Bitter Veracity of Blood for Blood

Revenge is a kind of wild justice; which the more man’s nature runs to, the more ought to law to weed it out.

In Sri Lanka revenge factor is present in the Tamil Tigers against the Sri Lankan Army. The numbers of suicide bombers of this Hindu extremist organization are more than the combined attacks that are alleged to be commenced by the Palestinian and the Lebanese fighters. In Palestine vengeance is present in the hearts and minds of the natives against Israeli troops. Lebanese Hezbollah used this weapon against Israel and the foreign troops. In Chechnya the retribution was inflicted by the “Black Widows” against the Red Army. The Turkish Kurds are using suicide bombing as weapon against Turkish government and military installations. Thus revenge is present in human nature. Time and again military operations of various states are adding in the numbers of suicide bombers. As a case study take the example of a rivalry between two families. If family member of one family is murdered then the victimized family kills the murderer or targets his family member to settle the scores without considering legality and without caring whether their target was actually involved in the conflict. His blood relation is sufficient justification for the rivals to victimize that person. In this case revenge factor only trim down when the rival parties exhausted by bloodshed resort to negotiation or an intermediary play a role to bring amicable settlement between the bloodthirsty enemies. If this is the case at a very limited scale how is it possible to prevent revenge factor in a volatile situation when wide range of targets are available.

Thus in order to get rid of casualties resulting from suicide bombing engrossed in revenge its root causes must be addressed instead of resorting to blind military operations that can only deteriorate the already grim situation. Unjust army operations and illegal occupations by depriving liberty to natives in various parts of the world are perpetually increasing the numbers of terrorist elements that are ready for settling of scores. Several of these elements resorting to terrorist activities are the byproducts of the revenge generated due to sufferings of their relatives. Diplomacy and dialogue is the best way to shrink the numbers of miscreants and terrorist elements in the society. The power inebriated states sponsoring terrorism in the world should end their unjust atrocities and illegal grabbing; otherwise, they would continue to harvest bitter fruits in the form of suicide bombings commenced by the suffering communities.
