Or is it just that thick people have a hard time thinking that terrorists are smarter than they are?Trump mentions that the media keeps calling these terrorist planners 'masterminds' in an effort to make them sexy. I had had the same thought some weeks ago when I had read article after article talking about how the Paris terrorist attack coordinator was a 'mastermind.' It was sickening. It doesn't take a genius to find a crowd and bomb or gun them down and then get killed by police. For f's sake, the media f'ing disgusting.
Trump accuses media of 'glamorizing' terrorists
Smart? What's smart about the terrorists? They are criminal animals who kill totally innocent people in the name of an ideology. And you think they are smart.
I don't think intelligence is based on whether you kill people or not.
How many people have killed innocent people in the name of US ideology, the oil ideology, or the anti-Communist ideology?
Are you going to say that none of this was smart? Well, not much of the Vietnam war was smart, and nothing of the Iraq war either, right?
I think smart people can do bad things. I think that often bad things ARE DONE by smart people. Hitler, he wasn't stupid. Stalin? No stupid either. Doesn't mean everything they did was good.
Smart is making the right decisions. And killing your enemy might just be a smart move, as then you are the winner. And then you can do what you like.
