As somebody posted above, this whole situation has nothing to do with the average Muslim any more than it has to do the average Cardiff city fan. It's the same old story of power hungry arseholes at the top of the tree on both sides with an agenda, while the 'normal' people pay the price. It's been that way since the beginning of civilisation and it'll probably always be that way.

I wonder how many politicians kids have been to Iraq or Afghanistan?

As I heard once in a song "Don't say you do this for us,when you don't even know who we are"

RIP to all the victims.



IMHO, part right, part wrong. It's wrong to poke noses into anyone else's business. Until, of course, we think it's right to. eg, a man beating up a woman holding a baby.....do we walk away or not ? Probably not. I'd like to think that everyone on here would interfere.

As Brigitte Gabriel famously said, the average muslim is irrelevant. They don't do bombs or beheadings - they take the kids to school and then go to work to pay the mortgage and the bills. The peaceful majority are irrelevant in this scenario, as were the majority of Germans in 1939-1945, and the average person in China during Mao's regime, or the average Russian under Stalin, or the average Cambodian under Pol Pot, etc, etc, etc, etc. The people who matter are the ones who kill. A tiny minority of course, but the average muslim doesn't know them, or identify with them, or sympathise with them. yet these cnuts still murder people en masse.

Unfortunately, and I hate to say it, as I know what I'll get called, but the start is to do what Trump says; no more muslims until we know who they are. It is beyond any sense to allow a million people into a zone, knowing that a percentage will be terrorist murderers. The countries suffering "terrorist attacks in the name of allah" are the countries with significant muslim populations, aren't they ? Perhaps I'm wrong. Millions of Central Africans might agree with the theory that as the percentage of muslims in a population increases, so do the number of sectarian killings/attrocities. Do facts prove me wrong ? Tell me if they do.

Japan. I'm guessing that the residents of Tokyo fear no terrorist attacks in the name of allah. Tell me why is that ? Foreign policy?
