Gary, as I see it, the Noahide laws have been incorporated into current legal codes of many countries, and the courts of justice of these countries enforce these laws. The Noahide laws were, if it is true that Noah actually taught them, very old and rudimentary.
..... There are now very many religions, and some of them have many versions/denominations, but their clergy often not at all enforce the requirements of these (quite out of date?) religions.
..... All countries are not only entitled, but even required, to defend their citizens, and terrorists can only be counteracted by "proper" countermeasures that must remain in place as long as more terrorist acts can be expected. Unfortunately terrorists do not conform to "civilized" methods/customs, and therefore, in my opinion, they should be treated in the same way as they are treating their victims.
..... Terrorists know where guns are located, but after their activities their victims are rarely in a position to use guns against the terrorists. And suicide bombers WANT to die, they couldn't care less if they are killed by police or the military or the judicial system. It's highly unlikely that terrorists even think of Noah, or about his laws.
