Exaggerating the terror genie: reflections on a fake sheik : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 17/12/2014

While the Sydney holdup says absolutely nothing about a terror 'wave', it is being read as part of a current, with Australia being caught in it.

MONIS VICTIM OF OUR SOCIETY!

Check out Haigh's OLO article today where he basically says Monis was a victim of our society. http://www.onlineopinion.com.au/view.asp?article=16957

Haigh says Monis was suffering from post traumatic stress (PTS) and "This neglect represents a significant failure in the duty of care on the part of Australian authorities."

We have the right so say what we think of this gutless view at: http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=16957

Yes Suseonline the hatred spilling forth from OLO writers is beyond belief, where is their so called Christian values, a broader picture of the whole world must be taken into account , as poverty, unemployment develops there is going to be more demonstrations and killings between the haves and have nots, Governments know this is going to happen, that is why they are making it harder for the ordinary citizen to demonstrate, possibly if demonstrations of the Vietnam war were to take place now, bullets would be the order of the day, hatred develops quickly, it is human nature, you can tell this by the letter writers here, I do not condone what happened in Sydney nor do I condone Bush invading Iraq.

James O'Neill: "One of the pities of an incident such as has just happened in Martin Place is that it gives an excuse for all the ignorant bigots to pour forth their bile about the Islamic religion, demanding, inter alia, that they renounce Islam if they are to be considered true Aussies."

Have I said Muslims must entirely renounce their religion? Where? You consider yourself a voice of reason, yet you are against a renunciation of parts of the Quran that target you to die? Why is it bad form to raise this aspect of the Quran? Political correctness? I'm not going to be PC'ed out of the way by your name-calling, but I do admit to being a bigot in relation to any ideology that wants me dead. You must be a better person than I as you are more accommodating, eh?

I'll ask you the same question as the others. Would the events at Endeavour Hills and Martin Place have occurred without incitement by ISIS? Answer this honestly and quietly to yourself, then apply your superior reasoning skills from there.

It's very easy to attack those of a Muslim background - because there is a "book" people can throw at these people. Words can be quoted from and assessments then can be made.

People of a "Anglo Saxon" backround (I don't like the term - as there is no such country), but I am part Scottish, French, British, German and Australian) - so I and a lot of other Australian's can't be sent back anywhere, in that context and those with no religious view (in particular) can easily stand a "high moral ground".

Many comments I have read since the Martin Place incident, have been nothing short of ridiculous, (like the Senator calling for less gun regulation). Many have no well researched base to them and anyone who questions these people can be attacked (like being a left wing extremist), when I'm not, and are forced to defend their credentials.

It's a very clever debating technique by the "deniers" of the issue to "cop out" and not have to recognise that when it comes to down to any religion or society in general - each and every person is different.

I know this for example. When a Church of Jesus Christ pair came to my front door - I spoke about vegetarianism (being one myself) - and found one of the pair was also vegetarian. I was amazed. I didn't expect this.

Not everyone is the same - and those who want hate please return this book of your favorite author to your local library. Stop promoting the "hate card" as it's not helping anyone, particularly the victims in this case, or the investigation occurring at present.

Joseph Goebbels : “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

We have to realise that only the extreme elements of Islam is being used by our elites to divide and conquer what little democracy remains in the West. We are being trained to hate all Muslims but like Christians ,they are not a homogenous group. It was just a little while ago we had the inquisitions and mass murder from Papal authorities. They helped the Nazis escape justice after WW2.

Our Central banking dynasty goes back over 300 yrs with the European and British Monarchies playing a central role in this march to global governance or "New World Order" by the elites for the elites and no rights for us.

How powerful would you be if you could create from nothing,all the money as debt for our Govts to function ? Central Bankers have had enormous power for a long time but now in this era,they want absolute power over us and our Govts.

China and Russia are breaking away from this evil system with the BRICS trading and banking alliance, this is why they are being demonised.

Our central bankers are desperate,this is why WW3 beckons.
