In the Middle East & in Europe

  • In the Middle East the religion is taking up the role of the state, and when that happens you get the kind of cruelty we are seeing; 
  • In Europe the state is taking up the role of religion, and when that happens you get the kind of mildness we are seeing. 
  • In the Middle East the religion is not performing its function and as a result raging vengeance is overwhelming retributive justice; 
  • In Europe the state is not performing its function and as a result compensatory justice is overwhelming retributive justice. 
  • In the Middle East case the prosecutors are unfettered; 
  • In the European case they are disabled.
