I think with Terrorism by any nationality, it is an extreme minority of that nationality which is causing the problem, an extreme minority of one set of people and the same with another set of people, all of which often claim to be acting for the majority. If it were that the minority sought the oppinnion of the majority, they might well find that their services are not required, I suspect that is why they do not ask, but just simply do. The reality is, terrorists are nothing but thugs, people who have to use violence to make themselves heard.
Perhaps it is of more use that these pathetic crimes against people who pose no danger do go unreported to the masses and the perpetrators caught with all haste so that they can be put out of harm's way, this remembering that a terrorists greatest tool is publicity, don't give them it.
I suspect though this incident was not so much an act of terrorism, but simply a hate crime, a deed carried out by pathetic individuals at a time when the victims can pose no threat to the assailants. An assault against women and children, that figures, like I said, but emphasis on the word PATHETIC !
