Hunger Strikes in Morocco

This is such a hard place to put myself in thought. I want to take a side, but cannot. I honestly can't bring myself to forgive those who take part in suicide/terrorist bombing. Killing hundreds of other innocent people just to make a point across. Violence is never the answer. The accusations fly freely however, taking those who may be innocent into custody.

Hundreds of charged prisoners of Morocco are taking a hunger strike pleading to have fair trial. What is so difficult about this situation is that, who really deserves the fair trial...and who does not? Hunger strikes have been taking place in 11 prisons. How corrupt can man be to take part in a justified strike, and he does not deserve it? It is yet AGAIN one more issue with today's morals.
