Hello,
I’m doing research on terrorism, and I’ve put together a pre-survey questionnaire that I’m circulating in order to get feedback on what a non-biased (non-western, white, male) survey might look like. The final survey will go out later this year.
The survey can be accessed at johnmaszka.com/SURVEY.html
Would you post it, and possibly circulate it? I’m very interested in incorporating the views of women, non-whites, and people living outside of America and Western Europe.
I’d appreciate it.
Thanks!
Take care,
John Maszka
Shame, it’s a great shame for all the living sensible human being.
If any law lead some(barbaric!) people to such a barbaric act, that should not exist.
This civilized should not experience this sort of atrocity.
I hope Pakistan should be a bit civilized by rejecting this cruel, barbaric shariah law.
Shariah law is nothing but a middle-age barbaric legacy.This is not relevant in the era.
