"The good news is that in the long run they always fail".
They didn't fail in Lebanon. They transformed a secular democracy into an Islamist hellhole. If you think the same can't happen to Europe, you are wrong!

Please let me remind you that I am referring to "nutters". i.e. Those people amongst us whose ideas and beliefs are so misguided that they fail to see that their extreme actions are detrimental to the furtherance of their cause.

They have NEVER been confined to any particular religious OR political persuasion!

I dispute your statement about Lebanon because it didn't even exist as a self-governing country before 1943; so I fail to see how what has happened (or is still happening) in that country can be "in the long run".

It may very well be that the "secular democracy" that you describe will develop into an "Islamist hellhole" but I would like to point out that there are many millions of people happily living in Islamic countries; and many Muslims happily living in non-Islamic countries like the UK.

As there are more Muslim people living in the UK than in the whole of Lebanon, I would like to refer you to the last line within the Wikipedia description of Lebanon which states ...

"As the number of Syrian refugees increases, the Lebanese Forces Party, the Kataeb Party, and the Free Patriotic Movement fear the country’s sectarian based political system is being undermined."

Perhaps the UK should have contributed more Foreign Aid to Lebanon when the crisis first arose; and the current problems could probably have been avoided. :thumb:

Er ... surely your objection to terrorism is that the terrorists are trying to impose THEIR form of dictatorship on YOU?

If so, could you please explain how YOUR form dictatorship will be better than THEIR form of dictatorship?

As there are many, many thousands of "Human Rights" I think that it is only fair that you explain which ones in particular you wish to abandon.


Note:

I use the word "abandon" because the problem with "suspending" Human Rights is that history shows that when a person relinquishes a "right" of any kind he has to fight long and hard before that "right" is returned to him.

another thread that's descending into a padlock ending,all Im gonna say on this terrible incident is RIP to that poor little mixed race kid of british nationality that has been confirmed today,NO child should have their life cut short by incidents like that

I didn't suggest that violent nuttery is confined to Muslims because it isn't - although they do have a twisted delusional worldview that is particularly well suited to idiocy.
We could look to Russia in 1917, to Germany in the 30's, Cuba or Cambodia as examples of violent nutters gaining control to the detriment of he populous.
However, the subject under discussion is islamist violence and Lebanon was just a tiny example of Islamists "nutters" conducting a campaign of terrorism as an interim step to full control.
For additional insights regarding what happened, check out the stories of people like Brigitte Gabriel.

This a well practiced model because Mohammed himself was a warlord who slaughtered Jewish and pagan Arab tribes alike in his lifetime. Islam has always been spread through violence and the death of millions. The Islamic conquest of India is widely regarded to be the biggest holocaust in human history with more than 80 million dead - and who knows how many millions in Malaya, Indonesia and Africa?
This is something that the salafists have every intention of bringing to Europe and the rest of the developed world.
And don't think it's only a tiny minority either. The results of Channel 4's 2016 survey of Muslim attitudes makes sobering reading.

Which India is that?

I lived and worked in India for roughly 50% of the eight years from 1995 to 2003 and during this time I worked with Indian Christians, Indian Hindus, Indian Muslims and a Sikh to two.

I even helped this multi-ethnic society to celebrate 50 years of Indian Independence in 1997 and everyone was proud to be an Indian; regardless of their particular religious persuasion.

If you are referring to the people who died after the UK split up the area that they had controlled for nearly one hundred years then you have to look at what the UK did at the time and the chronic mess they made of it.

The fact that so many people died was mainly due to the maladministration of the UK government than any re-writing of history to blame specific religious factions within India.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_British_Raj

PS

With regard to Muhammad as a "warlord" please read through this small article on the subject, especially the current thinking not quite so biased as that of the early Christians.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Muhammad

For the record, I've spent around 4 years in India when I add it up - mostly in blocks of around 3 months duration but still enough to add up to more time in the sub-continent than most British Indians.

I'm not talking about partition (although that was bloody enough), I'm talking about the invasion of India by Mahmud Ghazni from about 1000 A.D.

Good to hear that the worthless piece of excrement behind the Barcelona attack was shot dead by Police today. One less.

Many thanks for the link. I didn't even know that it existed but I have waded through all 615 Pages to discover what the UK's Muslims are thinking ...

... and I am pleasantly surprised! :thumb: :thumb:

I was please to see that:

o ONLY 1% of themi would like a separate islamic state within the UK.

o 66% prefer same sex schools. (Just like the Grammar School in Chesterfield that I attended.)

o Although 23% of Muslims support the introduction of Sharia Law nearly twice as many are opposed to such introduction. (BTW if you don't know what Sharia Law is, here's an introduction https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharia )

o Just like me, an amazing 88% of Muslims reckon that the UK is a good place to live.

o I just loved the questions about "How do you feel about other religions?" and thought to myself "Go to certain places within the UK and ask the non-Muslim population what they think about other Christian sects and see what happens. Especially certain areas of Glasgow!"

o Another question that caught my eye was "What do you think is the percentage of Christians in the UK?" The Muslims thought 63% of the population of the UK are Christians. The ones that think that are listening to the chest beating idiots who profess their Christianity rather than live it. I suggest that anyone who thinks 63% of the UK population is Christian should attend their local church on a cold, wet Sunday morning to find out how many there are!

o The phenomena of Islamic State was supported in its efforts by 7% of Muslims but opposed by nearly TEN times as many at 67%.

o I have to refer you to Page 332 of the first set of questions. There is an absolutely classic response to tackling the causes of violent extremism.

o I was delighted to see that:
- 87% are not sympathetic to violence.
- 96% are not sympathetic to extremism.
- 83% condemn those who commit terrorist acts.
- 85% condemn suicide bombing to fight injustice.

I now refer you to the plot of a film titled "The Silver Fleet" and ask you to read the last line description of "The Plot".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Silver_Fleet

The hero WAS NOT a Muslim ...

... but he WAS a suicide bomber!

Well, it must be wonderful to live in your rose tinted world.
Personally, I tend towards the view that the world would have been a better place without 800 years of tyrannical horror in India that left at least 80 million dead, just as the world would have been a better place without the horrors that the Christian church imposed on Europe between the fall of the Roman empire and he renascence.
And I certainly don't look forward to Europe plunging back into another religious black hole.

I was going to sit this one out but heres a video and some stats with the links to check. I will now assume this thread will be locked/deleted.

http://english.dohainstitute.org/content/6a355a64-5237-4d7a-b957-87f6b1ceba9b
Although not a formal poll, the fact that more British Muslims were fighting for ISIS than serving in British armed forces, is probably more disturbing and insightful than a study of expressed opinion. While the number of Muslims serving in the British armed forces in 2016 was a little over 550 (thanks to targeted recruitment efforts), studies show that the number of British Muslims traveling to ISIS was at least 700-760 (probably much higher, about 850). The UK has arrested hundreds of others who were in the act of trying to join. There are no such barriers to Muslims serving in the armed forces, of course, yet few choose to do this, despite the public line that "terrorists aren't Muslim". Clearly, most British Muslims do not really believe that ISIS is a group of heretics killing true Muslims.

You are wasting your time, not only because you can't post videos but because people don't want to hear that Islam is indistinguishable from Nazism.
Persecution of Jews, hatred of homosexuals, authoritarian rule, death for those who openly oppose the regime and of course holocausts - the worst holocaust in human history was the Islamic invasion of India which had a death toll in excess of 80 million.
The only real differences are that:
Hitler never killed anybody whereas Mohammed personally killed thousands including more than 600 members of a force that had surrendered to avoid a battle.
Hitler wasn't a wife beater but Mohammed was.
Hitler wasn't a slave owner but Mohammed was.
Hitler wasn't a paedophile but Mohammed was.
Muslims haven't successfully invaded Poland - the Poles are having none of it.

God bless the Polish, I hope they can stand up against the EU and it's demands.

The Poles have of course taken in hundreds of thousands of refugees from the conflict in Ukraine, a fact that is barely recognised by the EU. They simply want nothing to do with the endless stream of culturally incompatible and economically useless (more than 80% are illiterate in their own language) economic migrants flooding Europe from Africa and the Middle East. In doing so, they have of course avoided the "cultural enrichment" seen in Cologne, Manchester and Barcelona. Best of luck to them and it's good to see the Hungarians and the Czechs standing right alongside them.

How about this for an example.

Earlier in this Thread the country of Lebanon was described as "an Islamist hellhole" ...

... but today, the Interior Minister of Lebanon announced that they had intercepted and stopped a terrorist bomb on a flight to Australis with 400 people onboard.

So is the country of Lebanon really an "Islamist hellhole" or is it just another misrepresented Islamic country with a working government that has an Interior Ministry active in the discovery and prevention of terrorism?

I actually live in THIS world.

It is far from "rose tinted" but rather than dredge up something that happened nearly a thousand years ago I refer to incidents that have happened within living memory and in some cases today!
