I'm more than happy to go toe to toe with you on the issue from the faiths founding to Hassan Al banna and up to today. Otherwise avoid playing the simpleton racist card, especially since I'm feeling you are woefully undereducated in the topic but foolish enough to adopt a knowing posture. The dads dismissal of ideology when he is likely looking for solace and answers in it right now is to be expected. You are talking about the center of his identity. Also, most of the 'lone wolves' engagement with IS narratives is normally isolated from family even if the wider religious values are not. Thirdly, it's turning out that he was on fbi books two years ago and police on the scene are looking into lsource that says he pledged allegiance to IS in a phone call before the attack. Now, even if this is as far from the normal trends as possible and he turns out to be a nominal follower who had a social circle like a united colors of Benetton ad (very unlikely) my point that he was likely raised in a very hostile climate to homosexuality remains although as I expected, it looks unlikely that it was the sole or key motivation as the parents said. Lastly, the fact that this thread has slipped into gun control mode is all very depressing, guns are easy to come across in Florida, as they were in Paris and in the gun control and gun crime capital, Chicago. This is almost certainly another IS inspired act in he global jihadist insurgency after the recent Sheikh Adnani worldwide call to do it during Ramadan (and receive multiplied afterlife benefits) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvoys Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 You shouldny take yersel to seriously Ok here I go full paranoid whacko mode. People won't get the Huntington clash of civilizations reality until the dirty bomb is sourced and deployed over a euro city. At which point, a lurch into reality will completely disorientate society and we start going into mob rule mode. This is what some think is behind obamas pre presidency Jesus rhetoric to hawk in chief. He has seen the intelligence over Isi and Pakistans nuclear materials. And we know IS had Belgium nuclear plant blueprints and this is their holy grail (aside from Daqib etc) To stop them before they get there we need a generational battle against the ideology like we did against homophobia, racism etc. this will involve a public conversation that deals with history, religious figures and ideas that looks almost the complete opposite form the current play it safe discourse and tangled foreign policy, You can already see this disconnect playing out in smaller scale between the ruling classes and population with the shift to right and protectionism in Europe and how each attack boosts trumps chances, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jake Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Well played for seeing it for what it is and not letting the ill informed, blinkered and kneejerk reacting bullies sway you from pointing this out. Free speech was cherished and fearlessly defended by the likes of those that are now acting like thought police to stifle open debate. It's been turned upside down and most can't see it. Try to stay away from these threads as sick of being branded racist etc by the gang that police this forum. What you say is spot on. At one time the left in this country defended against right wing extremists. Not now. They only allow themselves to do that if they are white. I see the usual suspects are right in there accusing others of not knowing facts when its plainly obvious what the facts are. There is good and bad in this world and it comes in the form of all races and religions. We would be doing the decent muslims who are in conflict with their own hardline right wing anti humanity a favour if we condemned the utter shit they spout. But no these threads go quiet because the social justice internet crew the same ones who post endless shit on facebook make you out as some kind of edl thug. In this country its driven by the over ran labour party . Not more than two months ago warnings were given about attacks on western culture. Well here we are.

Yes, it seems like the US is a really easy target for the Muslimoid nutter groups (as well as others). Don't have to bother with sleeper cells or weapon smuggling. Just wait for a weirdo with sympathetic tendencies to whip themselves up into a frenzy, then pick up an assault rifle like it ain't no thing, post a few terroristy things on social media then head out the house and kill lots of people.

There's no need to get so defensive because someone tries to debate or argue against your opinion. Ridley its the accusation of being racist or xenophobic that stifles debate. I could be personal and decsrbe my family history. I wont . I like to think my argument stands on its own. I try to not play the poster but the post but increasingly i find that certain posters have a definite agenda. Im at a loss to whats happening to the labour movement in this country. Free speech is certainly curbed . We have had this discussion before . This thread is not about that but i gave you examples of that. The rape and sexual exploitation of children (white children)was ignored because people were afraid to speak out in case of being accused of racism. There are many other examples of this that do not involve asians . Just in case you think ive a particular grievance against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a rambling phone call to the police stating allegiance to ISIL just before going out to kill as many gay people as he could. This was a anti-gay hate crime.

As I said, Douglas Murray doesn't need to think too long to realise that an ideology that would have him executed or imprisoned in over half of the countries where it is prevalent is probably something that he should be opposed to. I'm sorry, but I still don't understand what point you're trying to make. I especially don't understand the last sentence. The implication being that your freedom of expression is effectively limited by violent theocrats whether they are next door or a thousand miles away yet most still don't this as a real ideological struggle that directly affects us.
