Brussels Bombing
-
Lahore bombing claimed by one group, saying they were targeting Christians. <br><br><a class="bbc_url" href="http://www.smh.com.au/world/multiple-fatalities-following-explosion-at-public-park-lahore-20160327-gnrz21.html">http://www.smh.com.au/world/multiple-fatalities-following-explosion-at-public-park-lahore-20160327-gnrz21.html</a><br><br><br>
Yet saying they were sending a message to the governor:<br><blockquote class="ipsBlockquote"><p>
The target was Christians," a spokesman for the faction, Ehsanullah Ehsan, said.<br><br>
"We want to send this message to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif that we have entered Lahore."<br><br>
"He can do what he wants but he won't be able to stop us ... our suicide bombers will continue these attacks."<br></p></blockquote> -

<p>Predictably Neo nazis have<strong> been holding rallies </strong>and had the water cannons turned on them. No problem with the authorities doing that but I hope next time feral Muslims hold a march demanding sharia law they get the exact same treatment .</p>

<p>You got a link for this story? I've been searching and the most recent I can find is December 2015.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ok, finally found one ... Google is odd these days.</p>

<p>Looks like the bold isn't strictly correct and they "hijacked a peace march/vigil". </p> -
<p>Interesting article posted in the Herald today.</p>

<p>Seems one of the suicide bombers was a well trained and used bomb maker. The experts generally cant understand or explain why he was used as a suicide bomber though.</p> -
<p>Saw some of the neo nazi gear this morning - bunch of white blokes moving into the area around where the memorial was set up with the piles of wasted money on flowers and such.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One old white bloke tried to intervene with the young white blokes and got punched in the head for his trouble. Some of the neonazi chaps fell backward into the memorial. Up to that point the police had been trying to just keep them separate with riot shields. But understandably, they went to the water cannon from that point. Its pretty fucking tense, and all the coppers over there are stretched, and under pressure for being seen to miss the leadup to this event and Paris.</p>

<p>Fuck yes. If anyone comes down the main street of my city preaching hate then send them packing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Problem is, if you overreact, they take it as a sign of legitimacy. You can ask for Sharia Law all you want - go do it in an empty stadium somewhere (pay the appropriate hire fee) and shout your little heart out.</p> -

<p>Seriously, fuck religious extremists. Let's throw all them sacks of shit into a feral lion pit and see how fucking brave they are.</p>

<p>They're not human anymore, and shouldn't be treated as such.</p>

<p>In this context no, I find it just western appeasement when people refuse to criticize Islam specifically and instead blame all religion. </p> -

hopefully next time these losers decide to March demanding sharia law the authorities get plenty video of the losers and then break out the water cannons and batons . The way sharia law views lbgt people and women must surely amount to hate speech .<br><br>
As far as the Neo nazis go this us just the start for them I'd say, they'll be taking it out on the Muslim population next . Weak targets too, just like the Muslim ferals do . -

<br>
Yeah never going to happen while secular versus religious law produces conflict.<br><br>
Some survey I was reading about (maybe a Euro country?) was used by haters as proof Muslims wanted Sharia to take over their country. The second question was "would it apply to non-Muslims?" To which a large majority said No.<br><br>
But that is still going to cause issues, obviously. <br><br><br><br>
So, more arrests in Brussels, but in Pakistan they must be wondering what their strategy is going to look like now. Assuming the Talib and other extremists would just hide in the mountains isn't apparently a thing any more.<br><br>
Syrian forces, supported by Russian air strikes, have retaken Palmyra. ISIL lost something like 400 dead and military sources are calling it a significant blow on three fronts:<br><br>
Logistically - loss of manpower and munitions<br>
Tactically - Palmyra was a shortcut in the region<br>
Propaganda - not a good look for a Caliphate that said it was doing God's work I suppose -
Pakistan has this on its doorstep to deal with <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waziristan'>https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waziristan</a><br><br>
It's hard to feel much sympathy for their secret service and government when they get up to stuff like this <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Indian_embassy_bombing_in_Kabul'>https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Indian_embassy_bombing_in_Kabul</a><br><br>
If they like sharia law so much the obvious solution is to fuck off to a country that already has it . -

At this point I'd happily reach for Baron's bacon sandwich plan... Water, and bacon sandwiches. Nothing but. -
<p>I was amused/irked last night at a BBC reporter on the news. He described some protesters as 'thugs'.... probably quite correct. Did not seem like they were being very pleasant. But since when has it been ok for the BBC to use pejorative terms like that? Do they refer to ISIS as women and women murdering Islamic Asshats? .. also quite true.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The bias at the BBC is getting worse.</p> -

<p>I dunno about bias as such. Leftitst PC bollocks all the way I'd agree with. Can't be seen not to cheerlead for the underprivileged. However that might be perceived by this in their ivory towers.</p>
