We learned from history that terrorism is a cancer. World War Two started with the burning of synagogues and then they burned people.

Not only synagogues are holy, but so are all places where people find their affinity with their God.

We asked the Pope to talk about it (synagogues), to deplore it and to issue a strong appeal against it.

We have to continue to prove that Jews and Muslims are not enemies.

All that is left to do is pray.

A foreign national who is captured and determined to be an enemy combatant in the world war on terrorism has no more right to a habeas corpus appeal to our courts than did a captured soldier of the Axis powers during World War II.
