I hear what you are saying, and would agree if I saw virtuality parallel with reality. I don't. To me, virtuality is a place where we can kill characters, blow people up, depict unnatural acts, etc. without hurting anyone.
The youTube terrorists are real people, their videos show extreme violence against real people. They make me angry, and they make me want to puke. Just because something is on video doesn't make it virtual, to me a least. The people you kill in the virtual world can get up and be in the next round.
