9.11 Paragraph
The terrorists on the planes that crashed into the twin towers may have been less guilty than we think. Osama Bin Laden made them feel like they did not have an option not to commit this terrible crime if they ever wanted to get to heaven. He told them, “Do not disagree, obey.” It was okay for them to be scared, because “fear is a great worship.” I think that the terrorists did have a choice, but they were so brainwashed that they thought crashing the planes was the only way they could get to heaven. They were afraid that if they didn’t go through with it they would be punished. I’m not saying they aren’t to blame, but you might ought to think twice next time you say they are.

I don't think that you understand that these men so fully believed their feelings that, to them, they were truth. They didn't "feel like",they weren't "brainwashed." These beliefs were their own-- the views of the radicals are no less valid than your "normal" views.

ReplyDeleteGreat job! SH
ReplyDeleteI totally agree! When you have such a powerful leader beating new ideas into your head by gunpoint, I think most people would do as they wer asked!
ReplyDeleteTypo, I meant were :)
ReplyDeleteI do agree that this is a possibilty and helped have them do this, but i also think that there could be a little self-devotion rather than just Osama teaching them.
ReplyDeleteI agree Mr. Ryan. This makes some delicious sense to me. I totally think the same thing as you do.
