Most terrorism starts as a response to irreversible and often final humanitarian harm
but at least those people (usually) don't lie and claim to be freedom fighters or some other B.S.

The only way, short of genocide, to end any genuine terrorist conflict is for both sides to stop thinking in terms of "terrorists winning" or "terrorists losing.

If you're right, that's ok, because I'm under no delusion that I can do anything anyhow.

Healing can come. But it takes the removal of oppression, it takes gifted peacemakers, and, most importantly, it takes generations.

And I'm way too cynical to believe that just because it can, it will. Hence my seething resentment of everyone involved.
