Quoting catwoman: Quoting miss_ceyda: Quoting lady in red: Wait and see if you are still ofthis opinion when you have children of your own Miss Ceyda |
It was only an example
I meant in any case similar to that.. Lets say someone murdered a member of my family. Personally, before wanting to actually murder the person who did it, I would prefer to learn the reason.
Everything has a reason at the end of the day. And if it turns out that this action was meaningless then yeah, the eye for an eye thang is great.
But despite what Saddam has done...the lives he has destroyed.. .dont you think that he should be asked what his motive was.??
Maybe he has already stated his reason, I personally dont know.
But there are many people who can feel so passionately about something which they dont actually know about.
This is also the same for both of my examples. |
That is why they had court trials - to give him a chance to tell the story from his own perspective. However, I don't think there is a "reason" that would be acceptable to us for such atrocities.
Some poeple just aren't sensitive to other human beings. Killing, torturing someone, especially someone weaker, doesn't sound like a big deal to them. It's a psychopathology that must have been deeply engraved into the person's mind and I think that in such cases, it's impossible to 'cure' those people. Once our brain is hardwired, it's impossible to change those connections. |
Catwoman, I agree with you.
What I have said is only me, trying to see events from different perspectives.
I agree with you when you say that when a certain psychopatholgy is engraved into ones mind, it's impossible to cure. (You would be very surprised how much I know about this actually.)
But then.. why has that person become that way?
Was it their upbringing? Environment? Why? What is the reason?
If there is no actual reason for the killings, or a reason which is not good enough then there must be a reason for why this person has turned out in this way?
Why does no one care about this?
And yeah, another thing.. A few people here have described Saddam's death as "justice"? Maybe so, if Iraq was never bombed? I think that may have counted as revenge dont you?
Im sure Saddam didnt like the fact that his country was being bombed?
But then again, hey.. this is all being done for the Iraqi people yeah?
Why did none of us Westerners think about the Iraqi people when we were bombing them.
Would us,dropping bombs on random towns, killing people's "children, husbands, wifes, parents, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, grandparents", not make us as bad as Saddam??
I think it would.
And now we are "happy" because Saddam is going to be killed? When we did exactly the same thing as him? What does this mean arkadaşlar? Do we not deserve the same punishment?
