Do you ever look out at your students and wonder if any of them will be a terrorist? How can anyone tell? Do you ever ask your students their views on terrorism? Your poem is thoughtful and relevant in our world today. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn

What a good question. Who becomes a terrorist? Are they ordinary people just fed up with injustice? Are they good people who have been provoked beyond tolerance? Do some of them enjoy killing and introducing terror into the lives of innocent people? I believe it's a mixture of all these things. But I tend to agree with you. Lethal weapons in the skies raining down terror is not the answer. Surely, more innocent lives will be lost without justification. And those who survive remember these horrible deeds, and just might be the future terrorists. So it is a vicious cycle without end. This must be carefully thought out before any action is taken. You presented this dilemma so well, Kassem.

so this is the poem for the Anthology project ''POETRY AGAINST TERROR''. Please, Kassem, tell me: DID YOU WRITE IT IN YOUR NATIVE LANGUAGE and then translated into English? If so, WHAT LANGUAGE? ARAB or FRENCH? In Lebanon French is spoken by many, right? Do you have a FRENCH TEXT, maybe?
