Subject: '' Targeted Killing ''
I cannot understand the double standard of the media and a good portion of the American public with regard to Jared Loughner's shooting rampage. By all accounts the Congresswoman, Gabrielle Giffords, seems to have been targeted because of Loughner's political views. The United States and Israeli governments routinely commit these types of murders against their political opponents throughout the Middle East and there is little if any condemnation on the part of media pundits or the public at large. Often these state sponsored acts of violence are accompanied by a large amount of so-called collateral damage which often but not exclusively consists of the targets immediate family e.g. wife, parents, children etc. Perhaps if Loughner had dropped a thousand pound bomb on the apartment house where Giffords lived or fired a missile from a drone at his target the public would be more sympathetic to his actions.
