    Are ISIS the only people to use child soldiers this way?
    It happens in Africa also - Boko Haram and other African groups.
    Why do you ask?

    Defending a woman having her child holding up a death threat it's quite a strange way of defending them as non radicals.


    Where have I defended them?


    Again, a very strange defending of muslims, by suggesting there are others just as bad as them.
    And to answer your question, there may be others, and Europe should be wary of all of them.

    And again, where have I defended them?

    In this thread and others we have had posters say

    The majority of Muslims support the likes of ISIS

    That Muslims should be vetted on entering the country.

    If a Muslim commits any crime they should be deported.

    If a Muslim commits a crime.then they, thier parents and thier siblings should all be deported (it doesn't matter if they were born in Ireland)

    And the ridiculous suggestion that any Muslims immigrants should be chaperoned by an unpaid volunteer for ten years to help them assimilate to "Irish culture" :rolleyes:

    Wether you would like to admit it or not there are some posters in these threads that have a hatred of Muslims and all things Islamic.

    I've never seen you or anyone else mention them, I guess those children being forced to kill are not as scary as De Mooslims right?

    Right here, by saying that it's not that bad to have a child hold up a death threat because he doesn't understand it anyway.
    And in general by pointing out that there's already home grown fundamentalism in the western world so we should have no big issue with importing even more, no matter id it's even more dangerous.

    People have every right and good reason to be wary of the increasing population/impact of islam on Europe in light of almost world wide civil unrest and attacks in recent years.
    This ridiculous argument that you have to have spoken out on every injustice that ever happened in the world to speak about a certain one is puerile imo.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,538 ✭✭✭jmreire


    OK, so it's only islam/Muslims when it suits your agenda :pac:

    Nope. Both building bombings were then and still are officially the activities of Chechen Muslim seperatists. The 3rd attempt was not an actual bombing attempt, again officially, it was to test the building security.
    So officially these two actual bombings were all the work of Chechen Muslim seperatists, and the 3rd was a security check, to make sure that the security system put in place in apartment blocks after the two previous bombings was working.
    However outside agencys believe it was all planned by Boris Yeltsin to propel his protege Vladimir Putin into power.
    And in the 3 years 2010 to 2013, there were a total of 4 bombings. ( your post ) When you consider the thousands killed and the mass destruction in both the Chechen wars, and the level of anger that exists there, thats pretty tight control on terrorism in my book anyway. And in the Caucasus, there is still lots of unrest, it has not gone away, and thats why I deliberately excluded Chechnya in my original post. Chechens themselves are not convinced that the last war is finished yet.

    But they are De Mooslims,..Boko Haram are affiliated to isis ( since the most of them got kicked out of Syria,,they have been cropping up in many places, like in Afghanistan or any countrys where there is unrest that they can exploit. ) So far in Nigeria, the death toll is 30'000, and 3 million people displaced. They rose to fame ( if thats the correct word...) after they kidnapped nearly 300 girls from a school. But they had been active long before that. They want a pure Islamic state, hence the name "Boko Haram" which means western teachings forbidden. Because its in Africa, it doesn't get the headlines it would receive if it was happening in this part of thne world. But they are Islamic terrorists, pure and simple and dont mind using child soldiers. And like isis, al queada etc, they totally disregard the wishes of their fellow Muslims, who want nothing to do with them or their version of Islam.

    Nor have I seen you pour your heart out for Africans. Ah well maybe one day ;)

    This thread isn't about African child soldiers but feel free to start a thread on that.
    This thread is about ISIS who inspired or ordered Jamel to kill Stephanie*.




    *the victim in case her name eludes you.

    I don't see why bringing Islamists to Ireland will benefit the population.
    Some may disagree but I'd rather than Ireland remains safe than we risk the lives of citizens for some leftist agenda.

    Tbh, I am baffled some people will want to bring homophobes, sexists and antisemites into a country that just recently have throw off the shackles of religion and allowed same sex marriages.
    Why do these people want to revert to darker days? It's a mystery.

    I don't see what someone's religion has to Do with it? Surely their circumstances, ability to work, need for migration are the important factors?
    Do you think the millions of Muslims believe exactly what you have listed above?


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,838 ✭✭✭✭Danzy


    The difference is the child probably doesn't even understand the sign he is holding whereas the woman clearly knows what she is saying.


    You probably see nothing wrong with these placards either

    120807100010-rottman-westboro-protest-live-video.jpg

    Are you adding the Westborough Church to those you defend??

    Going by the photos which I think was if them, that said they might be Islamic, their signs wouldn't raise an eyebrow outside any mainstream mosque.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,246 ✭✭✭✭Dyr


    When was the last time Islam/Muslims affected your life?

    When was the last time Christianity/christians affected your life?

    I guarantee the first has never affected you

    I guarantee the second has affected you


    But hey.....De Mooslims are gonna get us all :rolleyes:

    From slim straws to no straws at all. :)

    In Ireland in 2016 an Imam invited gays to a meal. But..
    members of the Muslim Youth Council of Ireland had questioned his invitation to LGBT people to take part in the Iftar.
    “How can you do this? Are you condoning homosexuality?”

    You think their comments had nothing to do with their religion?

    I think you need to ask your Muslims friends about their views about gay people.

    Bambi, I guarantee you if he ever had the misfortune to come in contact with a radical Islamist, ( or any other like minded posters on here) and assuming he / they survived the encounter, you would see a a massive turn around in their opinions. But because its Ireland, and we have yet to see any such attacks here, they feel safe and secure. I hope that their secure bubble never bursts.

    There's plenty wrong and the woman is obviously deranged, but at least she's not abusing her child.

    It occurs to me to ask: what IS an "Islamist" in your mind?
    Tbh, I am baffled some people will want to bring homophobes, sexists and antisemites into a country that just recently have throw off the shackles of religion and allowed same sex marriages.

    Because people make the stupid crass generaisation based on religion. **** like this is what makes you look racist.

    You say "a country that just recently have throw off the shackles of religion" and yet what proportion of it said it ws Catholic in the last census? This would mean - by your logic - that the country is very much STILL homphobic and sexist.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Millions dont, but some do, and even a tiny minority can cause major damage, and, as recent events in Euriope have shown, this minority is active in Europe. And their actuvityt is religion driven. But aside from every thing else, why are we allowing unrestrcted immigration anyway when it has been proven not to have been a success elsewhere?

    Female Police officer stabbed to death in France. The attacker shouted Allahu Akbar before carrying out the attack.

    We don't know the motivation for the attack. :rolleyes:

    We don't allow unrestricted immigration.
    Not sure where people are getting this idea?
