Furthermore, like the cowards they are, these attacks they made during the tsunami were against unarmed civilians, mostly women and children. Please do not attempt to lump terrorists into the same species as myself. Thankyou.

The reality of this disaster has begun to sink in with me just now, one week after it happened. In the beginning as the death toll estimates rose inexorably, I watched the news with some kind of sick facination. The numbers rose so fast that it just numbed the mind. Now, I feel my throat closing up at the thought of all those who has lost their entire families and had their lifes utterly shattered.

Of course, giving money to the victims will help their immediate plight, but no amount of money can bring back the dead. This year started off quite remarkably bad. Let's all hope it gets better, and soon.

May I suggest we keep this thread on track and free of debates on the moral nature and definition of what constitutes terrorists? This subject is horrific enough without getting all upset about someone elses opinion.
