i always read the newspaper twice a day, and every day there has to be something to do with the suicide bombings in iraq and other happenings that occur in that side of the Earth, am i being horrible in not caring about their situation?? (they die everyday anyway)

The problem is that there is just nothing we can do about it. They have been doing this for thousands of years and will not stop. I care that innocent people are being killed, but can't do anything to stop it. So, I just don't let it get to me and figure we are better off trying to fix things here that we can actually control.

I don't think the word "horrible" should be used. It is a terrible thing happeneing to the people in the middle east......especially the American troops that are dying for a war not declared. Just like Viet Nam. Don't feel horrilbe about it, maybe being thankful we have American Troops that keep these bombings from your part of the world. The saddest thing to me is for "them" it is an honor to die. How can we possibly fight against humans that want to be martyrs and die. If you dont care about them being bombed because they are going to die anyway, try caring about the troops dying right beside them to keep you and yours safe.

I dont care about the suicide bombers, but I do feel sorry for their innocent vitcims. I do not know how anyone can believe that he is going to heaven and have 40 virgins if he kills innocent people. I believe that he will wake up in hell. Right now, there are a lot of suicide bombers because the country is in transit and there are f people who would like to be the dicator who have convienced hopeless uneducated people that they will be heroes as suicide bombers. As the country settles down and I believe it will settle down on the next couple of years, there will not be as many killings.

Because there are so many reporting of deaths going on everywhere people tend to get desensitized to the fact that they were killed, not natural deaths and eventually don't care what happens anymore unless it happens in their home-front.
As for me I could care less what happens over there. To me it is not important. Over here is important.

I followed it all closely for about 2 years. Nothing's changed. What's the sense in listening to it. There's nothing we can do for them that isn't already being done. No, I don't think it's horrible of you.

i think it would be better if they would report positive news from over there for once but i think today people only like to here bad stuff.

You are de-sensitized by the constant violent news.
