I completely agree, old friend.

They have no idea what peace is, and could care less about peace. They're only doing what they're told to do.... to take over the world in the name of Islam.

I say it's time to clean house.

Nice to see you checking in every once in a while Todd! :salute:

I for one see this more of a closet xenophobe coming-out thread. At least it's good to see some honesty and expand the ignore list :D

Ahoy Todd!:up:

I don't think it's trying to be politically correct.
It's a great bandwith saver if any non-islamic terror attacks occur.

I did ask Neal to close this thread and start a new one up with a more Islamic focused base but he refused, and since topic starters can't rename their own threads you're all stuck with it I'm afraid.

I guess it might be worth noting that I started this thread yesterday morning, before all the **** went down in Paris but I don't think anyone will really care about that, if there's a chance to call me and the topic title PC then I guess that's all that matters. :yeah:

"The all purpose terrorism thread."

A newer, deeper low has been found.

No matter your timing, Oberon, your intention was the same: to ridicule those pointing out that Islamic scripture and Muhammad's deeds are what motivates Islamic terror attacks, and to minimise the role of Islam in the scope of global terrorism. Underhanded cynism at its best.

Right, Skybird.

The worst thing ever has finally happened and it's a THREAD TITLE.

Log off. Sign out.

Place was nicer without you.

You just can't help inventing motives, can you?

Just keep it shut.

Cool heads everyone if you'd all be so kind.

Well jimbuna I'd like to but it's a long standing habit of Skybird's to use tragic events to poke people he doesn't like and invent motivations for others on this forum.

I've no intention of dropping myself in the brig again but I've even less inclination towards letting despicable posts just float by.

I've made the only appeal I'll be making on the matter. Leave the moderation to Neal and I because should anything necessitate remedial action, it will most probably be one of us who will carry it out.

That's why jim gets the big money. :shifty: :)

Not to sound sarcastic, or insensitive. But are French security forces and intel gurus overwhelmed? Or are these so called no-go areas so isolated from the rest of French society. There is no way to penetrate and develop any good intel on the players and potential threats of massive coordinated attacks with automatic weapons and hand grenades?

Is it a possible reason why it hasnt this happenend in other European countries or the U.S.? Or is it just a matter of time before it does?

I suspect just a matter of time.

There's absolutely no way we can know that. We don't know all of what was stopped.

Obviously there were plotters arrested in Verviers recently with weapons and explosives. That could have been an event like yesterday - we don't know.

The "no-go" myth running around again. France has deep problems with assimilation and alienation, but the old story of hundreds of places where police fear to tread just isn't true.

Certainly it can't be easy for the French security services.

It has happened. In London, in Madrid, in Turkey just a month ago.

How quickly we forget.

Not overwhelmed, it's that the terror tactics have changed from large bombs going off and it's easy to get the authorities alerted to it when one buys a barrel of ammonium nitrate and owns no fields, now they're focusing on mass shootings and grenades, which can be aquired slowly, maybe one piece at a time or smugled component by component into the country.

And as Tchocky said, for this one attack maybe 10 were stopped, maybe this attack was planned for a later time in bigger extent but the intel was too close to busting them.

Ugh. I just woke up to the nice news out of Paris. Be strong France.
