Mark Steyn on Paris - well worth the read.

 

He sums it up brilliantly at the end:

 

To repeat what I said a few days ago, I’m Islamed out. I’m tired of Islam 24/7, at Colorado colleges, Marseilles synagogues, Sydney coffee shops, day after day after day. The west cannot win this thing with a schizophrenic strategy of targeting things and people but not targeting the ideology, of intervening ineffectually overseas and not intervening at all when it comes to the remorseless Islamization and self-segregation of large segments of their own countries.

Tony Abbott says he will “shirtfront” Vladimir Putin over the downing of MH17, claiming his conversation with the Russian president at the G20 would be “the toughest conversation of all

 

 

Tougher than that? :lol::D:rolleyes:

 

Tony got the boot from PM job in Australia a while after that.

terrorist attack you will not hear the anthem played for, or even hear about at all, on our news.
 

 

"Kaduna (Nigeria) (AFP) - More than 30 people were killed Tuesday when a bomb blast ripped through packed crowds in Yola, northeast Nigeria, just days after President Muhammadu Buhari visited declaring that Boko Haram were close to defeat.

 

 

course this is completely different than the one in France.

It was these dudes.  The type of guys you just want to go have a beer with and watch a football game.  Introduce to the wife and kids.  They're just misunderstood.  It can't be their fault that they like to kill people.

Saint-Denis, France (CNN)A violent, hours-long operation in a Paris suburb ended Wednesday with two suspected terrorists dead, seven detained, new attacks potentially thwarted and further proof, according to French President Francois Hollande, that his country is "at war" with ISIS.


 



The Saint-Denis raid targeted the purported ringleader of last week's bloody Paris attacks and came as the suspects were "about to move on some kind of operation," according to police sources.


 


Gunfire and explosions shook the northern Paris suburb of Saint-Denis early Wednesday as heavily armed police stormed a building where suspects linked to Friday's deadly terrorist attacks were believed to be holed up.


 


Two terrorist suspects have been declared dead, one of them a woman who blew herself up with a suicide belt, according to authorities.


 


Seven other people were arrested, including three men who were removed from an apartment at the heart of the raid. Five police officers were lightly wounded and a police dog was killed during the operation.


 


In their push to unravel the attack plot and the suspected network behind it, counterterrorism and intelligence officials say investigators have uncovered a clue that could be a big break: cell phones believed to belong to the attackers.


 


According to the officials, one of the phones contained a message, sent sometime before the attacks began, to the effect of: OK, we're ready.


 


"It points to a sort of organization," CNN terrorism analyst Paul Cruickshank said, "an attempt to try to synchronize what was going down."


But cracking into their communication won't be easy.


 


Investigators have found encrypted apps on the phones, which appear to have left no trace of messages or any indication of who would have been receiving them, according to officials briefed on the French investigation.

Too many journalists ignore the West's role in all of this. Our countries have spent the past century mistreating the Middle East. When we weren't doing that, we were supplying them with weapons.

If we are to believe the media avoids mentioning Muslims in their news stories because it's not politically correct, then we should believe a thousand times more that our own governments carry a good share of the blame.

The middle east has hated us for way longer than 100 years.

Islam has been trying to eradicate Christianity since it's inception 1400 years ago.

And there has been an ethic cleansing of christians going on there for over a hundred years.

In the early 20th century 20% of the population of the middle east was Christian. ....now it's 5% and quickly falling.

What I'm saying is that highlighting these murders for their particular motivation is pointless

OK. You started saying that these attacks didn't happen. When I pointed out actual examples of them happening, you attacked the messenger. Now you are saying that even though these attacks do exist, it is pointless to consider them. I don't get it. But I've never understood apologists.

Probably because you're not a coward.

Unlike most lefty apologists......who,to quote The Last Mohecan: 'would rather make love to their own faces than fight'

So quite the epic takedown over night in France of 9 more bad guys, meanwhile, two Air France planes diverted due to bomb threats.  Things are really spiraling out of control.  I am wondering if the big Climate party gets moved to Montreal now, so that JT and the premier of Alberta can show everyone how much we want to join them to fight a fairy tale, while continuing to put their heads in the sand about an actual threat.

Odd that a soccer game would attract a stadium full of Islamic radicals.

From September but I think relevant to the discussion of refugees (Washington Post):

The world has been transfixed in recent weeks by the unfolding refugee crisis in Europe, an influx of migrants unprecedented since World War II. Their plight was chillingly highlighted on Wednesday in the image of a drowned Syrian toddler, his lifeless body lying alone on a Turkish beach.

A fair amount of attention has fallen on the failure of many Western governments to adequately address the burden on Syria's neighboring countries, which are struggling to host the brunt of the roughly 4 million Syrians forced out of the country by its civil war.

Some European countries have been criticized for offering sanctuary only to a small number of refugees, or for discriminating between Muslims and Christians. There's also been a good deal of continental hand-wringing over the general dysfunction of Europe's systems for migration and asylum.

Less ire, though, has been directed at another set of stakeholders who almost certainly should be doing more: Saudi Arabia and the wealthy Arab states along the Persian Gulf.

As Amnesty International recently pointed out, the "six Gulf countries — Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain — have offered zero resettlement places to Syrian refugees." This claim was echoed by Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch.

The True Cost of Europe's Muslim "Enrichment"

by George Igler
November 18, 2015 at 5:00 am

 

  • The United Nations, in 2000, advocated the "replacement" of Europe's population by Muslim migrants.

  • There seems to be an economic premise underlying this view: that importing the Muslim world en masse into Europe is mutually beneficial. For decades, the mass immigration of Muslims into Europe has been labelled "enrichment." Shouting "Islamophobia" does not negate how it is virtually impossible to think of a country actually made richer by it.

  • Even in a country with an established Islamic population such as Britain, Muslim unemployment languishes at 50% for men, and 75% for women.

  • Those using an economic rationale to implement Europe's demographic transformation fail to recognize the complexities of Islam: they ignore the fundamentalist revival that has been ongoing for over a century. One feature of this growing embrace of literalism is a belief -- validated by scripture -- that Muslims are entitled to idly profit from the productivity of infidels.

  • The idea that with time, Islam's religious tenets will somehow moderate and dissolve, merely by being lodged in Europe, is wishful thinking, especially in communities where Muslim migrants already outnumber indigenous Europeans.

  • The "blind eye" turned towards polygamy in Britain, France, Belgium and Germany has ensured that some Muslim men have upwards of 20 children by multiple wives, almost always at state expense.
