    Using your example, I do think that you do not have to worry about the
    Muslim children. These are good kids who will do what they are told. It
    seems to me that you will have to worry about the leaders who use these
    kids as tools and order the young people to blow themselves up. I also
    think you might want to worry about politicians who put flames under these
    kind of conflicts.
