Thanks, but back to the matter at hand...how can we expect to move forward from this situation? The extremists know that they only have to threaten, and become violent to get an apology. From the Pope even!! What would be the outcome if islamofascists did decide to kill the Pope? What would happen with worldly affairs then?? Anybody else have input? Just curious about what everyone thinks. I'm not religious in the least, but there is some inherent respect given to the Pope in my opinion, I do believe a muslim (Turk actually if I remember reading correctly) that shot Pope John Paul in the 80's. Anybody here that was around then? What was the reaction?
That is the million dollar question. I know what not to do and that is what Spain did which was to pack up and run home after the rail bombing. That made me sick and sent the message that terror does work and the extremists can get their way thru violence. If Spain had stuck it out I wonder if the London attacks would have happened. Probably, but the Brits are standing strong.

As far as the Pope shooting. It was seen as the act of a crazed lunatic and not an act of terror by muslims against the west or Christ based religon.
