    Good. So you agree that your "Spiegel" source doesn't substantiate your claims.

    Two of those claims are utterly false, btw; you also made a third claim saying they are all, yes all, petty criminals, which is likewise bullshit. The language bit is true for a small minority in the first generation, and that can indeed be problematic, but you're overstating it -- in fact, you're ridiculously 'betting that not any (!!) of them speak their country's language', placing it in the opposite of its actual causal context, and ludicrously connecting it to Islam and/or terrorism.

    It's pretty sad that giving you the benefit of the doubt = assuming you're drunk every time you make a post.

    The trouble is, European leaders have known for a long time that they utterly failed at integrating Muslims. They assumed they would self-integrate just like the Jews did, without considering that European Jews spent centuries becoming adaptable, so that by the time anyone was really paying attention they could fit in anywhere. The only other example Europe had for such integration was the US, but the US was assimilating Spanish speaking Christians (like they have in Spain) and Asians. Even the Eastern Europeans have noted that Asians, such as Thais and Vietnamese are great at showing up and starting a business and and working the locals. Some Muslims also do this, but a great many do not because they get sucked back into Muslim culture because they're stuck in a Muslim ghetto, or get all fired up about insults to Islam.

    The TV journalists generally are. But with print and radio you take your chances.

    I've long given up on correcting every false statement in your posts, but I'll just note in passing that distinguishing Jewish from Muslim minorities by saying the latter live in what you cannot resist to actually call "ghettos" is an especially nice touch, as universe-warping goes.

    This is the same gturner who joked about sending Syrina children to gas chambers.

    The use of the term ghetto isn't unjust though. The fact us that particularly in places like Parisian suburbs, you have large concentrations of Muslim and immigrant communities that have largely been left to themselves and not been encouraged to integrate. Therefore you do effectively have ghettos, and it' as a result of these areas that the young Muslims of today are more susceptible to radicalisation because they lead a life generally more insular than they perhaps would have but for such "ghettos" existing. For all gturners lying, acknowledging that there are areas in Europe like that isn't one of them.

    I did not joke about sending Syrian children to gas chambers. I joked about sending Muslim migrant children in general. I would never single out children by nationality. That would be bigoted.

    A migrant "child" demanded free candy from a Swedish aid worker (Alexandra Mezher) and when she refused, he murdered her. That indicates that it would be easy to lure young Muslim migrants into former Nazi labor camps with free candy. :)

    Migrant "child" in a blanket. He was charged as an adult because he's probably in his 20's.

    Of course. But that's so deeply hidden in the racist bullshit as to be unrecognisable.

    But there's nothing inherently wrong with bigotry. I'm rather disinclined toward Nazis, even though I have a Nazi cousin executed for war crimes. I just don't like the whole Nazi way of life, as fun filled and progressive as it is, because they were trying too hard to shape the future toward modernism and I'm kind of stuck in my ways. I like the old capitalist order, where Jews, Indians, and even Welsh people can be what they want.

    Many call that bigotry, but if that's bigotry then I'm happy to be a bigot.

    I also dislike Islamic supremacism, the traditional and deeply shared Islamic belief that Islam is absolutely true and that Muslims will rule the world and non-Muslims are lower than cattle, and that Muslims are free to enslave or murder them. That indeed, the killing of non-Muslims in the best pathway to heaven for utter shit bags whose lives have been a failure, and leading utter shitbags in the mass slaughter of innocent people is the highest calling a Muslim can answer.

    This is fallout from founding a religion upon a person who, in a civilized society, would have been executed as a worthless murdering child raping horse thieving criminal on par with Ted Bundy or Charles Manson. Muhammed was human vermin who founded a religion based on spreading the value of human vermin. There was enough human vermin in Arabia to let him build an army of vermin and conquer, rape, and enslave all the Arab peoples. Those people, a thousand years later, remain enslaved.

    The vast majority, and I do mean vast majority, of migrants claiming to be children are actually adults. Some as old as 35. These fraudsters are trying to fraudulently take advantage of a law which says minors cannot be deported so you have huge numbers of adults falsely claiming to be minors.

    That is reality. You are talking to people who like to ignore reality and misuse words which they don't even know the meaning of. It is just buzzwords to them which they try to use as a substitute for facts and logic.

    Calling you a bigot is not a misuse of words. You're one of the most vulgar and dangerous bigots this board has ever seen, and among the worst I have encountered.

    You've got to be kidding. Dinner has a problem with Islamists. Many of the rest are potential Islamists, always just one coup away from sharia. He also has a problem with people popping in the street. That's about it.

    On the other hand, I despise the Welsh and their crazy place names and inability to use the alphabet like normal people. I despise the Dutch, their stupid little shoes, and their tulip mania. Other than the enlightenment, engineering, the steam engine, and the deep fried Mars bar, have the Scots done anything to merit their continued existence? Their culture peaked with Sheena Easton. Someone should tell them their glory days are over. The rest of Europe is much the same, backwards, primitive people who flock to either medieval fairs or techno-pop concerts so they can for a while forget the misery of their pointless existence at the end of the age of secular Christian Europe. Their children will convert to Islam and despise European culture even more than Europeans formerly despised it. It will die, little remembered and soon forgotten except for a few surviving Youtube videos from the Scorpions and ABBA.

    The Middle East is on fire, over 11,000 killed in terrorist attacks just this year, and France has pretty much entered a permanent state of emergency that will last for decades, if not centuries. There is a problem.

    Meanwhile Erdogan's Islamists are attacking Alevi neighborhoods and Christian churches.

    Tweet with video of armed attack on Alevis

    Alevis are Shias who strongly backed Attaturk and continue to support real democracy. They are thought to make up about 25% of Turkey's population.

    But if Erdogan really wants to get to the heart of the plotters, he needs to purge the Armenians. :mob:

    IOW, Muslims? Evil, evil Muslims?

    Shouldn't you be happy they are

    good Muslim is a dead one, right?

    No, there are good Muslims, but they usually get killed by other Muslims who insist the good Muslims are evil because Muhammed inverted the whole good/evil thing so that killing people in brutal ways for stupid reasons was good and righteous, while not killing them was being disobedient to Allah.
