Question Author
Ellipsis asked are we at war. Ideally this should be on a separate thread, as my post is about the broad perspective on migration, technology and ethnicity.
However.
We ie taxpayers in Britain are funding air strikes on Syrian targets and we were until very recently sending troops into Afghanistan. Both of these were alongside NATO and aren't classified as war. But for me if it quacks like a duck....
So perhaps we are actually at war, just not saying so.
Like we don't refer to 'The Troubles' as civil war in Ireland buts that's what it was.
As with Ireland, so with the Middle East: highly effective methods of terrorising the opposition, especially using car bombs and suicide attacks against civilians, show an adaptation of technology to defeat an enemy.
I haven't invented that. It is how it is.
Incidentally these new technologies of terrorism were brewed in the mess that was the British Mandate, by Zionist terrorists / freedom fighters (use your preferred choice of description).
Why would stating these facts be equated with surrendering to anyone? I don't understand where Ellipsis got this from, but as Naomi says I need to answer her point in detail then I've obliged. Insh'allah.
On the other hand, swathes of recent advancements in the western world have been made by immigrants. At present many of the UK's top business entrepreneurs are from recent migrant families. Extrapolate this backwards through time, and you get the rounded picture of both the perceived and actual threats posed by migration especially mass migration, and the advantages to host cultures.
More detail can be had on request, with the greatest of pleasure.
