Lately all that's being discussed on news has been mainly about the suicide bombings going on in Palsetine or Jerusalem. How do you view suicide bombing that is going on right now in the Middle East(considering the circumstances), as well as simply just generally?
In war, thoe involved have usually consented to it. Suicide bombers do not allow for those who they harm to consent to become a part of war. Killing anyone is wrong. That is why i disagree with war. But killing someone who unlike a soldier, does not think hmm I may get shot today, is immoral.

I hate to say it, MacSuxHansonRules, but that sounds a lot like what the United States is doing to the people in Afghanistan right now. Those aren't only terrorists that are being killed, those are people that would have no part in this war if they had a chance.
I do agree with you that war is a very, very bad thing. In every war there will be casualties, and in war, the largest number of casualties are those people who aren't soldiers, who don't fight and who were killed only because they fell under the loose catagory of "the enemy." THAT is what George Bush doesn't tell the world about the "War On Terrorism." Never does he say "Terrorism must end at the cost of thousands of innocent lives."
I completely agree that the US is acting like terrorists. They've bombed out villages and places that are populated with civilians.
The events that are going on in the Middle East have been going on since I think World War II. But just in the past month or so, they have escalated. In general, I think that suicide bombing is terrible. I mean, I still don't know which side is the bad side. They have been fighting forever. Still, it is horrible that the Palistinians and Isralies cannot get along. I was watching something on the news, and kids that attending school, feel safer in the schools. That, and the teenagers can't go shopping in fear that they might die. So, whatever the problem is over there, it needs to be fixed and fixed now!
