    He was killed. Hardly getting off easy.

    He died a martyr to his cause. This exactly the kind of thing the brain-washers will use to their advantage when they're recruiting other young Muslims to their cause.

    Ideally they could have captured him and broken him for more information.

    Mods. Can we have a rolling Islamic terror attack and arrest thread.

    Daily additions at this stage

    Think you have the right idea.

    It's my dream to retire to an Irish offshore island.


    Yeah mine too, Sherkin Island in particular .... little gem.

    Or maybe they should atone by sending everyone back? I mean, if innocent European children are to pay with their innocent lives for the colonial past, then maybe it's not such a bad idea, right?

    All organised religions are based on nonsense and they all brainwash people from a young age. All organised religions hamper human progress.

    Thankfully they will soon be extinct. Hopefully.

    Science brought us the flight of the airplane, religion flew the planes into buildings.

    Exactly, it's too late for the French that's why Ireland must not make the same mistakes. We need to stop this madness and follow the Hungarian or Japanese models more closely.

    Of course not. I was just pointing out how ridiculous it is to justify their actions using the colonial past. They should not blame France and the French for what has been done to their countries, first because it's not their countries - they are French citizens, and second, they got to live a better life than there.

    Resenting the west and the western way of life while living in the west is just stupid - this has to be said more often.

    Absolutely. It's seldom you hear of Jehovah's Witnesses going on a murder spree though, or Mormons.

    They have their own issues though don't they?

    Correct, they tend not to turn their major psychological problems into violence.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭Dannyriver

    Correct the same as the vast majority of the 1.5 billion muslims in the world.

    Yes, the Middle East where a lot of muslims live has been relatively stable over the past 1000 years. :rolleyes:

    the Japanese model is changing, they are beginning to bring in immigrants. hungary will eventually do the same i'd imagine, down the line.

    ticking a box on a form does not make you of a religion.

    Well child abuse is a form of violence. What I think you mean is they don't generally target victims outside their own group.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral

    I'd wager most groups do. However, I don't remember any of them going on a murderous spree in a packed market myself.

    No, there issues are different. Not sure you could class one as worse than the other though.

    You re wrong there it's actually been in turmoil due to western interference.

    I personally would class the murder of scores of innocent people in the name of some god to be fundamentally as bad as it gets. If there are cases of child abuse by Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses, that's obviously vile. One thing I would say is that one is definitely and undeniably linked to religion. Allah akbar is the all too common religious war cry we hear being bellowed before yet another atrocity. Are sickos abusing children doing it in their lord or their prophet's name, thinking nirvana awaits them? Or are they doing it because they're twisted fcuks?

    What about fact France took in Algerians and fellow muslims from the Maghreb.
    They gave them work, gave them a very good standard of free healthcare and free education for their children.

    Oh did they? I didn t know that...Its grand so, they atoned for invading an entire country. Imagine helping some muslims, saints the lot of them. And apparently they helped those fellow muslims entirely out of sheer kindness and good heartedness, didn t even need them to fill vacancys in france. Just sheer and utter colonial kindness.

    And what the feck were they doing in the likes of Agleria before the French arrived.
    Oh wait they were under Ottoman rule at one stage.
    Shure that was lovely.

    Listening to some one would think all of the places colonised were peaceful paradises before Europeans arrived.
    And no that is not excusing the cr** carried out by the colonisers, but some of the modern day liberal lefties of the opinion "all white Europeans are bad" would want to check a few facts first about history.

    One would fooking swear that every ill under the sun was invented by white people from Europe. :rolleyes:
    He was killed. Hardly getting off easy.

    Are you concerned and sorry for him?

    Do the female suicide bombers also get 72 virgins ?

    And why 72, isn't is a weird number to have?

    Ah yes another of the usual go to.s.
    Just like when some politician is found to be corrupt some resort to "aren't the all the same" as somehow to lessen the blame.

    How many religions are causing wholesale slaughters right around the world.
    Are Sikhs killing people in Europe or North America because they might have a barney with hindus in India?
    Are hindus slaughtering all around them because they are having problem with muslims in Kashmir?

    Oh wait there are fundamentalist christians in Uganda killing folks in Uganda and the Westboro baptist church are shouting and threatening gays and women having abortions, so I guess all religions are as bad as the so called "religion of peace." :rolleyes:

    Lets play the old game of naming a decent muslim majority country with secular rights and freedoms for all throughout the country and not just in one or two massive big cosmopolitan westernised cities.

    The abuse itself is not a religious issue. The way it is covered up is. For the good of the church. It's irrelevant really. You'll always get different interpretations of a religion. It will always be the sickos that commit the worst offences.

    What an odd question. Why would I be?

    Yes agreed. I meant external violence.

    As for Catholics, if they truly believe a man in a robe can turn bread into flesh and blood every Sunday, they can essentially believe anything. Those people do have psychological issues too. Organised religion has always been a slippery slope to power grabbing and violence. I look forward to the day that All organised religions are exposed for the shams they are.
    Islam is currently the most dangerous religion in the world today.

    The exact number it's the least weirdest thing about getting to fck a bunch of virgins in heaven, after you killed some innocents and you killed yourself for the glory of god.
