    The vast majority of religions are liberalising. There is one that is regressing. It has radically regressed in so many countries in the world and it's supremacist nature is taking hold closer to home every single day. This is the great war of our time.

    Radical Islam is our enemy. People who practice it are our enemy. People who defend and apologise for it are our enemy.

    :confused:

    You know what makes me absolutely sick and that's the videos on sky news etc.. of the aftermath of the attack. I know people are in shock but there they are walking past dead bodies of men, women and children and they are more interested with getting their mobile phone out and filming it than you know helping the injured or throwing a jacket, blanket, t-shirt etc.. over the bodies of the dead to give them some dignity.

    Killing non believers does...spreading Islam by the sword does...No need for me to spell it out,you know quite well how Islam gains supremacy.

    What you are saying is untrue and you know it.

    Islam does not encourage killing non-believers.

    Have you every been to an Islamic country?

    **** me... Charlottsville, the attack you claimed no one is talking about because it wasn't committed by a Muslim, but that isn't true and you know it, but who needs the truth when you've an agenda to push... usual suspects indeed.

    You're like a ninja arriving to every Radical Islamic terror attack and like a ghost to any far-right-terror attack.

    Strawmen responses won't change the fact you're part of the blame for what happened in Charlottesville. Only being outraged when tiny fractions of Islam commit terror and not outraged at other terror only succeeds in solidifying the "us v them" narrative, where "them" are the brown people.

    Doesn't surprise me most of you guys seem to be into video games, anime, memes, etc.

    So instead of condemning this horrific attack, you've gone into the post history of several posters whom you've disagreed with in the past, checked that they didn't comment on the charlottsville thread to somehow equate their silence as approval... Did it not once occur in that little mind of yours that said posters did in fact read the charlotsville thread, however unlike yourself they had no great urge to increase their post count by contributing the same tired ad hominems you like to partake in?

    You've included me in your list of "usual suspects", let me just say, though I see no great need to defend myself against such a pathetic and baseless attack, I am by no means part of the far right, and will accept no blame whatsoever for any right wing attack... such an extraordinarily disgusting accusation.

    Yes, the catholic church has been very liberalising in Ireland.

    Anti-woman.
    Anti-contraception
    Anti-divorce
    Anti-abortion
    Anti- sexual eduction

    Protectors of child rapists.

    Great lads altogether.

    This is partly due to almost completely open borders on the continent.

    Maybe if the neo-nazi's start killing people by the dozen in Europe every couple of months you might get the equality of outrage you are looking for.

    Besides the point...that terrorist attack in the US was after a protest and counter protest where you have to admit tensions were high...whereas all these Islamic terrorist attacks are targeting civilians going about their daily lives with no beef against anybody else...Just my thoughts on why the reaction to both attacks are different

    apart from the exact circumstances of each attack, the terrorist attack in the US was no different to what happened today, it was a terrorist attack. it doesn't matter that the terrorist attack in the US happened after a protest and that "tensions were high" . the bit of vermin who drove his car into people is the same as the islamic extremists who drove cars into people. there was no justification for it.

    These attacks will continue until the ordinary citizens start DEMANDING a response from their elected officials that isn't just meaningless soundbites. Borders need to be controlled, and illegal migrants sent back where they came from - not chauffeured by navies and landed in countries that are wholly incompatible with their ideologies.

    As I have said plenty of times before on this forum, there are any number of ways by which non-Europeans can enter the EU legitimately, and these people should only be allowed access if they successfully pass those checks/requirements. It is not our job to accept thousands of these migrants just because they want a better life - no matter what people like Zappone and Fitzgerald may think

    Immigration should be a key issue for the next election in this country, and people should be sure to ask the FF/FG/SF/whatever politicians who turn up at the door what their and their party's stance is on it, because make no mistake folks, what we're seeing in Spain and France and the UK (and elsewhere) WILL happen here sooner or later unless we start taking steps to not only prepare for it, but limit our potential exposure as much as we can.

    immigration is controled and those who come illegally are sent back if their case is not approved.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    Yes..Morocco,Algeria,Tunisia,Turkey,Egypt..stopover in Qatar but we wont count that,not sure what it matters though.

    I wish it was possible for the police to avoid killing the perpetrators of these attacks. The prospect of life in prison might be a bit less attractive than suicide-by-cop, followed by 72 virgins (which seems like a low figure, considering you're supposed to be in paradise for eternity).

    Agree totally,the circumstances of the attack do have an affect on the outrage though.
    Today was totally unexpected,the US one,you could kinda see coming(because of said tensions since trump was elected)

    No justification for either.

    I think the appropriate action from the Muslim community is to deny these murderers the ceremony and funeral that they want. They should be immediately declared as non-Muslim and this would perhaps provide a little deterrent.

    Yes, 18k+ posts over 10 years and I'm a troll.

    It's a called a discussion.

    Thing is that people here just have an agenda and just argue without making any valid points.

    These guys above actually don't get it, the problem in this country is so utterly dysfunctional. At least in the UK they had a national conversation on EU membership and they decided that seeing as they had lost all control of migration into the country, that they would be better off outside the EU and taking back control of their own borders.

    Back here on Craggy Island, we aren't even allowed to begin a conversation on the same subject, because our entire political class is completely and irrevocably wedded to the EU project and the idealogy that is the free movement of people anywhere in the EU. Any attempt at all to begin a conversation on migration into this country, gets shouted down from the very outset, those wishing to speak about this get labelled as "fascist, racist, intolerant, ultra right, etc". The left in this country, Green Party leader Eamon Ryan and Labour TD who was kicked out of his constituency last time around, Aodhan O' Riordan, these guys have openly stood up in the Dail and told the whole country that we need to "embrace multiculturalism", no matter where people are coming from when they want to come into this country.

    Any person wanting my vote next time around had better have a solution for the numbers being let into this country, many not even from another EU country and I know LOADS of people who feel the exact same way as I do, they just don't talk about it because just like in the US, the left has smothered all conversation on alternative policies so people like me are saving their ire for the ballot box. Mark my word, a Nigel Farage type political candidate in this country with a strong campaigning crew would get between 5-10 seats in this country in the next election.

    Video going around of the dead and maimed on the ground. What sort of absolute scum bucket goes around with the phone out recording it. Filth.

    Isis have claimed responsibility apparently

    I saw on Reddit that one of the victims was only 3 years old. They didn't stand a chance, fcucking evil bastards

    Terrorist attack. Who did it not announced yet. There is two incidents, now reported.

    We're statistically speaking (in Europe) the safest we have been EVER. By every single metric we are living longer, terror attacks are at all-time lows, murder rates are low etc etc.

    Look at the bloody history of Europe and I mean that literally. The whole continent has been at war with itself for hundreds of years and we are now in arguably the most peaceful, stable period in European history and you people are making out it's like terrible.

    We have never had it better.

    Would be even better if these dickhead Muslims would stop carrying out terrorist attacks.

    Hey, if you hate the west so much why don't you **** off somewhere else and stop killing our people?

    Extremists are being left behind, they are regressing, be they Abrahamic, atheist, or just plain assholes.

    The 'war', as you put it, is with extremists, and you're no friend of mine.

    Agreed but they know ghoulish people love to watch them and they get some "likes" too.

    72 virgins is a mistranslation, it's actually 72 raisins :pac:

    That would explain the increasing number of attacks in Europe over the past 3 years.

    Thanks for clearing everything up.

    1. Close the borders to illegal immigrants
    2. Strip the citizenship of those convicted of terrorist attacks
    3. No more moqsues
    4. Very heavy sentences for those involved in terrorism

    When the IRA were bombing the UK in the 80s should these rules have been applied to the Roman Catholic Irish?

    For arguments sake, brother sees 10 year old sister mown down on television. Understandably devastated. Some time passes as he tries to comprehend the continuation of said madness, unchecked, uncontrolled, unreactive.

    Brother: "I just don't understand how this can keep happening, I just lost my sister to this continued terrorism. Surely something can be done to prevent the pain I have suffered having to fall on others over and over again!"

    Random ****ing Prick taps Brother on shoulder: "But did you know that more people died while grocery shopping in 1988? Seriously, you've never had it better, never been safer! You should be thankful!"

    This "sentiment" is the biggest CROCK OF SH*T, peddled by pathetic enablers as they struggle to defend imported terrorism.

    Once AGAIN (AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN), condolences to the completely needless loss of life in Barcelona. Yet ANOTHER bunch of people and children who will never see their families again, never experience any of the nice things they might have experienced in life...........and for what? So some *****bag somewhere gets to have an overpriced latte in some artisan ponce-u-like cafe with his liberal mates and have all the "feels". Whoopdee ****ing doo, what a bargain of a deal!

    People like Tommy Robinson must be sick and tired of repeating the same truths over and over and people and politicians keep pandering to these scumbags jihadi pricks breeding in radicalised mosques who kill innocent adults and children at will
    Europe is infested with it. Wake up
