I would not be surprise to see an episode written that involves a
religious zealots who plan to destroy whole cities by getting followers to
fly highjacked spaceships into them setting off the antimatter pods as

they
do so. The planet these beings are from have declared the total
obliteration of all other cavitations as there purpose. The plot and
message of the story will be how unfair it is that the being (people,
lifeforms) of the other planets in their solar system don't like them and
check their luggage more closely when they visit. Muslim extremist,
airplanes, Iran, Taliban, buildings, Islam, and liberals who don't believe
evil people exist are not mentioned, but the meaning will be clear.


Well, there was a "terrorism" episode last year sometime, addressing that
lovely "Terrorist... or FREEDOM FIGHTER?" question. The "bad guy" was Kurgan
from the first Highlander movie.

I wonder if that ep will be banned in the UK in the same way as "The
High Ground"?

....Actually, the only reason that it was banned was because the
episode predicted that the IRA would be successful in driving the
Limeys out of Ireland in the mid-21st century, not because of the
debating issues over what makes a revolutionary a terrorist and vice
versa.
