cowardice is the innate ability to murder a child and claim that this act will get the killer to heaven.

"Dastardly" was given as a synonym for cowardly and the definition for dastardly was: 1 : COWARDLY 2 : characterized by underhandedness or treachery <a dastardly attack> <a dastardly villain>
Obviously, 2 applies to the WTC tragedy.
But I agree with fiberbabe - it's hard to get your head around the concept. Sounds right until you try to puzzle out the actual meaning, then it's hard to put it precisely into words.

It was a sociopathic hit-and-run in which the pawns died but the fanatic political faction has run and is hiding. Remember which culture invented chess?

Thank you Max. I wasn't sure myself but I knew it began in that general area of this planet.

"Talieban, the extremist thugs sheltering Bin Laden."
I'm not sure it is fair to call the Afghanistans thugs. Remember the many years of horror they went through, and their entitlement to feel their religion pulled them through. Give them more time to recover, and they may mellow a bit.

anad while we are at it, let's remember who trained Bin Liner - our friends in the good ol' CIA. Which reminds us all that in the complexities of realpolitik, truth and lies are merely expedient matters of timing.

I have always understood the reference to cowardice to apply to the source of the horrific acts -- those who planned, organized and financed this attack and who hid behind the ones they sent to complete the plan; those who now still hide, and who will hide behind the bodies of children if prepared and armed adults come after them. Yes, they are COWARDS.
