Is It Time To Accept The War (Jihad) Declared On Us?

[youngmafbog]

Seems to me we(the West) need to accept we are at war. So we should formally accept this and start interning those that wish us(or potentially wish us) ill.
Enough of talk let ys start to walk the walk. We all know the religion behind this let us get that reliogion to flush out those that sympathise and support the jihad and intern them.

I wonder how you would advise what action should be taken and by whom ?

[Zacs-Master]

And how, exactly, do we find every person who wishes us I'll?

elementary mind-reading, ZM. Is Derren Brown or someone like that free?

It is more than time that we accepted that we are at war. That is the starting point.

How to proceed is the problematic area. I would, reluctantly, accept that we need, at the very least, identity cards as in WW2. These cards should also state religion, or none. I have argued against identity cards in the past, but I am wiser now. They are the basic starting point. We need to know who is in the UK, where they are, their nationality and religion. It is very basic.

I don't know how often this needs repeating but, while all ISIS soldiers are Muslims, not all Muslims, nor even most of them, support ISIS in any way. For sure we need to work as hard as possible to combat terrorism, but that won't be achieved by treating Islam in its entirety as the threat.

[Zacs-Master]

We are at war but the enemy is nothing like we've ever encountered before. All our accepted military strategies have been proven to fail against an 'army' which operates in brainwashed fanatical cells which grow with every Western action against them.

it was Isis who called for France to be made a special target for terrorist action; so you might have heard about them yesterday.

[anneasquith]

Jourdain. Why would it be necessary to have our religion stated on ID cards ?

[bednobs]

what do you ean "intern them"? employ them as interns?

[Zacs-Master]

No comment from the OP I see.

[jourdain2]

I would normally say that it was no-one's business, anne, and (as I said) I have openly opposed Identity Cards in the past. Now I feel that we are in a war situation and that, whilst not all Muslims are enemies, (I believe that) the enemy is comprised of Muslims. Therefore we need to know where and who they are. Rather in the way that in WW2 all Germans were registered.

This is not acceptable under normal circumstances, I accept that and would argue that myself, passionately, but I have considered for some time that we are at war - and that changes the rules. Sorry for that, but that is what has happened - not of my seeking, but the only response.

[jourdain2]

Who said anything about 'interning' people?

divebuddy, this from teh Guardian

One reason that France is a particular target is down to a specific decision by Islamic State to target it. In September 2014, shortly after the beginning of airstrikes by a US-led coalition which includes France, the chief spokesman for Isis, Mohammad al-Adnani, singled out the “spiteful French” among a list of enemies in a speech calling for the group’s sympathisers to launch attacks across the west.

[bednobs]

twice in the OP. My comment was flippant, but the OP is suggesting we imprison all those who potentially wish us ill. imprisoning people for things they think, rather than the things they do seems ott to me

[Zacs-Master]

Seems bleedin impossible to me. And there's the rub.

Jourdain check the op.
