A terrorist is someone who does not care who gets hurt, so long as they get what they want. This qualifies an awful lot of people as terrorists.
I understand what you are saying, about both sides seeing their side as being a hero and the other side as being a terrorist. If you can truly understand this and realize that this is as true of you as it is of those who are seeing it from the opposite perspective you can at least free your self from it. If you can come to the realization that these ideas are point of view specific. You reaslize that they do not exist in reality and are totally dependent on which side you see yourself on. If you can actually understand this you quickly realize how insane it is to try to harm anyone.
There are far better ways to handle conflicts in ideology than murdering innocent people. We all need to begin to understand that people who are willing to harm innocent people to get what they want are terrorists. It does not matter if their names ar bush, Blair, rumsfeld or Bin laden.
These people pretend to be hero's, and many people are tricked into believing the lie they are telling. Don't be one of them.
Love and blessings

Depends. Where is the suicide bomber- blowing off?
Why do Muslims accept the utter hatred and murderous intent of the terrorist without standing up and saying- no this is wrong- and we do not hate?
Why don't Muslims all over the world stand up and say enough- and why aren't women in Islamic countries treated with dignity and respect and allowed to live in society along with the men of those countries.
Why do Islamic women go along with the - for lack of a better word- slavery of themselves?
Why are Islamic terrorist so cowardly?

I tell you what, I am in the US military and damn proud of it. We have spent billions of dollars to help people of the "east" by building schools, keeping the streets safe, reestablishing power, providing drinkable water and what thanks do we get, ignorant questions like this. We drop bombs on suspected terrorists sites with information provided to us. If people do not want to be killed during these actions, then maybe they should stop assisting the terrorists and move away from known possible terrorist activities. Tell me, what purpose does it serve for a suicide bomber to set off a bomb infront of your own police departments killing people that have signed up for a job that keeps the public safe? Let's see, drop a bomb on a terrorist or a suicide bomber that sets bombs off infront of public service estabishments? Figure this one out on your own genious.

If the terrorists will wear a uniform and go to a battlefield, away from cities and civilians, the opposing armies can face each other and demonstrate their bravery.
No civilians would be killed or injured.
Are terrorists brave enough to fight like warriors? Are they "heros" when they hide behind women and children?

Why do the terrorist keep innocent people around them? American soldiers in WWII would do everything they can to get civilians out of there operations. But the terrorist at gun point keep civilians around them for protection!
It is a shame, that civilians are forced to die in war, at the hands of fools and cowards, that have no God!

Why does the Lebanese people allow their government to kidnapped, invade, and slaughter innocent civilians that are not military?
Why the 30 years of blowing up of civilian innocents on airliners?
Why the murder of Israeli Olympic athletes in Munich in 1972 simply over their Faith?
Why the kidnapping of American embassy personnel?
Why the brutality and perversion of the Islamic Faith for murder against innocent people?
Answer these questions, and I will seriously consider yours.
Gods Peace.

We are the criminals.
If not for direct participation then for supporting the actions through tax payments. Israel gets about 6 billion a year from the US and our weapons. Guess where that money comes from, Mr. John Q. Taxpayer.
The Israeli's are terrorists, as well. They invaded that land, stole it and have been keeping it by killing everyone who tries to take it back. America and the US are terrorists for our support of this regime.

I think it is all open to personal opinion. I do not think it is being heroic to kill anyone. However sometimes killing must happen. Even a rose bush must be pruned in order to grow. What is heroic is doing what is right in accordance to GOD's word not simply doing something because you were told too. I personally do not believe GOD is keeping a bodycount for scoring who is winning. I think it pains HIM to see what people do in the name of Religion. Religion without GOD is nothing more than cultism. If people the whole world were being Godly then we would not be having this conversation at all because it simply would not apply. GOD is not driven by man's desire to rule the planet....HE already does. Wars are man's invention.War is a human word...every word in the bible is GOD's word...only it has been left open to man's translation which is where the problems began. Maybe that is the reason why everyone speaks a different language. GOD brought about the Tower of Babylon to facilitate freewill. If HE had left everyone able to talk to each other then everyone would have been led astray by one person...whoever yelled the loudest I guess? But instead he gave us all to speak a different tongue so we would have to read HIS word and meditate on it to acheive our own oneness with HIM instead of each other. If you lean on someone else's cane it's liable to break. However when GOD hands you a set of Crutches then have more legs to stand on. If everyone was meditating on GOD's word all the time and walking with Christ then they would not have time for waging wars and worrying about who stepped on my Holy Shrine or Who stole my dolly? Those things would become irrelevant. I think GOD was hoping HIS children would all become masters of their own minds and therefore come to him looking for answers and talk to HIM more. The biggest part of what is wrong with the world is not religion...it's a lack of people's ability to tend their own garden. Did not Jesus say, "before you remove the splinter from your brother's eye, remove the beam from your own"? if we all were removing our own beams then we would not be continuously poking everyone else's eyes out. No problems then.

Its a well known fact that Hezbollah hides where innocent people are, so its kind of hard not kill an innocent person trying to kill a hezbollah extremist.
They are casualties of war and its regrettable that they have to die in a war that could of been prevented if lebanon just would of adhered to un resolution 1559.

The reason Israelis are not condemned for what they are doing is because they are DEFENDING themselves against TERRORISTS who are housing their missiles in PEOPLE'S BACKYARDS and using innocent civilians as HUMAN SHIELDS.
