Woolwich London terror attack?

[Magda Hassan]

It was a brutal murder - bestial - even if the target was a soldier. But haven't you heard, Magda, there is no more 'ordinary crime' only terrorism and crimes against the state. I sense these two men were not set up for this....this is truly 'blowback' in its most bestial and horrid form.

I agree. It looks like the real deal. And particularly brutal. But then the same thing happens to victims of domestic violence far too often as well. Cars used as weapons and handy kitchen implements not used for cooking purposes.

Nothing learned and the World not a safer nor better place. The same does happen in far off places unseen and at the sharp end of a drone missile or bomb, etc. Hacking a person to death with a butchers cleaver is especially brutal - the end result is the same. No one in power in the 'West' is even thinking - let alone acting - toward or for Peace; instead it is all about endless war with an unseen enemy that is everywhere.

Hacking a person to death is just a bit more in your face and sort of honest in a very warped sort of way. Most people don't have the stomach for that. Pushing buttons from a remore location targeting remote targets on a compter screen only to clock off after the shift and go and have a few drinks with the mates then go home and play computer games is to be detached from reality of one's actions. People don't even see their meat killed these days. It is all presented in neat plastic trays detached from the process of killing the animal it once was. So, it is a tough ask to get soldiers to do the hand to hand killing these days but the profits remain high in the game of drones.

How come no one is attacking Costa Rica and doing 'terrorist' actions there? Simple, they harm no one - they don't even have a military.

One day borders wont matter. And there will just be people. Fellow human beings.
