What about dropping non nuclear bombs on Syrian infants. Is that ok ?
Please stick to the topic of the OP. Thanx.
Its terrible. I t must be horrifying for that family.
It would be wrong to condemn 2bn people because of the actions of a lone nutter though.
Dont you agree ?
If it was a "line nutter" but it isn't. Been keeping up with the news, and counting how many terrorist attacks on totally innocent people have occured in the last 40 days at the hands of so called Muslims in the name of their faith?
They have killed more Muslims than people of any other faith. It is not an attack on Christianity it is an attack on civilisation.
Ive just got up and read back this thread and there are many interesting contributions as people look to find a solution.
The truth of it is that it is a mess that we,the west , have made over many years. We have no moral authority in that region. Our biggest ally is an undemocratic theocracy that kills teenagers for surfing the net.
We subsidise and prop up a rogue state that wages war on unarmed civilians.
We back faction against faction and then are shocked when they turn against us.
We topple despots and then have no plan on how to replace them.
How difficult was it to find a better solution than Sadaam or Momo ?
The joke is that we still think we can sort out a mess of our own making.
We cant.
Step one has to be the big guys sitting down and agreeing that terrorism affects all of us and is bad for business.
US,Russia,China and so on. Once that is done the rest should flow naturally.
But dont hold your breath. Everybody wants a piece of the action.The spirit of British Empire building is still alive and kicking today. And morality and justice are things we worry about back home.
