Paris attacks.

Freedom of speech is just fine, religious hatred, generalizations and general stupidity is tiring !

is it just generalisations when a magic sky pixie is involved - I mean if people were to criticise Tories for example would you get all butt hurt and point out that there are millions of Tories in the UK?

 

[qqg3]

I hate to jinx it, but how come we haven't had something like this yet? Are our security and intelligence forces too good?

It is a little harder to get the 'equipment' because of our island location. Just a matter of time I fear...

For those that thinks Islam is a terrorising religion or what no, I'd like to know what your views are on that school attack on Peshawar last year.

Not really the thread for it.

Hundreds of thousands of migrants arriving from Syria, Afghanistan, Northern Africa states etc. We have absolutely no idea who these people are. No idea how many potential ISIS agents are among them and with a great big invitation from Merkel.

We are very lucky to be an Island with the potential to completely lock down the borders.

Yea we should close the borders

 

[scorza]

Religion isn't the problem here, a significant minority of one religion is the problem and needs dealing with. We won't deal with it by erasing and not understanding our own culture and history.

 

[AndrewNR]

Because 80% of the world's people have nothing and won't ever have anything. Maybe religion is all that gives them hope

Or at least an excuse.

^^^^This was my fear from the beginning.

This

Things will only get worse, especially with what is going on in Syria and with the ME in general. However at local level Muslims who have no link with terrorism are being targeted too therefore this may make them retaliate.

It's a sad state of affairs with what is happening to the World.

 

[platypus]

Terrible news, lets hope the death toll doesn't get much higher .

France is a gutter country now thanks to immigration.

Yes, you're well positioned to make this judgement.

I never thought I'd read you being so moderate.

Being an island helps, easier to get into France. For those people saying 'only a matter of time', I actually have more faith in our intelligence services than them. Rip to all the fallen tonight.

 

[Felon]

holy crap, been chilling out all evening and playing fo4, turn the news on and things are seriously messed up

RIP to all involved, and best of luck to the French authorities in sorting it all out..

Britain is on an Island, makes it more difficult. Channel Tunnel should be closed. I said that several years ago but is it too little too late?

Retaliate for their own safety, not on behalf of the terrorists.

it only takes one nutter... i think its impossible to prevent all attacks

What exactly do you think closing the Channel Tunnel would achieve?

 

[TwsT]

confirmed special forces are raiding the Bataclan at this moment

it really shouldn't be confirmed, I mean in this day and age confirming police movements is pretty retarded.

OFc this isn't aimed at you but your source has got it from somewhere.

Strange how 'Islamic terrorism' wasn't a big thing until quite recently. Strange also how early Muslims didn't randomly attack civilians in other nations. Even more strange to think that colonialism might have affected the Muslim mindset over generations.

But hey, it's cool to simplify everything and make the blame game easy

Are you serious? Islam invaded Europe through Spain and the Balkans, ruling over the likes of Greece and Spain for centuries. Islam has been our enemy every since it emerged out of the Arabic peninsula. It is by far the most violent religion: it's prophet was a warlord who beheaded war captives for pete's sake. Jesus meanwhile died on a cross preaching 'turn the other cheek'.

The only reason Islam was so quiet in the 19th and 20th century is because we were so dominant.
