I guess my first reaction to this (and pretty much everything else that Jaz says) is that he may be a founder member of the best band in the universe, but he does talk a lot of nonsense.
Further, I have absolutely no time for the men who killed my fellow Londoners this summer, nor my fellow Americans in 2001; whatever the rights and wrongs of their cause, killing random people is plain old wrong.
But what I also don't get - Alex - is why suicide bombers are cowardly. Stupid, gullible, brainwashed, wicked... I can see all of those - but cowardly?
(As for noble or admirable - no way Jose.)
