I think the question that should be asked is “we will ever defeat terrorism”. However hypocritical or honest your interpretation of what terrorism is will provide a myriad of answers. There will always be perverse ideologies. The source of these ideologies aren’t confined between races, religions or classes. Dangerous ideologies usually breed the potential for terrorism, and they exist all over the place. The answer to whether or not we will actually defeat terrorism period is dependant on whether or not we’re big enough to take a look in the mirror. Anything is possible where there is a strong enough will, but we first must acknowledge our own acts of terrorism, and stop participating in them. Until that time comes, terrorist attacks will occur habitualy and all over the world. And terror starting from the West will almost certainly be the most damaging.

Edited by Mstrobez (10 Jun 2018 3.52am) The overwhelming statistic reality is that the vast majority of terrorism around the world is carried out by the adherents of one religion. We obviously know that the majority of Muslims just don't support this. I don't think it helps to muddy the waters with expanding out the definition of terrorism to include the actions of states you don't like or agree with. At the very least you would need to be explicit in making your case for this. Edited by Stirlingsays (10 Jun 2018 7.58am) 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith.

I view Robinson in much the same way plenty on the left view Corbyn and on the right view Trump: a blunt instrument. A direction of travel to a location, but not an address. There is no doubt that there are supporters of Robinson who go too far. I don't support violence against people because of their religion. That's societal breakdown and we need to avoid that because innocent people frequently end up getting hurt. Essentially what was Robinson doing before he was arrested and jailed? Before the hornet's nest was stirred? He was highlighting the excesses of Islam and the rapes of thousands of girls which has been downplayed by the state.......who are negligent in the enabling of these rapes. There are wider questions about birth demographics and what the nature of a country is or what we should want or advocate. I'm willing to have those conversations but everything gets mired in overly reactive language. Edited by Stirlingsays (10 Jun 2018 10.47am) 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith.

What if the extended family of a terrorist murderer got their dole /benefits severely curtailed ? And or were put on compulsory 'back to work ' schemes ? Higher income taxes too. Money talks You wanna suicide yourself ( and kill kids ) in the guaranteed knowledge of bringing much hardship to all your relatives. Terrorists live among the community , let the community flex some muscle. Edited by PalazioVecchio (10 Jun 2018 9.04pm) Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford

I recommend Chomsky. Honestly have a look. Quoted for truth. People on the opposite political fence to Chomsky may try to deride him, but his conclusions are rigourously evidenced and (short of putting ones fingers in ones ears and shouting "lalalalala I can't hear you" are very, very hard to argue against. Radical Islamic terrorism is a tool, not an enemy, of Power in the "developed" world. Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)
