It's also interesting that something like 24 people of Pakistani
descent felt so alienated in the land of their birth that they'd want
to kill themselves along with planeloads of UK citizens.

They are, if guilty, either brainwashed or the brainwashers. The US had
something similar with the Branch Davidians.

I don't recall the Branch Dividians wanting to bring down several
thousand travelers, as well as as many as possible on the ground.


I said 'similar'. What did they expect to use all those weapons for, if
not to kill a lot of people?

Defense. They were paranoid, not murderous. Their paranoia was partly
justified.

Exactly. The government screwed up, BIG TIME. They could have had
Koresh on any number of his trips into town to do his business.
No, they burned men, women, and children.
