Rides on the coattails of conflicts and American foreign policy so he can sell books. He's a sick fcuker

it don't take much for a woman to be accused of prostitution in the middle east

a woman in a t-shirt and jeans would be spat on and called a whore in Cairo

Must I Godwin this thread to prove that American intervention isn't necessarily a bad thing? If the Islamic State problem escalates to the point that they're an actual state with a strong army and invades neighbouring countries to cleanse it of its impurities, then something needs to be done.

If you're trying to say that America saved the world from Hitler, you'd not only be trying to "Godwin" the thread, you'd be plain wrong too.

Good old Chomsky demonstrates his irrelevance again.
1 is working just fine at the moment. ISIS pushed back from Kobane by Kurds/yanks, SA seems to have turned them over a few times, Yazidis issue "alleviated" if you will.

More hand wringing of course and calls for abstention in accordance with 3, will result in 2, necessitating the need for a bigger 1 eventually.

What's needed is more 1 with regard to an eventual 3 for the region.


Or as you'd say "FFS, so much fail in that statement"

...and you continue to fail. Well done!

Yep, that's it blame it all on the west, totally the west's problem.

I haven't bothered with the rest of your post, because the opening gambit was just fücking stupid and going on your previous shite, it isn't going to get any better.

This is really sad actually.

Obviously it doesn't compare to their acts of violence against human beings but terrible nonetheless.

If intelligent, critical thinking, is an indication of a "sick fcuker" to you, that goes a long way to explaining the drivel you post on here.

iconoclasm in all its different incarnations has been around since forever...and not only in islam, though they have been pretty good at destroying all things non-islamic in the past few centuries...wonder when they attempt to blow up the sphinx and the pyramids, really only a question of time, clearly, both will have to go...

Lots of women should go to fight them, just watched a documentary showing Kurdish army battling them. They have lots of female fighters and ISIS run if overpowered. Isis believe dying on the battlefield gets them 72 virgins in heaven, but if they are killed by a woman they dont get to heaven. The Kurdish female fighters do a calling chant on advance and Isis scarper!

You're right, it doesn't compare to their murderous activity so far, but in some minor way it's more shocking. For example, I refuse to allow Sky News to sanitise international conflict. So I seek out footage of what's actually happening on the ground in these places. So over the years I've become well used to seeing detailed images of the most horrendous stuff imaginable. A consequence of that is that you develop a type of immunity. You're always disgusted, but you're not always shocked. However, I was genuinely shocked by what I seen today. I'm simply not used to seeing people desecrate out shared inheritance in such a wanton fashion. None of us are. It's a new new type of assault on humanity.

Well, as your pal Chomsky said, you can generally, do one of three things:

1. You can alleviate the problem.
2. You can make the problem worse
3. You can do nothing.

The "west" doesn't have a great track record at No.1 and it's actions usually lead to No.2, especially in the Middle East.

So, perhaps the best course of action the west can do for the time being is No.3.

The best course of action can never be determined by looking at the past. It is determined by the situation as it presents itself, the past can only serve to inform.

ISIS is not Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Grenada, Haiti, Philippines, Libya, the Falklands, or any other situation that the West has found itself concerned with.

You care about statues and paintings more than the innocent men, women and children? And then you claim to have the moral high ground :rolleyes:

The world won't care until they actually do something that will effect a big, powerful country like America or England.
