If the Pope announced a crusade against Switzerland (and it wouldn’t be the first time), would you attack your colleagues?
No, but potentially some nutcase would do something stupid. Because there are plenty of stupid people, some of which have some egocentric and narcissic complexes, which can turn into overreaching religiousness and a feeling to be the chosen one to fix a perceived problem. And this is why you do not want those type of news on the fron pages. Somebody might want to get the same attention.

Ignoring Gadaffi would be the most effective way to counter potential terrorism, but that is unfortunately not the way our media works.
