EgyptAir takes a header. Religion of peace suspected.

An EgyptAir flight from Paris to Cairo is more likely to have been brought down by a "terror attack" than a technical fault, Egyptian Civil Aviation Minister Sherif Fathy has said.

Definition: Religion

1. “a set of beliefs and practices related to the issue of what exists beyond the visible world, generally including the idea of the existence of a being, group of beings, an external principle or a transcendent spiritual entity” (Adapted from Random House Dictionary of the English Language, 1967).

2. “set of beliefs, practices, and language that characterizes a community that is searching for transcendent meaning in a particular way, generally based upon belief in a deity” (Astrow et al. 2001).

3. religious beliefs – “formed within the context of practices and rituals shared by a group to provide a framework for connectedness to God” (Davies, Brenner, Orloff, Sumner, and Worden 2002).

4. “an organized system of practices and beliefs in which people engage … a platform for the expression of spirituality…” (Mohr 2006).

5. “outward practice of a spiritual system of beliefs, values, codes of conduct, and rituals” (Speck 1998).
What the west defines as terrorism, they define as holy war which is a integral part of their religion and according to these disciples who wage holy war the foundation of their beliefs are rooted in the Quran, Hadith and their religious leaders. I'd bet big dollars that if they did not 'believe' they were doing their allah service and would see paradise for their diabolical works I doubt they would have driven that aircraft into the sea.

The weakness of the west is responsible for all bad things on this world.
What is responsible for the weakness of the West?
The relative strongness of the East, South and North?

Its probably not wise to mistake ones reasonable expectation of civility as a weakness. There are though very evil people in this world who would take advantage of that and prey upon them.

No, but that everything keeps running in cycles - so does history. Societies, cultures, civilizations grow strong, blossom, climax, and then fall and degrade with growing age. Nothing lasts forever. Some last longer, some not - but forever nobody and nothing lasts.

We are old, and our minds got paralysed and deceived by an unprecedented periods of military peace in our home countries, and or ways of running our businesses as well as demographic aging plot our course for growing European unimportance. Our toothlessness does its part, too.

A light shining twice as bright shines only half as long. And we really wasted our intellectual resources in illusions and wishful daydreams. European civilization once was a leading light in the world, influencing all corners of the world, mostly for the better, and more dramatic in effects than any other civilization before ever did. Today - we are rotting meat.

Over 50% of the German citizens allowed to go voting, are over 50 - by trend this group is growing both in mean age and numerical size. Go figure what that meand for the foci of politicians when they want to get re-elected.

Cultures and civilizations are also about biological vitality. Ours face the end of its lifespan.

Default some good news for a change

ISIS has become a terror onto itself apparently: http://www.foxnews.com/world/2016/06/06/isis-kills-dozens-its-own-in-hunt-for-spies.html
Quote:
the group would kill 38 of its own members on suspicion of acting as informants.
They were among dozens of ISIS members killed by their own leadership in recent months in a vicious purge after a string of airstrikes killed prominent figures. Others have disappeared into prisons and still more have fled, fearing they could be next as the jihadi group turns on itself in the hunt for moles,
In short ISIS is killing its own on speculation...so much for new recruits!
