When you are on the side of the Angels it is hard to conceal the blinding light of truth radiating off their Halo's :angel:

I thought we had already covered this. Those who are pro EU will find opinion and reports supporting their view and those that want Brexit will do the same providing an alternative view and both sides will usually dismiss the others points come what may. In this instance you provided one...

Summed it up nicely. I especially liked this bit .. This is how it goes in Europe now. Everything barely worth saying will be said endlessly. And the only things that are worth saying won’t be said. What are those things? Among other things the fact that we are living with the consequences...

I'm as much in the dark as you are obviously. But the man who chaired the cobra meetings during the 7/7 attacks overseeing the response of the Met Police, MI5,MI6 and other agencies doesn't see it as a problem nor does the retired head of MI6. Britain is Europe’s leader in intelligence and...

It may give us some superficial comfort to believe these people are mad or relatively stupid but the reality is somewhat different. One of the most disturbing and dangerous aspects of Islamic terrorism is how it seems to convince otherwise supposedly intelligent people. Almost half (48.5%) of...

So we possibly wouldn't have the same speed of access as countries at the heart of the EU like France and Belgium? .... mmmmmmmm. If it ever transpired that high security information relevant to UK national security was being seriously delayed endangering our citizens just because we didn't...

Stupidity, sense of grievance, boredom, belief in Islamic superiority and numerous other reasons all facilitated by belief in Islam. Why do you think they want to kill us?

The vast majority of Muslims grow up with parents who tell them Islam is the one true faith and should be followed or suffer the consequences I mentioned in my previous post. This opens up a minority to radicalisation from Imams who preach a version of Islam which it could be argued is as likely...

I think your first important question is partly answered by your second comment. Unfortunately many people don't really 'choose' to believe in a religion. They are indoctrinated from an early age and grow up in communities where rejection of their religion has numerous negative consequences...

I know but I needed cheering up .... a bit of wishful thinking is sometimes good for the soul. My usual response to that post would have gone something like this. On just one day in 2001 nearly 3000 people were murdered 6000 + injured. If Islamist terrorists had the capability to carry out...

I needed to read that to give me some hope after yet another incredibly depressing horrific day. Fingers crossed your analysis is correct.

Two major attacks on European capital cities in 5 months, numerous foiled plots elsewhere, serious societal tensions in numerous countries .. I'm not sure where we go from here but it's not looking good.

I see the French Prime Minister has declared 'we' (europe) are at war. Well we have no chance of winning if we can't control the tap that has a direct bearing on the threat level. Both on the continent and at home.

Unfortunately not all terrorists are on a watch list but most if not all of those who carried out many of the pre Brussels attacks were EU citizens (free movement here). We do know the Head of Interpol estimated thousands of terrorists trained in Syria and elsewhere have now entered Europe via...

It's obviously an issue which has a direct impact on our security. I can see how some people may view this as not the time and place for looking at the wider ramifications but the discussion seems to have moved in this direction also I'm not sure when this period of respectful reflection finishes.

Which is a 'bit' of a problem for us as these people, many who are EU citizens have a right to come here with little if any checks (show EU passport). The same applies to the numerous growing Muslim communities across Europe.

Grim and depressingly predictable. Sadly it's only going to get worse in the coming months and years.
