The head of MI5 has given a chilling assessment of the scale of the terror threat in the UK.
saying that it will last "a generation". In a rare public statement, Dame Eliza Manningham-Buller said that the security services are dealing with up to 30 plots designed to cause mass casualties. She also says MI5 agents and the police are tracking more than 1,600 suspects. Dame Eliza warned that weapons of mass destruction could be used in future attacks. She voiced concern that many of those involved were British citizens, radicalised by friends and by material on the internet. She said that some of the plots being tracked involved suicide bombers, and others were being directed by al Qaeda. She said: "Today we see the use of home-made improvised explosive devices, but I suggest tomorrow's threat will include the use of chemicals, bacteriological agents, radioactive materials and even nuclear technology." "If the opinion polls conducted in the UK since July are only broadly accurate, over 100,000 of our citizens consider that the July bomb attacks in London were justified," she added. "The threat is serious, is growing, and will, I believe, be with us for a generation. It is a sustained campaign, not a series of isolated incidents. It aims to wear down our will to resist." http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/...551586,00.html |

I'm sure there are extremists in any society, and there probably is some nutcase who wants to kill me for something or other but anyway. The times when I have flown into Tel Aviv, I've walked around the streets of that city and found it to be very safe city. Even traveling into East Jerusalem lacks any of the connitations you get from the media. Which begs a question. If all Muslims are bloodthursty animals looking to kill Jews or Christians... why is it that so many 67's (thats the local term for a Palestinian Muslim) living there have security passes that allow them to travel freely around Israel. Surely they are such a dangurous threat that they must be locked up and surrounded constantly by soldiers. Is it because maybe the Israeli government acknoweldges these people are human beings and that the majority of them have never committed a crime. The only other explanation is that the Israeli authorities are idiots... I don't believe that, anyone care to argue that point!? Quote:
For someone who started your post with a broadside claiming I was putting words into peoples mouths, your doing a good job of scoring your own goals. Since when did the forcible removal of religious icons and the playing down of religious festivals have anything to do with multiculturalism - surely thats monoculturalism on a orwellian scale. And for the record, the people I have heard calling for the abolition of Christmas tend to be Jehova's Witnesses and Puritains. Quote:

Oh thank you for saving me some time DAB, I was composing a long answer to TteFAboB and you answered better than I could. He made a wonderful personal attack when I named no one in my comments. In fact I just agreed with your posts. I mean WTF? I never named anyone in my posts, and also get accused of being an extremist.
Oh and how many muslims have posted threads mocking Christian places of worship as we have had here about mosques. Just an aside from a past thread. ![]() Seriously, what worries me is what these threads reflect societal attitudes more than having some kind of influence. So we have a choice between the crescent moon or a pair of hammers. Wonderful. ![]() |

Why should they bother posting here when they can openly insult and denigrate people in the mosque itself (Australia is a good recent example).

There's a sophist trick: read what isn't written, propose what wasn't called for, concluded what couldn't be concluded. You've mentioned something about working on politics, have you ever considered a political career? :p ![]() Quote:
Sure the majority of "these people" (Muslims, immigrants, etc.) never committed any crime, I don't think any government will dispute that. Nor did the majority of the members of the Nazi party, or the Communists, or the Fascists nor did their victims commit any real crime either. Yes, crime is an exception not the rule. These are or would like to, however, and Israel has become safer only because they are cracked upon: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20061110/...ity_britain_dc Quote:
But it puts things into perspective when we notice that the death toll of the three decade conflict between 1969 and 2001 (3,523) is 550 bodies more than what the Muslim terrorists killed in a single day of 2001 (2,973). What could they do in three decades then? Source is wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Troubles - down at the bottom, they took it from "Sutton Index of Deaths"; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9/11 - they took the numbers from various sources. We're not counting the attacks in Iraq where Iraqis are killing Iraqis (Shi'ite, Sunni, Kurd, other) nor the attacks in India or Indonesia or the terrorism in Sudan, Ethiopia, Turkey, Morocco, Algeria, Israel-Gaza-Syria-Lebanon. I don't know if the Irish statistic includes disrupted terror plots but even without them, and with all due respect to the victims of the conflict, Islamic terror casts a shadow over Northern Ireland.

FYI Yahoshua I'm here, as have been other Muslims and not once can I recall any such behaviour as described above by anyone who I know to be a Muslim on this forum.
You're jumping the post here, I didn't say that Individuals HERE were doing so, but that the Imams already have their pulpit to voice their opinion from. You certainly have some form of your own when it comes to insulting and denigrating people as evidenced by your comments towards the Democratic House Leader Nacy Pelosi as shown here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...=100637&page=2 Firstly that comment wasn't directed toward Muslims, but toward Pelosis' agenda and her attitude toward gun owners (me). So what's your point? Besides, I thought you were just on this thread "eating pop corn" and cheering on as you so often do. ![]() The *Eating Popcorn* is reference to a smiley from another forum, namely these: (Just figured out how to import it) ![]() ![]() ![]()
