If someone killed my family, I would go after the ones that actually did the deed. Not some random people on the way back home to their families.
Extremism on either side is the same thing, becoming an extremists means you become the same as the extremists you hate, the only difference is that one side is using religion as a tool, either way killing civilians is wrong.

I see most that support and defend religions have never read any of their official books. The bible has stories of conquest and wars, many done at gods hand. The Quran sets a culture of domination and control, along with the religion running the state, it teaches of infidels whom must be converted to Islam or killed at the hand of a true Muslim. Those that say all religious don't go verbatim, listen up.....from a child thru gatherings, prayers, services, school, government, law, all aspects of life are ALL based on the teachings in the Quran. Now how would you react if this was done in America.....and it was Christian???

I would not. Nothing in life is permanent, and that includes the life of your child. From the moment they're born, you have already accepted they're going to die some day. Whether it's a long or a short life, temporary is temporary and you can't change what has already happened, you can only accept it and move on. Why make others lose their children, just because you can't accept the death of your own?

No parent should ever bury there own child. You good sir have never gone down that dark path. Easier said then done.

I like your philosophy though, if only this would work on every aspect of life. like black Americans today mad about an enslavement that happened long long ago and taking it out on white folks today that had absolutely nothing to do with it. There are a lot of things that need to be let go cuz whats done is done and long ago. But these killings are very recent and hard for them to let go. Tell me you have the balls to tell a grieving parent this, walk away unharmed and i will give you my weeks pay.
