Event 'not for bombers' families'

[QueenOfQuotes]

hmmm not sure what to make of this....especially

"It would not be fair for the families of the bombers to sit beside a mother or father who has lost a son or daughter, she said."

Now presuming that the families had no idea what the bombers were up to this seems a pretty unfair comment to make.

It would be different if the families of the victims had been asked for their opinion, but it appears this has been a DCMS decision without any input from those who were directly affected.

Maybe not the oldest one as a victim, but the younger ones certainly - victims of brainwashing, propaganda etc. Obviously not vitims in the same sense as those who were murdered. And their families, certainly. I cannot understand people that don't have sympathy for the parents - could there be anything worse than knowing your son is a murderer? And dying at the same time so you can't even ask "why"?
