Events in Northern Ireland have killed approx 3600 in the last 40years - not too far off.
- MikeCapone 16y agoThe timeframe probably makes the psychological impact different (over 40 years vs. in one day), though.
- dfghjkhgbfd 16y agoYes two generations of train stations closed because of bomb scares, of weekly news reports of a new bomb blast.
- MikeCapone 16y ago"Different" means exactly that. I'm not downplaying it, just saying that it's not as easy to compare as saying that the number of deaths is similar.
- arethuza 16y agoPersonally I think the lesson to be learned from Northern Ireland is to avoid demonizing terrorists - it really doesn't achieve anything. Try and understand what it motivating them and you might stand a chance of working things out.
