Maybe she and her baby had an enormous karmic debt to pay, too.  Maybe all
of Afghanistan needs to pay it and learn lessons.  Or maybe karma has a
double standard.

Or maybe barbara100 at jpx.net simply wrote something incredibly stupid and
callous less than 12 hours after thousands of civilians from all over the
world were murdered by a anonymous, suicidal fanatics--suggesting that those
people actually had it coming.  Perhaps barbara100 at jpx.net  is the pervert
who tried to link "karmic" and "debt" together.

What a puzzlement!  I just can't figure out this karma thing as expressed by
barbara100 at jpx.net.  Maybe it's just that other people on this list know
better than I do.  Maybe I should just understand that, while I happen to be
overwhelmed trying to sort out the complicated state of the world, they are
absolutely clear-headed and right-minded, able to judge who deserves to be
killed and also able to foresee the future.  They know what's right, and
who's wrong, and who should be killed, and who should be insulted, and who
is privileged to take revenge.  Or maybe they're just as ignorant and
informed as all the rest of us, only more prone to offensive or obnoxious
rhetoric, fueling verbal battles even while they cry out to pacify military
ones.

But what do I know?  I'm just
