Moscow Metro suicide bombings

[Zhukov]

Generally I think you can only be an expert on a subject or situation if you have first hand accounts of such things, like being there when the world trade center in New York was attacked, or knowing what it feels like to live behind the Iron Curtain, or in North Korea. Or to be an ethnic minority in a place that subjects you to harassment.

Some people try to talk outside of their league. Maybe read a few articles or see a TV show, and then suddenly they are an expert. The Leader, you say you are 'writing a paper' on terrorism, but you seem to not only know nothing about your subject matter, but even worse, you sound as if you think you know better than people that HAVE had first hand experiences such as myself.

Then there are a few people who, despite not having first hand experiences with things like "terrorism" (or at least what the government calls terrorism these days) seem to have a profound knowledge and understanding of not only the facts, but the emotions behind it. I will leave you guys to ponder on who that may be in this thread.
