When will this end?

The terrorists have struck again and the only thing I can think of right now is that when those criminals get caught I want the families of the victims to have access to them so that they can beat them bloody. It's wrong for me to say that. I know. It's just that even if they do get caught and go to prison it doesn't seem enough. Those people did nothing wrong. They were just going to work and then "BOOM", they wake up and everything around them is in shambles without any warning.

I cannot claim that I can understand why the terrorists hate the west so much. I know they have their reasons. Injustice was done was done to them. The west corrupted the east. These countries keep on meddling in things they shouldn't. But even if these are their reasons, they are not enough to justify killing civilians.

We were under the Spanish rule for over 300 years. And during those years we were abused. Then the United States came and helped us but it turned out that they did that because they wanted to occupy us too. They waged war on the soldiers who wanted us to have independence and not be under another country's rule. We have suffered too. But you don't see us pulling out guns and plotting to bomb people going to work half way around the world.

My heart goes out to London and her citizens. I know you are frightened and won't be sleeping well for awhile, but please know that we support you.

I would also like to say that my heart goes out to the people who may experience having suspicious looks thrown their way because of the way they look. In a perfect world the way we look shouldn't garner mistrust but it isn't a perfect world and the people are wary. I'm not saying that such behavior is right because it just plain isn't but I can't say that I don't see the reason behind it. I basically wish them to have the strength to persevere and to not lose hope that this won't pass.
