Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
To add to previous... They may find it harder this time to discredit her, as according to the press our benevolent PM helped to finance his own polling money some say to over a million dollars. However as his reported personal worth is in excess of 200 million it would be no skin off his nose. We wont know until February when it has to be disclosed by law, putting extra money into polling is supposed to be illegal also. Maybe is why he is so intense about not taxing higher wage earners, and must wish he lived in England where he may have got a knighthood for donating so much money to charity, even though it was to himself.

Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
Terrorism is the war fought by cowrads afraid to show their face. No other so called religeon acts in such a manner, not one of the so called moderates with it decries this act.
Border control is the one thing so far that has kept us here in Oz relatively safe, for now, but the day will come when one of the locals cracks the sh 1 ts and all hell lets loose.
I think some of the heads of EU should be brought to task for this atrocity as it was they who lobbied for open borders. How many more fifth columnists are there just waiting in the wings for the word from somewhere to go for it?
As long as the current system of global governance continues the situation will not change. The boys club, and that is what international leaders are in, will continue the current path so maybe the likes of Trump, as mad as he may sound, are what we need.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
I have had a quick look at the Koran available on Google. And whilst not being a religious person myself, reading snatches of same is impossible to not compare it with the bible and the Jewish Holy book. If can be believed the Koran is only 1400 years old in its present form. They all refer to Abraham as the usual when the written word was proclaimed. We all learned at an early age of the fire and brimstone contained in our own Old testament which is also prevailent in the other books. The only difference is that we stopped burning witches about the late or early 17th or 18th centurys. Certain sections of what must be called true believers as there is no way that I can see are ever going to give away their beliefs would have to be in my opinion quarantined away from other sections of the community. When ISIL started I said ok give them a certain area and then enclose them with barbed wire. Theres many a true word spoken in jest. Their Shari law is in no way conducive to western man made laws, so the truth is there is no place for them in our society. No matter how the bleeding hearts put it they do not have the answer. These people believe in their own laws and that is the only answer they will accept. So the only truthful answer is keep them out. The bleeding hearts will direct everyones vision onto the children, those same children have every likelihood of becoming killing machines in 10 years time. Lets for once be honest and make some hard decisions and spare us all the political waffle. JWS

Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
There was a bleeding heart on BBC news the other morning saying that we should not tar all moo slims with the same brush, they are a peace loving people the same as their religion which promotes love (you couldn't make it up!) and that other people other than mm slims had the same agenda. Now I personally have not read about any Christian, Jew, Hindu etc etc, strapping on suicide vests, blowing up planes, beheading innocent hostages etc etc, nor have I heard any Imam expressing sorrow or regret for what happened in NICE in their name, could someone adise me which paper to buy to read about these other diabolical religions

Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
In most other cases where there is life threatening diseases one contains it either keeping contact clear or other means of isolation. What did they do with leprosy in the past or the Black Plague or even scurvey. Quarantied it until found a cure. It will go down in history that the most stupid things that the EU did was open borders, not only for the admittance of terrorism but also for the open path of various diseases. When one thinks back that we were only allowed into countries with the production of medical certs. showing we had at least current papers showing had received jabs for Cholera, smallpox. and yellow fever and probably more so today, and that stupid women saying you are all welcome please come she deserves a D minus on her report card for sanity alone.

HI John.
I doubt Isil knew anything about it until it happened I think the bloke was just a nutcase, he was jealous of the people having fun, while he has a stuffed up marriage.

Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
They are all nutcases. I think the only attraction or the main one at least to these younger generation of no hopers is the actual dominance they have over women, and their beliefs that it is all legal to how they depict themselves. If ever there was a case for Homophobia they have it. They break the laws of whatever country they are domiciled in with immunity.Give them a piece of Desert and present it to them and see how they get on, see if they can compete with what the Jews did with their Homeland. They are a blight on any society and the sooner the world as is realizes this the better. Donald Trump for President I say, action not words is what the world is waiting for. JWS

Re: Bastille Day Tragedy
Here in Melboure on Sunday there was a rally to support the black people killed lately in USA. The theme, 'Black lives matter'. It was interesting to note that amongst the crowd a number of women who by their dress would no doubt be of the 'odd' faith, sorry not allowed to use the name, but when one was asked, 'surely all lives matter' refused to answer.
