Chasm of perception

It is now becoming apparent that the problems posed by terrorism are being viewed very differently by "right" and "left." We contend that dealing others' desire to engage in terrorism should not be political - as the Talmud in the Tractate Sanhedrin (72a) commands, "if they try to kill you, kill them first."

However, we cannot help but be struck by the reaction from some "left" commentators doubting the reality of terror plots.

The charges look pretty comprehensive. Is it really so hard to believe?
