The cases I mentioned, and that you mentioned, are all to do with groups of people that thought it reasonable to attack and kill innocent civilians in order to alter the political behaviour of a real or perceived aggressor. Some of the incidents I mentioned have civil-war aspects, some are ideological. As are the little collection you pasted. Look, I’m not addressing your views on racial profiling per se, I’m addressing your unthinkingly copying & pasting email glurge that contains extremely select data, of which some incidents are related, but some are entirely unrelated to the others.
