Well said. But to be fair it must be noted that the terrorists are also
willing to die for their principles - or at least for their religion. Ones
dedication to a principle does not necessarily prove the validity of that
principle.

If the terrorists want to die for their religion, so be it -- I'm all for
helping them to do so. It's their willingness to *kill* for it that makes them
dangerous.
