^ True unfortunately and we, the average people, obviously have no say in who should be convicted and who should be freed, but it does make for an interesting discussion.

hmm I agree and disagree.

Agree because all terrorists are hate mongers and disagree because not all hate mongers are terrorists. I consider the likes of Geert Wilders hate mongers. As far as I know, he hasn’t killed anyone. He was tried in the court but granted freedom of speech and was not convicted of hate mongering and definitely not called a terrorist. Anders Breivik, who shares the same views as Geert Wilders, is however a terrorist for obvious reasons.

the way you put it, yes, there’s that difference. My point was hate mongers damage brains and that one way or another leads to hate crimes, which is terrorism..

And not all terrorists are hate mongers, like you said, some are just plaine freedom fighters and they kill without giving it a 2nd thought almost like soldiers. How do we differentiate?
