FMD these 20 something radicalised merkins in the UK. Amazing that they can be convinced that killing 20 will actually achieve anything. Maybe they want the west to start shutting down prayer halls so that it brings in more muslims into this religious war.

I was in Paris and London at xmas and probably not travel now.

We are booked to go to New York and Washington this year and TBH thinking that I might just stay home or go to Broome or Hobart instead.

Radicalisation is about politics and social status. Islam is just the weapon used to radicalise these poor disenfranchised schmucks. England already had a lot of them due to a big class divide and Brexit only made it worse, so now there's a huge pool of angry youths to work with.

Maybe they need more candlelight vigils, 'ride with me' initiatives and people sharing their Facebook profiles with the colours of the victim country.

This religion is garbage. Yes before the lefties say but what about the crusades etc. What I say is this. Christians got it out of their system about 400 years ago. The occasional lunatic and organisation has targeted innocent people in the name of a Christian God but nothing in recent history of this coordinated scale by these uneducated, violent, vile excrement.

This is the thanks we get for taking this trash from their shit countries. Everytime some local citizen lunatic does this their whole immediate family should be expelled from the country and returned to the very garbage they came from.

There are certainly extremists influencing young men. They need to shut this down.

My religion is better than yours rubbish will achieve zip. Simply put, whatever your religion is there has been extremists killing each other in the past as well. Today it is islam. In a decade it will be someone else's turn. Even the most "peaceful" religion Buddhism has it's own crazies blowing up punters.

Parents friends relatives need to take ownership of this and turn in the radicalised, like they would if they were out of control on ice or mentally ill.

Their is no leadership in Islam. Catholics have one, so does the Orthodox, the Anglicans too. So do the Buddhists. I ask you who the f**k is theirs??

They are too f**king pig headed to have one because every one of them knows best.

IMO thats a big part of the problem ... i think the relatives either have some resentment also or are too weak to act ... cos i dont think they have a culture/existence of dobbing in even the worst of their own

We are the infidel. Never forget that. Even Waleed Aly deep down thinks so. However we should give him his own lefty TV show and nominate him for another gold Logie.

Stuff like this only contributes to the divide. You dont know what he thinks. What are you trying to achieve other than to drive a wedge ? Don't you realize that this is exactly what the extremists want ?

The wedge in Bosnia works. Clowns to the left, jokers to the right. While you're stuck in the middle with the other pussies.

They keep attacking these soft countries with softies like you for a reason. Has it worked?

I'd give Putin a leadership role to solve this crisis. You can't have Trump parading around in Saudi Arabia with their corrupt government and expect anything better just before Ramadan.

We need to give all of their kind the cold shoulder no matter how much money the west make from them.

Seems to me they want us dead.......all this other garbage people sprout about being tolerant and not giving into them has not served us well.

Problem is that it is way too late to do anything because they are too ingrained into our countries........all we can hope is that we aren't the next victims.......

Strong arm intolerance against innocent muslims is not the answer however.

Gronk, perhaps you can illustrate where the soft liberal lefty approach you seem to advocate has in any way diminished the savage attacks by the militant Muslims

As Avenger suggests , the Islamic religion and even the majority of their followers seem reluctant to take any sort of action, their condemnations always seem a little muted

Then again if people lfrom the left like Kathy Griffin see no wrong in holding up the severed head of the President, I guess that underlines the difficulty the left have is seeing this radical religion as evil. I am in the States at the moment and the majority of people are appalled at people like her and their insensitivity

This is exactly what political groups like IS want you to think. Target the religion and ignore the root cause, which in turn allows them to play the religious persecution card and continue to recruit poor saps who buy it hook line and sinker.

This is about power in the middle east. Religion is just the weapon and you've fallen for it.

And people from the right saw no issue with conservatives portraying the lynching of Barack Obama. Both sides are precious, one eyed idiots, plain and simple

Don't play politics with me Delboy. If you wish to contribute to the conversation, how about providing some actual solutions. Rounding them up like Japs in WWII and put them in prison camps ? No, the solution is obviously far more sophisticated than that I'm sure you agree.

What do you suggest? These extremists are only in their 100s yet could be your neighbours. How do you suggest you fix it? I'll give you a hint: scarcasm and playing party politics wont work.

Here is exactly what IS want. They want these random killings to fracture our society. They want the billion peaceful muslims to be persecuted through unnecessary paranoia and have no alternative but to fight for their right of religious freedom. Ironically a freedom that we insist upon and enjoy.
