==================
James, I read and re-read KJ's contribution -- along with others -- several times and I found zero evidence that anyone placed Islamic terrorists on par with the PLO or the Irish Nationalists.
In fact, I've only read attempts to assert a chain of causation (which really should be the debate's proper focus) -- not provide a moral cover for mass murder.
So precisely now...who's that portion of your post in response to?
