It is very sad, that in a fight between a respective government and extremist organizations, it is always the innocent people who get maimed for life or even worse, die a brutal death.
What is the logic behind this ?
Extremist organizations always target unarmed innocent men, women and children, especially in the name of nationality and religion, to take revenge against the respective government, and very sadistically they justify their ruthless and cowardly actions by calling it "jihad" or "freedom struggle".
This is exactly the state of affair in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kashmir, Sri Lanka, Somalia, Sudan, Lebanon, Pakistan, Israel, Palestine and god only knows where else.
Even the respective government is responsible to a large extent because of the unfavorable policies that are at times adopted with certain hideous intentions.
The least that can be done by the respective government and extremist organizations, is to spare innocent people regardless of their religion and nationality because, they have nothing to do with all this meaningless violence and are just trying to lead normal lives with hopes and aspirations.
