    We are in the beginning stages of WWIII, but we don't even recognize it because THIS enemy doesn't have a Messerschimtts or Panzers, etc. They do have Hondas and Toyotas, however. (3 Vehicular Jihad attacks in the last few days.)

    Hell yes, Saudi Arabia didn't even make the travel ban list despite being the place where most of the 9/11 terrorists came from.
    Trump is no better than any who came before him when it comes to lucrative big oil and defence contracts.

    Tell that to the relatives of those who were killed - or even worse, mutilated and maimed by their 'catastrophic injuries' - and see if they agree with you.

    Only because you import terrorism.

    The political fools get "bundled" into cars and evacuated or have personal armed security guards.

    Normal people? Not so much. They get mowed down and told to keep that stiff English upper lip going.

    FOX is so bias. They take this issue, and try to turn it into a pro-Trump agenda piece.

    Good point. But a rhetorical question: What must be going through the mind of any 'human being' when he's driving a vehicle at speed feeling the impacts of solid steel against flesh and bone, not to mention the fear on the faces of those who are looking directly at him as he heads straight at them? ffs who can even conceive of doing such a thing let alone actually carrying it out. They're not human, they're mutants.

    Why the hell did you start it then? Over a million Muslims have died due to the actions of the US....and how many thousands do you think your secular people have killed while sitting in a room pointing at a target....and if we take it that this man was inspired by ISIS, just why is there no thought to the people who are the main people killed by these terrorists, Muslims themselves.

    Like me, they'd undoubtedly agree, but would they care? That's the point I was making - that your comment was a non sequitur.

    No, I won't openly criticise anyone else's religious text. This is "out of bounds", because it is an insult at a very fundamental level and would, in the practitioners' eyes, be seen as you placing yourself above god. That can only go one way.

    Its like saying that a race has "inferior" DNA. Religious practice can be criticized, much like someone's behaviour can be criticised. But as humble mortals, you and I cannot judge what is superior or inferior in either genetics or God.

    You could "get away with" having sex with a 7 yo girl in Delaware in 1880, although for most of the United States it was 10 at the time....

    I'm not saying that this was right, but for most of human civilized history, marriage was primarily a function of property allocation rather than sexual desire.

    I thought of suspected that he would be a 'recent' convert. The two Lee Rigby murderers were carried out by converts. The subway attacker was carried out by a 'recent' convert.

    It seems like potential murderers find an avenue to validate their murderous intentions in order to self-justify their murders. How 'Muslim' were they?

    You do understand, that your post only reinforces, what librals claim is a misguided belief held by many Americans? To wit: That all muslims, regardless of nationality, or assimilation, are potential terrorists. Further, that Islam is inherently violent. Kudos!

    This is something I'll speak up for CNN about. They have a policy of not naming these killers. Seems the BBC can't get enough of him.

    Indeed; and child marriage and betrothal was both commonplace and a cultural norm in the West in the time of Mohammad and beyond. Furthermore the accusation of paedophilia so often levelled by the unthinking conservative right is also misplaced, as there was no such concept at the time. Attempting to conflate 21st century morality with that of the Dark Ages is stupid and doomed to fail.

    No, I don't understand this and have an other opinion about.

    #01 ... these "Islam is in general evil" trolls can't be convinced to believe in reality rubbish by anything of facts.
    #02 ... any serious and important differences are ignored in general, because anything what hurts it, is ignored.

    But I must say "gocha", that it was this time not an in general evil refugee or immigrant, because that own people can become victim of rat pipers and do such things was in parts denied to happen by these trolls too!

    I'm afraid the once-great BBC has lost its way in many things. In one report they referred to him as Mr Masood. :roll:
