Great post, thanks for this one Milu...
Looking at the photos, it is not surprising to see these people smiling, singing, drinking,
having fun with their dogs etc.
After all...they are human, and enjoyment on some level is part of the human experience.
I wouldnt be surprised if the members of Al Quaeda do the same things during their time off
from killing and planning to kill.
It just shows that people can be brainwashed into a doctrination very very easily, while
seemingly maintaining "normal lives" on the exterior.
This happens at all levels of society...from the smallest indoctrination of a lifestyle consisting
of smaller-level indiscrections (such as serial adultry, petty theft, general dishonesty)....to
of course larger ones such as mass murder in the name of the state and religion.
Bottom line is that we all are 'brainwashed' to some degree, as our minds have been shaped
to believe in the certain causes that we believe in... and are convicted in. Lucky for us, that
the majority of us, do not subscribe to the really destructive perspectives... for the most part.
