agreed, you would never get me to buy into the whole 40 virgin thing, but if I lived in a mud hut in the desert it may seem appealing.
But its not just people like that signing up for terrorism. There are young, educated men leaving their first world countries to train with the likes of ISIS, for who knows what reason. Why do they feel so disenchanted that they turn to such heinous groups?

ISIS is a terrorist state that holds territory it captured through military victory over Iraq and Syria. That land can be reclaimed.

ISIS is not just a terror state. It has become and is an idea, a movement which is something that is very hard to destroy. This is why we should never take such groups lightly or trivialize their potential threat. This isn't a "JV team".

Then we both agree.

If we want to avoid another situation in which we end up sending troops overseas as a reflex reaction to a terrorist attack in the same vain as what occurred in France then we are going to have to secure our own nation by enforcing our laws, securing our borders and screening people who want to come in order to avoid another another adventure overseas.

However allowing PC bullshit like sanctuary cities and other flagrant non-enforcement of our immigration laws needs to stop now. We have been given a chance to learn from the horrible events in France. An open door immigration policy without any standards in place to control who can and cannot come in is beyond stupid and naive. Worst of all such a policy has been shown to lead to the loss of innocent lives over and over again.

But that's not "safe", nor PC, nor conforming to the SJW mantra of "i will scream racism any time you try to disagree with me".

But we have them contained. Don't worry about it. They are nothing more than a few guys and are *not* radical islamists.

Understood, but I wouldn't say that is the case for the majority of them.

Its does beg the question as to why these educated men are choosing to join ISIS and the like.

Psychology and sociology are actually very complex phenomena. However I will add that white, rich, and young individuals do equivalent stuff all the time, some even joining ISIS.

What I have said many times already.

The refugee crisis is new. This attack was planned for a while. It's almost certain most or all were already there.

Not sure what difference it makes; they will all be shown to have very close ties to Islam and be first gen immigrants in substantial numbers or related closely to others in countries that grow jihadists like we grow corn.
It has less to do with the religion itself, and more to do with sociological conditions of Muslims around the world right now.
And why do muslims live in shit conditions? Because of their religion. It is anti-intellectual, anti-free speech, it is anti literally everything that makes the West win at life.
Well, unless they start deporting now, its to late. Angela Merkel opened the floodgates back in August. In 10 years time, If family reunification is counted [and it should], there could be 20 million Muslims added to Germanys population in just 10 years [Germany has a total population of 80 million today btw]. And that is a low ball figure, my opinion is the migrant issue is just the tip of the iceberg and its never going to stop unless all borders are fortified and people are sent home. The population growth rate in the 3rd world is ridiculous [most 3rd world nations double their population every 22 years] and with Europe waving free handouts, and promising the economic-migrants a free home/car...Those people will try and move there.

And the 20 million number is just for Germany btw. It doesnt count the people moving to Sweden, Italy, the UK, France etc. Europe is being colonized, thats all there is to it.
It is a clear and present danger to the sanctity of Europe. Mass immigration from the third world is actively gutting European culture.

This has been going on for a long time. In 1994 I stayed with a German family in an exchange. The grandfather, who lost an arm and a leg in the war when he was 14 in 1945, said that it was going to happen. At the time the Germans were letting Turks and other muslims in. Mosques were being built all over Germany. Germans were fearful for their culture but anybody who said anything was condemned as a neo-nazi.

French have also allowed this to happen. Look at Calais.

I think Germany is so sensitive to speaking out against any people after what they did in WWII that it has made them collectively too weak to ever speak out. Nothing about what they are doing now at the highest level of their government makes sense to me. Their level of guilt must be crushing them still from WWII, I can't think of why else they would simply open up their country without a care in the world. I know many Germans are enraged over it and this immigration crisis is going to create more hard core right wing groups.

Getting rid of religion will do nothing.

To the contrary; what do you think incites these men to commit rape and slaughter? No, it couldn't possibly be their religious texts that command rape and slaughter. That would be silly, to claim that people actually believe what they believe.

Religion in any meaningful capacity will die all by itself over time, the world will be better for it too.

Not if the religious have any say in the matter. Convert, die by the sword or be forced into (sex) slavery. 'Tis what happened in antiquity with Judaism, what happened in the past with Christianity, and what is happening now with Islam.

As I have said in other threads, the liberals just don't understand the alienation they are forcing upon most of the population. They only keep it bottled up by crying bigotry at every turn, but that can only last so long.

Yet the only way to deal with them for good is a full-scale ground invasion, like Iraq '03.
US does not want to do it, cost was too high last time on the same terrain. Question is is it even winnable without heavy casualties?
No other nation want to do it either, for they have learned what happened and is still happening in Iraq and Afghanistan.
My guess as things start to get worse, there will be coalition of mixed western and eastern countries.

You'd think that Germany would do every damn thing to distance itself from Islam. You know, what with that ol' chant of theirs:

"Allah's in Heaven and Hitler's on earth"

There was also Saudi Arabia's envoy that made parallels between Hitler's slaughter of the Jews and Mohamed's slaughter of the Jews. Guy's name was Khalid al-Hud al-Gargani.


Argh. Europe's fucked, thanks to the sheer stupidity, incompetence and naivety of politicians. I wonder if there are back-door bribes going on en-masse, or are the cookie-cutters just stupid beyond compare.

I think what we have learned is just like the extremist on the right we in fact has extremists on the left. I call them regressives, the overallly social justice warrior types.

That said you cant be a bigot or racist and expect to hide behind the overly politically correct either. Sooner or later all asshats out themselves, right, left or whatever.

The big questions you can ask to find out if your dealing with a regressive.

If two people get drunk and fuck and the woman regrets it in the morning is that rape? the answer will tell you who your dealing with.

Due to ISIS declaring a Caliphate, it must hold territory. It cannot become an underground group like Al Qaeda because a Caliphate with no territory, is according to their own writings illegitimate. So yes, taking and holding all of ISIS territory with ground forces would possibly put an end to them.

I might support a "coalition" of forces, but not the US going in alone with a world policeman style, nation building, lets arm the latest rebel group of the month, money draining quagmire. Its time for other nations to step up.

1) dont talk about your mom that way

2) your a know Islamic sympathizer

3) a gun is a tool, not a religion, not a way of life, not an ideology, a gun by itself has no agenda, Hench the statement that guns dont kill people. Religion has over the years been used to breed hate, start wars, and lead to the deaths of thousands. Current radical Islam is leading to the deaths of thousands, denying that is just willful ignorance. Obama and people like you cannot open up your close minded liberal minds to the fact that the religion is used for violence. You are dismissing a root cause because of your own personal bias.

Oh look, more crap from the nasty little shit stain.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. There is what people think, what they say in private conversation, and then there is the public-consumption illuminated view they exhibit which is something else.
Yet the only way to deal with them for good is a full-scale ground invasion, like Iraq '03.
US does not want to do it, cost was too high last time on the same terrain. Question is is it even winnable without heavy casualties?

Why are you trying to defeat ISIS? Before ISIS there was islamic terrorism and there will be after. ISIS is just another criminal, when you lock him you haven't stopped future crimes. Defeating ISIS is a temporary thing. If you want to seriously curtail terrorism in western nations (I don't believe it can be elsewhere in the islamic world except through monarchist dictatorships that keep a very tight order and put many under the regime's boot) you need to focus on islam in general, not just the current flavor of the day, ISIS.

There's very high concentration of the Islamic terrorists at one place. Removing them would buy us some time.
Don't you see that due to their success the attacks in Europe are getting more and more extreme, and more fatal.

No, because "religion" isn't the cause -- extremists terrorism is.

But the religion incites the violence, rape and slavery. It's right there in the text; and it should be of no surprise, Islam is an Abrahamic religion.

Now, if these men were Jainists, you would have reason to call it extreme terrorism. But people following their religious texts when it commands them to slay infidels and non-believers? That's not extremism. That's religion.

What I do not understand is why the Muslims want to move and live in "infidels" nations such as EU, US, Canada, Australia and such? I haven't hear any Muslims that want to move to Arab Saudi or Iran or any other well know Muslim country in the Middle East or elsewhere such as Indonesia.

If you hate "infidels" so much, why come here?

Duh, because they want the entire world to be one giant Islamic state eventually.
