"Anyone can see that terrorism is
dangerous and terrorists murder people. Terrorism is morally
inferior to an ethic of care - which aims to mend the suffering of
others. It is even inferior to an ethic of retribution - which at
least pretends to first determine the responsibility of those it
kills. It is much more difficult, however, to ascertain the
meaning of terrorism for the democratic citizen."
--Peter Meyers, "Defend
Politics Against Terrorism"
