Mass shooting on Bondi Beach

So it’s “virtually ceased” apart from the Islamic terrorist stabbing attack the occurred in our capital only a few months ago. Right.

I also didn’t say anything about immigration from Muslim countries nor did I say anything about the migration status of the killer yesterday.

I’ve explained several times. I grew up in NI in the 70s so I know the difference between targeted assassination where they’re trying to get YOU and just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. And I know what both feel like (because loyalists in the 70s attacked random catholics because they were catholic, but most bombs were aimed at the security forces.) The former was a bit like being Jewish these days I guess except that there were enough of us to have relatively safe area to live in.

What we (mostly) didn’t have were attacks that deliberately tried to maximise civilian deaths so as to make normal life impossible. That’s what I’m referring to.

No idea what you’re trying to prove here but you seem to want to project something else so off you go.

I do believe it, to reman quiet is to remain complacent. The Irish distant ourselves from the IRA, Jews need to speak up against the atrocities been committed in their name, likewise other groups need to to the same.

Irish people kill people outside of Ireland. they also rape them, should Irish people not be allowed travel?

Man found guilty of murder of Irish woman in Spain

Dublin firefighter found guilty of raping woman in Boston hotel room – The Irish Times

we also kill foreign people in Ireland

Inquest told how garda shot Jastine Valdez's killer

if those countries decided there was excessive threat from Irish people and wished to ban them then that is their right.

Those are actions of individual scumbags without an over arching ideology or motive behind them, which is different from the attack in Bondi and various other attacks across the world by Islamic nuts.

Fact is the Islamic ideology/religion has in no way been beneficial to the west so why does it need to be imported here.

Try me. What’s the solution that will allow Israel to exist in peace with its neighbours?

And that wouldn’t prevent ISIS or Al Qaeda or Boko Haram etc etc anyway.

So please. Do tell us what the answer is.

Risk of terrorism to the general public in Europe is very, very small, whether from Islamists or anyone else.

Even our far right racist friends have been banging on for the last few years about immigrants from Muslim countries being potential sex offenders or criminals, not terrorists.

Oh no the good old "muslim terrorists kill only a few europeans" trope again being used as argument.

I presume you're taking that latter number out of your proverbial, but in any case it still demonstrates your ignorance of how terrorists and guerilla warfare works: there has to be a much bigger "pond" of people who tolerate the extremist "fish" for them to survive. For every one who actually acts, there are dozens who are complicit to some degree.

Again I'm going to compare it to NI: we all "knew" stuff that nobody went to the police about. As a teenager I knew guys who were in the INLA or the IRA - that was just how it was. "The dogs in the street knew" as they said. And "Whatever you say, say nothing" - all that. It would never have occurred to me to inform on them. Not even when abuse that was not political at all happened, such as one guy I knew, not in the IRA himself but reputed to be "connected" got someone else kneecapped for "stealing" his girlfriend. We all thought it was disgusting but nobody complained because it's all kept "inhouse".

And I would put money on the fact of Muslim communities being more closed to outsiders again.

Is your reading comprehension really that bad? Where did I mention prevent preventing ISUS, Al Queda or Boko Haram?

I asked a really simple question to a poster. A reiterated, almost rhetorically to you. Are you expecting me to now spoonfeed you,

If hypothetical, we wanted society if make that problem worse. What should we do?

Well you were replying to me. You said this:

There’s an obvious course of action to encourage more in each generation to think like that. It’s literally played out multiple times over history, globally.

As somebody who grew up in NI in the 70s, you should probably make that connection I’m alluding to

And no I'm not prepared to guess as to what you're alluding to. Why don't you just say?

But now there's this:

If hypothetical, we wanted society if make that problem worse. What should we do?

I've read that sentence three times and I must really have poor comprehension alright because I've no idea what it says.

I don't blame all Christians for perverted priests, i do though blame the hierarchy who covered it up and those of the flock who try to minimise their crimes. I also don't blame all muslims when a terrorist attack is committed. In the same way i don't hold jews in Australia, or wherever they maybe , to be collectively responsible for the actions of the current Israeli government. I accept the argument that having a prudent immigration system is wise and logical, but as you likely know well there is a difference between that and Islamophobia which assumes all muslims are either backward jihadists or potential ones. How do non muslims fare in Saudi Arabia and Indonesia by the way? Also if nermal is correct, shouldn't the likes of ISIS have millions of would be suicide bombers instead of the actual numbers they do have.

You do know that nobody has ever argued that every muslim was bad

And here is exhibit B…

45 million Muslims in Europe - virtually zero Islamist terrorist attacks anywhere in Europe in the 2020s. What point are you trying to make about the Muslim population?
