The thing is though, I think we, with our foreign policies of bomb first, ask later, have handled this abysmally. We've only proved that the West is evil and needs to go.
exactly
radical islam is just an after effect of hypocritical, selfish, cold-hearted westerners who don't care about how many people die every second as a consequence of their ignorance and stupidity...
one could say: you deserve radical islamism

Hi posters.
I'm astounded that NO post clearly adressed the problem of ISRAEL, and the fact that UK founded and armed the state of ISRAEL on the land of ISLAMIC Palestinians.
NO post clearly adressed the fact that USA is the constant ally of ISRAEL, allowing this country to squash its ISLAMIC neighbours.
Western countries, beeing supporters of ISRAEL, are de facto, ennemies of ISLAM. It's that simple.
Now, if you ask me what I think of Islamic extremists, I'll answer you : "as soon as GOD is supposed to be on your side, the World is in a mess".
- Got mit uns
- In God we trust
- God save the Queen
- Allah Akhbar
- A people chosen by God
- etc ... etc ...
God help us !

What's funny, is that if this thread was about Israel.. it would immediately be proclaimed as "hate speech", and would be closed very quickly.

In 1922 the population of Palestine consisted of approximately 589,200 Muslims, 83,800 Jews, 71,500 Christians and 7,600 others (1922 census[8]). Gradually a large number of Jews immigrated to the area, most of whom were fleeing increasing persecution in Europe. This immigration and accompanying call for a Jewish state in Palestine drew violent opposition from local Arabs, in part because of Zionism's stated goal of a Jewish state, which many Arabs believed would require the subjugation or removal of the existing non-Jewish population.
On 29 November 1947 the United Nations General Assembly approved a plan, UN General Assembly Resolution 181, to resolve the Arab-Jewish conflict by partitioning Palestine into two states, one Jewish and one Arab.
Each state would comprise three major sections, linked by extraterritorial crossroads; the Arab state would also have an enclave at Jaffa.
With about 32% of the population, the Jews would get 56% of the territory, an area that contained 499,000 Jews and 438,000 Palestinians, though this included the inhospitable Negev Desert in the south.
The Palestinians would get 42% of the land, which had a population of 818,000 Palestinians and 10,000 Jews. In consideration of its religious significance, the Jerusalem area, including Bethlehem, with 100,000 Jews and an equal number of Palestinians, was to become a Corpus Separatum, to be administered by the UN.[27]The Jewish leadership accepted the partition plan as "the indispensable minimum,"[28] glad as they were with the international recognition but sorry that they did not receive more.
Arguing that the partition plan was unfair to the Arabs with regard to the population balance at that time, the representatives of the Palestinian Arabs and the Arab League firmly opposed the UN action and even rejected its authority to involve itself in the entire matter.[30] They upheld "that the rule of Palestine should revert to its inhabitants, in accordance with the provisions of [...] the Charter of the United Nations."[31] According to Article 73b of the Charter, the UN should develop self-government of the peoples in a territory under its administration.

Ok, sorry to recall some historical facts, but I think it's not useless, if we want to understand the root of the problems we're facing to-day :
The creation of Israel.

Now that pieces are connected, just imagine this scenario :
- You're English, in UK. Italy has been whipped out by earthquakes.
- Arguing a long back presence of the Romans on your ground, the Romists decide to stage a Roman territory on UK, and the UN, decides to share UK between the Italians and the English-born citizens.
- Thanks to the Italian "diaspora" in the USA, this country decidesd to help the Romists, which they train and arm.
Etc... See the figure ?
It's SF, I agree. But it's what occured to the Palestinians !
There are now more than 5 Million palestinians refugees in the Middle East.
If you think it's not enough to feed the fire ...
Someone in a post, told "we haven't enough bombed them".
I think he should takie some more history curses.

Ok.
If you think that speaking of ISRAEL and of the conditions of it's creation on the land of Palestine, is "off topic" when the topic is "Radical Islam", well... you're missing something.
Besides this, don't forget that I didnn't say that it was the ONLY origin of the HATE that radical Islam shows towards the West.
Islam has been, is and will be intrinsiquely a danger for our civilization.
But to be honest, you must aknowledge that in 1922, Arabs, Jews ans Christians lived there IN PEACE since a lot of centuries. Zionism put the fire in this region.
For your claim of "history hasn't begun in 1922" ...
Yes, I know.
Has it begun when GOD "gave" this land to the sons of Israel ?
[/qu
& befor 1922 ?
you still havnt gone into the complete history of the said area.
& yes i agree that islam is a continueing threat to civilization.
