Wah what a comparison? AM studio to Terrorism. One believes completely is peace loving and filled with love towards humanity, tries to unite humans. The other exactly believes in the opposite. Your thought itself speaks out you didn't do it right. Also ethics of killing is different than the art. So is the law. If I have to speak in your words get this fact Kalashnikov invented the gun for protecting his motherland from the hands of enemies. Will his ethics be questioned if its used for killing innocent? Scientists strive hard to develop theories & science should they be executed if their work is used for mass destruction?
