speculation on the societal/religious/rationality differences that separate our society from those involved with this will undoubtedly go on.
for now, i think it's safe to say that there are people out there whose conception of the world and human life is very different from the one i hold.
there isn't a person on this earth i would do this to. if i were to find hitler, osama bin laden, stalin and pal pot in my country... doing this wouldn't even cross my mind. it's just hard to wrap my mind around people celebrating the cold-blooded murder of four security guards sent to monitor shipments of free food given to their own people, and then removing all dignity from their victims.
man...

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
