Which means that your librarians should be investigated, Magi, because
such books should not be in the children's section. Children should
read books to build character not to become terrorists and criminals.

Freedom of Speech has it's limitations, Magi. Check your law library
hereto. Teaching others on to blow people up is such a limitation. I
hope you are no fan of Pat Robertson, the Christian Coalition founder.
This alleged religious man said a few days ago, during a recent Club
700 episode, that it would not be a bad idea to plant a nuclear device
underneath the U.S. State Department. That man is crazy, he is openly
advocating terrorism, and he is abusing the First Amendment, free
speech for his evil intentions and hatred. If he has problems with the
State Department, why is he not filing a penal complaint against them
or why is he not suing them?
