David G, there is need to use common sense and that also means being practical.

War mongers and the like that don't want peace may want to do my finger nails as you suggest. But if the war mongers etc know they can get back into their business of selling arms or whatever in the future, they may join in a truce and peace, at least until Ebola is contained.

I am not stupid enough to think war can be averted forever.

My genuine concern is about the already devastated state of whole world ocean seafood supply and unprecedented consequences in trying to feed 7 billion people daily during any new world war, plus impact of Ebola at the same time.

A truce right now would provide a chance to contain Ebola.
A truce would give time to significantly kick re-start the economies of all nations and that could give peace more of a chance long term.

People will go to work instead of war if they can earn $100 a day take home pay, for example.

Well David G and his motley cheersquad are what I call Conspiranuts. They are also what the Socialists call "Useful Idiots".

Last night on Lateline we saw Wassim Doureihi doing what he's been doing for years; over talking, refusing to answer questions, obfuscating, lying and treating everyone watching, like they are "Useful Idiots". Well guess what? He is seen by the radical elements in the Australian Islamic Community as someone to look up to. Hizb-ut Tahrir is proscribed in many countries, it should be here. But the "Useful Idiots" and others have prevented this from happening, with their multiculti support and branding of anyone commenting as a racist.

We are not at war with a State. There is no enemy government. We are up against a bunch of marauders. Supported by the not so bright and the fanatical. Supported by the Useful idiots, whether they admit it or not. Hizb-ut Tahrir has the same goals as Isil.

Isil kills indiscriminately. They rape, pillage and plunder. They are a barbarian horde. They should be treated accordingly. People like Doureihi should also be treated accordingly, for openly supporting such a group. When will we take a stand against this stupidity. When will we rid ourselves of Multiculti and go back to Integration as a settlement policy? In today's world it is the only sensible solution.

"Isil kills indiscriminately. They rape, pillage and plunder. They are a barbarian horde. They should be treated accordingly."

T800 said this. He sounds like a Ford truck. Writes much like a Ford truck too!

Put U.S.A in place of Isil and you have another correct statement.It reads: "U.S.A kills indiscriminately. They rape, pillage and plunder. They are a barbarian horde. They should be treated accordingly."

Are people in Australia so brain-dead that they can't see that this is true?

Hi David,

So ....... the US is beheading children ? Raping and enslaving women ? Butchering thousands of captured soldiers ?

Perhaps you would be kind enough to provide some documentation ?

But thanks for trying to be Useful.

Joe

Poirot I stand corrected, thank you, a seniors moment

Loud Goose,

No...(unless you count slaughtering innocents by drone)

But they do provide around 3 billion a year to Israel (almost all of it in military aid), who recently spent a few weeks chasing and slaughtering unarmed civilians in Gaza - and who since have stepped up their efforts to relieve Palestinians of their land.
