The bad part is justifying "fatwa" culture. Please understand. "Fatwa" is or should be illegal in a democratic country. For good or bad, please absolve of this fatwa culture.
Here in the U.S., we've had the spectacle of Muslim organizations backing a fatwa condemning attacks on innocent persons - four years after 9-11. The same bon-bon, Qur'an 5:32 (rather, a partial quote divorced from context), was used as the basis for condemning attacks on "innocents." As noted by Robert Spencer in Jihad Watch, the fatwa doesn't address statements by Muslims to the effect that civilians in various places are not innocent, and are not to be distinguished from combatants.
