Explain that one to me..And while you're at it.....explain to me and the rest of the forum why we even need to constantly be aware of a person who may or may not be out to kill us for no other reason other than just being an American. The best minds in this country can't identify these scumbags or stop them. (Boston Marathon) I just don't understand what it will take to eliminate this cancer from our way of life....

So many gullible people are still under the impression that 9-11 was not a false flag attack.

We can point fingers at other groups all day long but the simple truth is that right now, in the 21st century, it's radical Islam that is the most violent and ruthless organization out there. We need to face today's threats objectively.
Yes … We do best ALWAYS to meet contemporary threats objectively, i.e., without hysteria and/or bigotry ...

Unfortunately, there are a whole lotta Muslims from other countries who apparently are not followers of the Cat Stevens style of Islam.
Yusuf Islam mellowed considerably from when he first accepted Islam. Like many new reverts he began quite radical but in time learned that Islam stresses moderation.

So the 9-11 attacks weren't not a true false flag operation … ???
But … What if it was just so cleverly performed as to make people THINK that it wasn't not a true false flag deal … ??? How would we know … ???

The band was not a threat either. The draw was the name "The Eagles of Death Metal" to a bunch of people that hate us.. okay? ( My opinion, of-course) Maybe as in- draw two lines in the sand and see who is the real Eagle is--when it was all about who it was that was suppose to separate in the SKY? Maybe for virgins is the code? There is certainly one pattern I've noticed with the two and both are EAGLES/PLANES/FLYING and yeah, I had a friend that died in the Oklahoma City Bombing and we are simply not a free country anymore. Get it... and that radical was a white guy

Anything else?.

Turkey claimed to have stopped a copycat plot on the same day as the Paris attack.

Up to 20 participated in the Paris plot with most of the arrests centered in the Brussels, Belgium suburb of Molenbeek.

I agree.

Is it hysterical or bigoted to point out that ISIS is a massive, extremely well funded international organization whose goal is to establish a radical Islamic caliphate via conquest and terrorism, and to destroy any country or individual who doesn't go along with this plan?

But Kathryn, not ALL Muslims are like this! Why are you so worried about what is a small minority?? I KNOW plenty of Muslims who are peaceful and do not support this. I am friends with some, and they are wonderful people.



Answers we have gotten so far.

It is hysterical bigotry to equate "Islam" with "ISIS" … or al Qa'eda … or Hamas and Hezbollah …
