    Go join up with the Kurds, they will take you, or join any of these countries that are fighting ISIS who will take you.

    I just might.

    Like the wild geese in the past. We need to fight for generations yet unborn so they will not live under Sharia.

    An Irish legion should be formed with men from every parish and county and province in platoons companies and battalions. They should be armed and trained and go over there to help in anyway they can.

    For anyone who thinks ISIS members are Muslims :

    ISIS bombed many countries including Muslim countries during the holy month of Ramadan. If you still think ISIS are Muslims you need to delete your life.

    You are aware that the majority religion of the Kurds is Islam.

    So are you part of the deport all Muslims brigade as well then Sand?

    Note: See this is the standard response. You go against the progressive grain you are automatically on the blackfoot because of course we hate all muslims and want to deport all of them course. Sure all Muslims are terrorists even though no one ever said that. :(


    Sigh...
    Every single time words are put into our mouths and its impossible to have a discussion without being accused as some BNP white supremacist fanatic.

    How many terror campaigns have been going on in the last 20 years? Apparently the answer to your question (now I'm looking it up) is one truck, four vans. (UK, Norway, Spain x2). The number goes up if you go back further.

    In any case, that the few terrorist incidents going on in the EU in the last two decades haven't normally involved bombs in cargo vehicles in no way means that they are not common elsewhere, or that folks aren't considering it, or that the police aren't keeping an eye out for that sort of thing. Certainly if I were the police, I'd be thinking about it.

    Yes, that's what I was saying, getting over a ton of explosives in Europe is incredibly difficult. There's been hundred if not thousands caught trying to do it and locked up. It slips through incredibly rarely. Driving a truck into people is something that intelligence can't really stop.

    No I realise that the threat from these fanatics is real but reading a lot of comments here at the moment and from the past a significant number cannot seem to separate the fanatics from the majority of people who are trying to live their lives peacefully with their families.

    I am well aware of that. The enemy is radical extremist Islam. Muslims are already fighting and dying to defeat radical Islam in case you haven't noticed.

    It's seems to have gotten to the stage where France can expect at least one or two of these attacks a year.

    Actually lot of Kurds are abandoning Islam altogether and going back to Zoroastrianism. Basically the Kurds adopted Islam in the first place because they didn't want to be murdered and raped into extinction.

    In a world without borders the days where the west could fcuk up a region and not worry about it are over.

    I've no idea how to deal with radical Islam. I think it's going to take a lot of time.

    But people here need to cop on and realise that this is not about Islam.

    If the world had treated South America in the same manner for the last 100 years, it's guaranteed we'd all be talking about radical Catholicism.

    It's not even that hard to understand.

    They are Muslims. Just because the KKK targeted another Christian group it didn't stop them being Christians. Islam is split into many groups, some dangerous (ISIS) some not dangerous (those guys that begin with A, cant remember the full name).

    Plenty of info out there if you look.
    Zoroastrians today are present in several areas of Iraqi Kurdistan and other areas administratively affiliated with the Iraqi federal government. But there are no accurate figures of their numbers as they are still referred to as "Muslims” on their identity documents, even though they engage in Zoroastrian religious rituals. This represents a restriction on their right to freedom of belief, especially since converting from Islam to another religion is considered a crime according to the Personal Status Law.
    At the Zoroastrian Cultural and Heritage Center in Sulaimaniyah — which contains a small temple where Zoroastrian rituals are being held for the first time in modern Iraqi history — Peer Luqman Haji, the spiritual leader of Iraqi Zoroastrians, administers the conversion from Islam to Zoroastrianism through the Kushti tying ceremony (a Kushti is the sacred girdle worn by Zoroastrians around their waists) and marriage ceremonies according to the Zoroastrian tradition.

    I just might is a bit different from "I will fight" and all this we bull****, if you feel strongly enough about this then get off your ass and go and do something about it.

    We need to find a solution to this alright, but we don't need to go ahead and lose our humanity to do it.

    Extremism of any form is destructive, fundamentalism of any form is dangerous, segregation is not the answer. You think all they want to do is kill non muslims, conquer, instill Sharia law everywhere, grand. Sending them all off to their own countries together, closing borders and ensuring total segregation (not possible anyway obviously) doesn't seem very bright to me in that case.

    They get to plot and develop weapons, weapons that they do not need to be in your country to do you harm with.

    A missile from North Africa carrying Nuclear material can hit Ireland no problem, don't need any Muslims in the country to make that happen, send them off to grow their military unhindered and get an air force, a naval force to attack their enemies with, how big of a wall you think you need to build to protect yourself really?

    Education, integration and the nominal Muslim population, together with the moderate, progressive Muslim population are all crucial factors to ending this Global Jihad, there is certainly one in progress, has been for many, many years now and with better weapons, better technologies, further division will not be a solution.

    Either bite the bullet and abandon the moral compass altogether, shed the remnants of humanity that remain and turn the Middle East into a depopulated, flattened, car park. Wiping Saudi off the map for starters, or forget the thought that building barriers between Muslims and everybody else is the way to go.

    Total annihilation of Muslims doesn't seem plausible though, and whatever is left will certainly be radical as ****, though might buy us a few years without attack while they get to a place where they have rebuilt sufficiently to begin attacks again.

    Sorry for the rant.

    Ever read the Bible? Funnily enough it says the same things - it also says that slavery is okay, that it's alright to murder anyone that has an affair and that anyone who dishonours their parents should be killed.
