"Stand up to Saudi Arabia, the main bankroller of Sunni terrorism. Refuse to go along with US regime change tactics such as equipping death squads in South America. Maintain a strong armed forces and keep Putin from invading the Baltic States or Eastern Europe. Stop kowtowing to Isreal's bully boy tactics. Tell Iran to stop its support for Shia terrorists. Legalise drugs, thus reducing the fundraising abilities of various terrorist gangster groups." Let Russia be. Why is it okay for the EU to culturally colonise former Bloc nations but not okay for Russian to defy it? | |||

"Do not get involved,yes defend ourselves but let the different fractions fight each other till they see it does not make sense.It may take a generation but muslims will get there if we let them sort there own problems out. " They will never sort it out. Has Iran or Saudi Arabia sorted themselves out? It's lslam that holds them back. | |||

"In reality there is only one way to stop terrorism and that is to kill every terrorist, terrorist supporter and backer. And then remove the reason that bread those terrorists in the first place. In the case of IS that means removing Islam from the world. Clearly that is not an option, therefore we have to accept that Radical Islamic violence is now a permanent fixture in the world for the foreseeable future. " That's the worry though, it's not just radical Islam. People conflate Jesus with Mohammed but they are so different. Mohammed was a conquering Warlord, Jesus wasn't. That's where the problems arise. | |||

"This applies to all cults, but with reference to the most evil of those: a world without islam would be an infinitely more peaceful, more tolerant and more enlightened environment." Islam could do with a New Testament like Christianity has ! | |||

"Islamic extremism is behind the killing of thousands but geopolitics is behind the killing hundreds of thousands. While the focus is currently on Aleppo over in Yemen as many people are being killed by the Saudis in another proxy war against Iran. " Very good point ! Why we let that vile Saudi Regime get away with it is beyond me ! Yes I know it's oil ! Roll on new technologies and no need for oil ! | |||

"Isl Could be the billions the Saudi's pay us each year for our high tech weapons too though. " Yes I don't think any of us doubt that but much of the profit never sees the light of day in the UK because of tax avoidance and the UK subsidising the purchase costs. For me the worst aspect of our supine relationship with KSA is that our government know full well that the Saudis are busy injecting their Wahhabi islamist poison into our society. | |||

"I know Thier are no easy answers ! But has any one on here got any decent ideas on how to end it ? " things that are ongoing for centuries tend not to have easy solutions!..... You could just nuke Saudi Arabia!. This will help three fold. 1 they perpetuate most of the extemisim. 2 with Saudi gone for a few hundred years, we'll be forced to move from petroleum. 3 99.99% of the other terrorists will disappear into the night once they realise were willing to go further than them! | |||

"You cant, it is in their genes, hence why you cant mix religions, they are jealous how peaceful we have it in the western world with christianity. " Congratulations. The winner of The Biggest Racist Bollox Posting of the Week. Presumably that peace is only calculated from after 1945, thus avoiding the 35 million deaths in Euope and the Russian Western Front? | |||

No, it is not, it is an observation, of course there will be war now and again in the world, but we have it far less if you compare them. | |||

They say it, they don't actually mean it. Do you remember the 70s energy crises, the three day weeks of the 70s are often wrongly talked about in terms of strikes, that's not really true. There was once a Saudi king who genuinely cared about Palestine, he did something very profound and peaceful to change that... He said were not going to sell oil to any country that supports Israeli actions and expansion . He basically stopped selling oil to the west, or the west that supported Israel in the UN. . That was 1974, we queued for miles to fill cars and such was the shortage the government mandated a 3 day week for factories on energy rationing, nothing to do with strikes, we just didn't have enough oil to provide energy 5 days a week, something happened quite profound 2 years before that, the USA which had been the Saudi Arabia of the world for 50 years reached peak, they suddenly became oil dependant on other oil countries and the Saudi action asked what that reality looked like.... 1974 was the year the US decided that it could NEVER be held to ransom again, it was the year the west went to war with the middle East, of course the was no headlines, no formal declaration but that's the reality. What we see today is policy decisions made 40,30 and 20 years ago. . Had we decided back then to get off the petroleum boat, the middle East would look decidedly different today!... Of course that's history, the Saudi king was assassinated, OPEC came to fruition and political alliances were made all of which came to dominate the middle East future.

They got to pull apart the spoils along with France of the ottoman empire which had sadly picked the wrong side to fight on. Were a resource based species living with a resource based way of life, it's hardly surprising we have resource based wars?. . However you see the colonial grubbyness, don't make the mistake of thinking it was a land of milk and honey. The middle East has been fighting wars for 2000 years for one reason or another | |||

Palestine had a long history of about 10% Jewish settlement, things were just fine when it was 90% Muslim 10% Jewish and neither of them controlled the place! | |||

"The best way to confuse your enemies is to be very nice to them " . Unfortunately your both just wishful thinking!. For twenty years the west was extremely nice to al Qaida, they supplied them with money and weapons to fight the Russians in Afghanistan, al Qaida actually fell out with the yanks over they're medaling in the Indonesian genocide of christians among other things. Are we now saying we should stop stopping genocide?. I mean don't get me wrong the west aren't saints, far from it, but this notion that we somehow create terrorists by being horrible to people is just bollocks. What should the west have done with salmon Rushdie and his book? Or the cartoonists in France and Holland?. Should we have arrested them for inciting terrorism by being nasty about Islam?. | |||

"There is no military solution to isis or any organization seeking change through violence .You cant bomb idea's.You can make isis political.Regarding Israel a 2 state solution is workable and political power sharing.I lived in israel in 90s and found the Palestinians interested in peace more so than your average Israeli. " . The Palestinians want a two state solution because they've got jack shit, it's like miles better than what they currently have. The Israelis currently have it great already so they don't want a two state solution.... So what's in it for Israel, it has to be a fair exchange where Israel gains some peace, but the Palestinians keep lobbing bombs into Israel so they think why the fuck bother?. To be fair this attitude is kept going by the Israeli government, they deliberately provoke the Palestinian terrorists, they know exactly how to "trigger" the reaction they seek. . Unless the UN gets tough with Israel there's no fucking chance of a two state solution and as we've just seen the minute the UN do actually get serious with them, they just threaten to pull out from the UN membership.... Military wise there's little the UN could do against Israel, however Israel is very very much resource dependant, a UN sanction programme could have a very quick change of opinion from inside Israeli politics. But I wouldn't hold my breath on it. Israel has very high up political lobbying within the UK & US political systems | |||

I was talking more generally about not going to war in Iraq and not supplying weapons to anyone. Never attack, only defend home soil when provoked. Promote peace at all costs and let the conflict die out over a generation or two. Provide a route up the hierarchy of needs for all and tensions quickly drop. | |||

"If being horrible creates terrorists then where's the Indian terrorists,I mean the colonial UK was pretty unpleasant to Indians, where's the massive haul of jainist terrorists with Gandhi as they're leader?. Different religious ideologies react differently to the same problems" There was terrorism in India. There was the Indian Mutiny/1st War if Independence for a start. Fortune meant that Ghandi turned out to be the most charismatic leaders and took the independence movement in a particular direction. At partition even he struggled to control the blood-letting between Muslims and Hindus. | |||

" Large Christian and Jewish populations lived peacefully in the region for thousands of years, so what's changed more in the last 20 years? Religion or geopolitics? Demographics!. . Palestine had a long history of about 10% Jewish settlement, things were just fine when it was 90% Muslim 10% Jewish and neither of them controlled the place!" The most pertinent demographics are that the West has an aging, almost fully employed population. The Middle East have young populations with high levels of unemployment. You provide a method for them to feel heroic and give them a sense of worth and they will, particularly if they perceive or are told that there injustice all around them. | |||

"There is no military solution to isis or any organization seeking change through violence .You cant bomb idea's.You can make isis political.Regarding Israel a 2 state solution is workable and political power sharing.I lived in israel in 90s and found the Palestinians interested in peace more so than your average Israeli. . The Palestinians want a two state solution because they've got jack shit, it's like miles better than what they currently have. The Israelis currently have it great already so they don't want a two state solution.... So what's in it for Israel, it has to be a fair exchange where Israel gains some peace, but the Palestinians keep lobbing bombs into Israel so they think why the fuck bother?. To be fair this attitude is kept going by the Israeli government, they deliberately provoke the Palestinian terrorists, they know exactly how to "trigger" the reaction they seek. . Unless the UN gets tough with Israel there's no fucking chance of a two state solution and as we've just seen the minute the UN do actually get serious with them, they just threaten to pull out from the UN membership.... Military wise there's little the UN could do against Israel, however Israel is very very much resource dependant, a UN sanction programme could have a very quick change of opinion from inside Israeli politics. But I wouldn't hold my breath on it. Israel has very high up political lobbying within the UK & US political systems" The israelis will get peace .Which most israelis want.The biggest hurdle is jerusalem.Here the UN could play a peacekeeeping role as everyone claims Jerusalem.The city should be shared and policed by the UN.Getting israel to agree to this will be difficult. | |||

I fully agree with everything you said, I'd go further and dismantle the entire UK armed services, replaced by something similar to the Swiss system. . It's all irrelevant though as none of that would have stopped the formation and problems of al Qaida,Isis, boko harem. Let's say you pacified them and let them have they're little caliphate...... Do you honestly think the liberals on here could live with the daily goings on in that caliphate?. Christ they can barely live with Saudi Arabia without calling for intervention!. I'm afraid the liberals drag us into as many conflicts as the hawks although at least with honest intentions | |||

"While I do not like linking Islam with terrorism.... (I see it as a bit of a convenient excuse) we have to realise Islam is about 500 years younger than Christianity. When we see how Christianity was 500 or so years ago, the two are not far apart. I do not see any way of stopping idealistical radicals but we should be able to reduce it by embracing our own multi cultural Society and ensuring we as a nation teach our kids about all religions. we will not stop it bee night and it Might take two generations. Of course to speed it up we need to hit them hard at the top of their organisations.... not use the situation to make money as we have done over the past twenty years.

" Not do sure ? Islam seems to be the Religion that wants to convert people by force ! I don't know of any Christian country's where you can be executed for changing ing to Islam , but you certainly can be killed for converting from Islam to Christianity !

"This applies to all cults, but with reference to the most evil of those: a world without islam would be an infinitely more peaceful, more tolerant and more enlightened environment." How about a world without religion....? It is an outmoded medieval construct that has no place in a so-called enlightened society. | |||

Are there any passages in the NT that have "Slay the unbelievers..." Like the Quran? You're just spouting the same stuff people have been saying, terrorist attack after terrorist attack. Well, until recently. | |||

"Thirty years ago most terrorism in the U.K. was carried out by the Irish. That does not mean all Irish were terrorists. We are assuming most terrorism now is carried out by Islamic fundamentalists. However as it normally involves suicide, or the perpetrator ends up on the wrong side of a SF round, we do not actually know whether the responsibility claim ISIS make are actually genuine. The Berlin lorry massacre is quite rudimentary in its execution and would not need a lot of skilful planning. Assuming we are not now experiencing an upsurge in free radicals, this worries me more.... we can defend quite well against elaborately planned terrorism attempts from bomb plots to hijacked aircraft.... but these lesser more basic attacks are going to increase and prove to be very effective. So what can we do? I think we need to revisit permanent armed police on our streets, and the death penalty for convictions. But I watched the 2016 Wipe last night.... as much as I do not like the two individuals, Trump and Farage... they were bloody right! True islams are finding the terrorism of today as abhorrent as you or me. We need those guys to start being vocal in our schools and towns, and convince the vulnerable there is another way. Joking aside, maybe showing pictures of the most famous virgin Susan Boyle would go a long way to quash their ideal. " The Irish thing was tabgible though. There was definite political reason for the IRA and the like. It wasn't nice but they were playing the same game as us. Islam is different. It urges the faithful to subject the unbelievers to offensive and defensive Jihad until "no disbelief remains in the land" and to "drive the Christian (Al al Injil) to the side of the road to humiliate him. It's a very different thing. Islamic terror stikes at everything and anything that strays from the the 7th century Mohammedism. | |||

"If Islam did not exist, would all the reasons that people take extreme action be eliminated? Would there be no totalitarian regimes where people are imprisoned or killed for thinking and behaving differently? Perhaps one pretext would be removed as Muslims are, in general, more devout than Christians although anti-vaccination, AIDS denying, anti-abortion and racist movements in the U.S. claim to be Christian. However, another ideology would be constructed. Marxist terrorism was widespread throughout the last century. If you want to eliminate the problem then you have to eliminate the cause of such bitter anger and discontent...." No I think it would be a different world though. The. Islamic wworldwould be as advanced as the West and there would be fewer terror attacks. | |||

"There seems to be a general sentiment that Islam is a fundamentally more violent religion than any other but Judaism, Christianity and Hinduism (to name those I'm most familiar with) have justified war, violence and enslavement from scripture and pronouncements by the clergy. Secular movements such as Communism and fascism have been equally blood thirsty. Violent Islamism (as opposed to the religion of Islam) is simply currently the most widely employed ideology to mobilise the disaffected poor, unemployed and hopeles. They are overly represented in the Islamic world not because of anything inherent in the religion. In its history it has far exceeded the learning and tolerance of the western world. It is how the regimes in power have chosen to employ religion to maintain control of the population. This has been subverted to undermine them and attack the West which have supported many of these regimes and exploited resources. This is politics though. Religion is a tool. The same methodology has been retasked very effectively by Trump, Brexit and other nationalistic movements. Tell those who are suffering that you can fix everything. Use some emotive phrases that cannot be objectively measured or defined or achieved. Make America great again. Take our country back. Establish a global caliphate. Deny and ignore any objective data that contradicts your position and appeal directly to emotion. Tell everybody that there is a conspiracy. Don't trust the press as they're part of it and state that anything that is said against you is part of the conspiracy. Tell everyone to trust you and only listen to information that you provide or approve of. Get them to uncritically follow you. It's been done time and time again over history."

Are all Muslims bloodthirsty? Does anyone disagree with the parallels that I've drawn between methods used by Islamist militancy, Trump and Brexit? Before anyone gets outraged, I am not drawing parallels between their aims only the method of gathering support. | |||

The nation has never been so divided and it's because of politics like yours. Do you not see some irony in what you've just written? Scotland has a distinct culture and separate legal system. You are half Jewish and therefore from another distinct religion and background. Yet here you are angry at people who are different, just different in another way to you. No there is no irony. My family came and integrated really well, took on British names. They mixed with Scots and became culturally Scottish. We don't see that today with Muslims. There are millions of people here with bad English skills, even years after arriving. You want MULTI-culture, which is just a bi word for no culture. Multiculture and not our culture. " There are over 300,000 Brits living in Spain....the vast majority of whom know little more than a handful of Spanish words, there are also large enclaves of Spain that invading Brits have attempted to turn into Little Britain.....go figure. | |||

I'll leave you alone with your anger and sweeping generalisations Does anyone else disagree with the concept that those with ill intent will manipulate whatever situation or ideology is to-hand to gain power and manipulate a population, or is it only Muslims who have done this in the history of the world? Are all Muslims bloodthirsty? Does anyone disagree with the parallels that I've drawn between methods used by Islamist militancy, Trump and Brexit? Before anyone gets outraged, I am not drawing parallels between their aims only the method of gathering support." . There's a real life test we could do Are you up for it? | |||

" I'm maternally Jewish and we've never needed 'help' nor needed to convincing that murdering gentiles is a bad thing. You just look at the Pew opinion polls from lslamic nations and it's scary. The lslamic world is a shithole because of lslam. They seem to agree with me because they are trying to get into Europe in their millions.

Are they lesser persons than you because they are "old fuckers"?...... Regardless of whether English is the world's language (many would argue that it's possibly Spanish), it's absolutely no different.....in fact in many ways it's the same, many British children living in Spain are often fluent in Spansh by the time they reach secondary education there, in the same way the vast majority of immigrant children in Britain soon became fluent in English. It's your dislike of immigration into the UK that clouds your vision..... | |||

You're eighty years behind the times mate but I'll bring it bang up-to date for you with a translation from the Arabic: one people, one religion and one God...whose name is Allah. And you can swap Mein Kampf for the Koran and think of the members of the Islamic State as today's Storm troopers/Waffen SS. | |||
