London Bridge Incident

Calling you out on nonsensical views doesn't equal me having the answers, you're entitled to voice your opinion but members are also entitled to call you out on it.
That's fine, and the point of this forum. I was asking for his answer, since he suggested that I was uneducated for giving my view....
 
But's thats how the families of those that have been mowed down feel. They relatives were just going about their lives, and got killed for no reason at all. Again them or us......

Yeah, but then you end up like the West Bank.

Someone blows someone up because they were upset, the other side retaliates with an army and airplanes, The next person gets upset and blows themselves up, then theres retaliation.

Nobody ever wants to talk, nobody ever wants to give in, it goes on and on and on, back and forth.
 
But that's more of the same - we already do this, if someone is 'warped' and wants to blow themselves up - they get locked up, where it's possible to detect and intervene.

We can continue arming more police, having more terror threats, having more *stuff* in order to detect and react to this sort of problem, round everybody up - throw them into internment camps, deport them to their country of origin, Guantanamo bay 2, army on the streets, vehicle barriers on every bridge, a giant portcullis over Dover, license to use a VPN, etc, etc, etc, etc,

But I'm pretty sure, none of the above will solve the root cause, you'll still have an alienated, isolated 'us and them' mentality, and probably just the same if not more, terrorist attacks.

I honestly believe, no matter how uncomfortable it feels - we need to address the Elephant in the room, which is the endless saturation coverage of Islamic terrorism and ISIS, it generates a lot of pressure on the Islamic community, it helps nobody in any way at all - most of all, it allows ISIS's message to be communicated to everybody, surely this is only going to make the problem worse?

Complete apologist sentiment. Please stop trying to apportion blame on us. Britain is a predominanty Christian country, we are some of the most tolerant people on the planet, if people have a problem with that it is 100% their issue.

We should not and will not sit down and negotiate with people who deliberately set out to decapitate, burn alive and bomb innocents
 
Interesting that the DM (and I hate to cite DM as a source) are now reporting that one of the attackers is featured in this documentary which aired on C4 last year.

And he was reported on two separate occasions.

If there are too many to monitor on the watchlist, why not subject them to home detention 24/7?

Ok, so how would you effectively go about trying to solve the problem, without causing a bigger problem in the process?

You're assuming these people actually care about their families, all evidence I've seen shows they become estranged from their families and off they go, These people have issues before they turn.

They honestly believe they are doing this **** in the name of their God, and God is greater than all. Locking up their families isn't really going to stop that, it's going to make matters worse.

I understand your point. My motivation however is not so we can get revenge, it is so we stop it happening.

No it isn't, stop saying it is. Britain is predominately secular or irreligious, ridiculous census results notwithstanding.

Uhh, no, atheism or lack of religion is predominantly what describes the UK today.

It wont be long before its the absolute majority either, the 1950s are over bruh.
 
Not sure about that, waiting for police confirmation. After Manchester lots of people said they'd reported the loser to the police for extremism, but that all turned out to be a load of taqqiya - turns out the only thing the police knew him for was low-level street crime.

You are utterly full of it. Most of these idiots have been shopped by Muslims who knew them due to there behaviour, they've been kicked out of there local mosques.

As for taqiyyah this is limited to when Muslims lives are under threat and they can say they're not Muslims and will not be punished for it even though it says it is preferable to die.

The extremists are very clear and honest about there views, they don't hide anything. They think it halal to kill non Muslims and wage war anywhere against all non Muslims.

It is not something they hide.
 
Are the mosques reporting this wholesale or not?

Its kinda pointless kicking someone out of a mosque for being too extreme and then not reporting them for it, a lot of right-wing nutters will look at that as complicity.

I believe they are supposed to as a lot of them have been contacted by police.

If all do, who knows?

But I have heard on more then one occasion where mosque teachers or worshippers have been reported for there views.

Now, I know we don't know what happens after that. But someone told me once they reported a mosque teacher for inciting kids to go to Syria.

He said a month later the guy was still there, so he changed his kids mosque.

That is unacceptable. They might have took action later but a full month of him brainwashing students...
 
Are your seriously advocating the detention of family members, even though they have done nothing wrong and broken no law? So, much like North Korea where family members are punished due to the actions of individuals.
Jees, I don't want to live in your country.

Suppose your own son fell off the wagon a bit and started harbouring extreme right-wing views. You would be happy to be detained because of that?

I'm really starting to become quite frightened by some of the views people are expressing. The curtailing of civil liberties without trial, imprisonment by association, and deportation without cause are a very slippery slope.

Except that we've done that in the past when our national security was at stake. During WWII foreign nationals were interned without trial for the duration, the media and press relentlessly pumped out government approved propaganda and dissent was suppressed.

To those opposed to more radical measures how many more innocents have to die because we don't want to risk offending a few people? One attack? Two? Three? A dozen? Because sooner or later peoples patience will break.

Why dont you actually address the relevant points, we are a culture based on Christian values even if most of us dont go to church every Sunday and a lot of us, including myself, dont even believe in God

We're not at war. Not in any meaningful sense of the word.

Why mention it if by your own admission it's not relevant? You are clearly intending for it to bolster your argument.

thats the big question - if we get to 10/20 attacks then i could see the government (any government) taking pretty extreme measures.

one thing i think they should do is make hate peaching and overt support of isis illegal.
Germany has laws making the denial of the holocaust illegal and they fit fine with freedom of speech.

Maybe not by definition. But in general I strongly disagree. A select group are committing barbaric, public murders on what is now a regular occurrence over the world. It isn’t one loon that got a bit angry, it’s specific group with an MO to take over the world and get everyone to believe in what they do – this has been stated by the top members of the group.

If this doesn’t warrant us and other countries taking war level actions to stop this, then its an insult to the public and particulary those that have already been harmed.

So who do we fight? Who do we attack? Where? When? How? This is the most guerilla of guerilla warfare. The combatants are unidentifiable.

This needs to change imo. Imagine what a kick in the teeth to the Islamic State it would be if every church up and down the land was full next Sunday.
