This was said by P. Ustinov.
Read it. REALLY read it and tell me what you think about this statement.
If poor people had tons of money, spiffy uniforms and state of the art equipment, wouldn't their planned actions look a heck of a lot more like our "military operations?"
Are home made bombs less "moral" than really cool ones created by billion dollar war corporations whose boards of directors include many people who hold high office in our country?
Do we just have cooler toys and that makes us feel morally superior when we blow up people thousands of miles from our own country?

that is exactly right, though it requires a broader definition of "poor" than what we probably think of.

CHHIne response is typical of those who resist thinnking and just want to lable something. I agree with the statement. It doesn't mean I agree with the terrorists.

That sounds frighteningly like Lenin! Was P. Ustinov a commie?

Interesting...
I always thought of it that way, but couldn't express it as simply as Ustinov.
