By Bruce Haigh, published 12/9/2014The lemming-like haste to follow Americans into not one but possibly two new wars is as unwise as it is unseemly.

Have to agree with loudmouth, and can only add a quote from Scots poet Robbie burns; Facts are cheils tha dinna whing!

Thank Christ for that.
What's your alternative, Pete ? Apart from being 'a good man doing nothing' ? Joe Posted by Loudmouth, Sunday, 14 September 2014 2:12:45 PM

Hi Loudmouth
As a fellow surfer in Team Australia I'm all for it mate. The more troops and weapons and bombing from a great height in Iraq the more IS can see the moral error of its ways. Also all this Australian warring on the Muslims of IS in Iraq will convince Muslim youth in Australia of? To? No connection of course - Tony said so.

ISIS have just released a new video of the beheading of another White social justice warrior in Syria, all three of the western men beheaded so far have been first and formost social justice activists and the obvious point is that Jihadists don't care if these people are on their side, they're not impressed by a commitment to social justice.
The "Left" obviously do fear their own deaths at the hands of Muslims, all this posturing is just an attempt to ward off the reality of their situation. I'm reminded of a story from 1945 about a group of German women who had been communists before 1933 and who rushed to greet the Soviet soldiers entering Berlin, their old Communist Party cards in hand. Of course they and their daughters were swiftly gang raped by the Soviet "Frontoviks" then repeatedly savaged by the rear echelon troops to whom they again appealed for shelter on the basis of their credentials as loyal socialists.
I doesn't matter to the Jihadist what you say and do, whether you support them or not, they will attack the weak points of a society first and the people who try to suck up to them or beg for mercy quickly find themselves enslaved or doing their bidding.
When fighting between Muslims and Europeans breaks out in Paris or Brussels or London the SJW's and "bleeding hearts", the Leftists and the Anarchists are going to be exterminated if they get in the middle, this is their real fear and at present they think that the Muslims will show them mercy in spite of all indications to the contrary, their fate will be that of those wretched Communist women in Berlin.
