All this scholarly analysis is OK.How is mankind going to find the means to modify the conduct & behaviour of the stronger & the mighty?Even the UNO which came into existence only to lead humanity into peace has not succeeded in averting wars & genocide in diverse regions of the world! 2.Is the perpetration of terror an inevitable consequence of the prevalent tensions between the more prosperous societies & the poorer one's. 3.If this explanation is extended extremism/terrorism will stop at nothing to exact it's toll of 'revenge' without observance of any rules or conventions. In this context it is frightening to visualise a scenario in which the die hard extemist can put together a crude nuclear device which can cause enormous radiation hazard to innocent lives!! 4.It is time mankind stepped back from the precipice & heed the wise counsels of peacemakers ; Was not His Holiness The Pope John Paul II right in expressing his disagreement with the US intention to go to war in Iraq?

Why did they not care to show respect to his persuasion to avoid war? 5.In the wake of the London bomb
