Russ,

Hope you are doing OK.

It's hard to understand what you are going through.

For what it's worth....

Back in 1975 I taught at an American School in Hampstead England. The IRA were setting off bombs there over a war that had started hundreds of years before.

On a typical morning, before we went to school, we had to look in the bonnet of our cars, check under the tires and in the trunk.

One Friday night, after a long day, a fellow tried to get into his car, about three blocks away from where my wife and I lived...We heard the bomb go off...we felt our bed shake...he died.

I've been in the military(11years...some active...some reserves). I was taught to face the enemy head on.

Terrorists are COWARDS. I don't care if they blow themselves up. They are afraid to face what they call their enemy face to face.

Sorry if I got a bit passionate here.
