"Now I'm really confused. Who is lopping heads off in the Middle East? or is that only a furphy too?"

I believe ISIS is...and a more diabolical outfit of humans would be hard to find.

Saudi Arabia has been lopping off heads by the dozen this year...but the Saudis are apparently just hunky dory with the West....even here for the G20. In fact, on the "climate issue" they were Australia's best friend.

"The escalation of the war against the Islamic State was triggered by widespread revulsion at the gruesome beheading of two American journalists, relayed on YouTube. Since then, two British aid workers have met a similar grisly fate. And another American has been named as next in line by his terrorist captors.

Yet, for all the outrage these executions have engendered the world over, decapitations are routine in Saudi Arabia, America’s closest Arab ally, for crimes including political dissent—and the international press hardly seems to notice. In fact, since January, 59 people have had their heads lopped off in the kingdom, where “punishment by the sword” has been practiced for centuries."

I really don't care, as long as they're not Western heads. The more the merrier. I guess they're not doing anything they haven't done for the last 1700 years. As long as they leave the West alone & don't mind a bit of help. If they ask for help I'm sure the West will oblige, if they ask nicely, of course. Dunnys against $hits this week the other way around next week. All good fun as long as they keep it over there & they keep their "deranged individual men" in their own Countries.

Jayb does not like the truth. Here it is again."Islamic State is a Western creation just like Al Qaeda. The West create their own enemies as an excuse to invade countries for energy and strategic positions."

arjay, I really don't care, as long as they're not Western heads. The more the merrier. I guess they're not doing anything they haven't done for the last 1700 years. I say, let them enjoy themselves. If anyone wants to join them from Australia, great stuff. Forget about coming back though. I am most disappointed with Tony not letting them go, most disappointed indeed. In fact I'm Miffed.

By the way what are you & poirot doing back?

As long as they leave the West alone & don't mind a bit of help. if they ask nicely, I'm sure the West will oblige, of course. But only if they ask for help.

Dunnys against $hits this week, the other way around next week. All good fun for them as long as they keep it over there & they keep their "deranged individual men" in their own Countries. I really don't know why Australia is stopping these "deranged individuals" from going to join their fellow "deranged individuals."

What did he say in the Life of Brian, "We are all individuals." I particularly liked the Suicide squad. I thought that was brilliant.

Watching the Middle East is so amusing. "Always look on the bright side of life, Dumb dumb, dumb dumb." All good, ay.

misanthrope
"Everyone has a opinon about things and they are not always right or are they wrong its a opinon that's all. Please be more nice to people please."

I agree and I will try.

This ISIS business.. It's crazy if you ask me.

You've gotta ask the right questions..
why do western governments make a case for war against them, only to play it down when acts of terrorism occur on our shores?

Why do they say its not Islam?

1. I think they want to play down the hand they played in arming, funding and supporting them, (Our government supported this) and of using a divide and conquer strategy against Muslims. The prize is still Syria.
2. They are mercenaries. They are paid to fight.

I think people should take the time to listen to what Vladimir Putin said at Valdai.
Its probably the best speech I've ever heard from any world leader.

The comments from the US spokeswoman at 1:57:00 and Putin's responses are quite interesting.

This might help too.

There is a Islamic religious aspect to ISIS in that they (think they) fight for the creation of a new Islamic caliphate. But this is just a guise to get radical extremists to perform the will of western governments in the Middle East.
The leader of IS was Mossad trained, and ISIS uses a Ghengis Khan strategy in which they kill everyone and everything.
Women, children, livestock.
This way when one village hears that IS is coming, they just pack up and run for the hills.

The stuff we are experiencing from radical Islam is something the United States refer to as collateral damage.

The problem is Western nations support for the US and their imperialist ambitions.
The ultimate goal is a one world government, and the US is just a tool to achieve this and must also eventually be destroyed.
It will happen financially like the Soviet Union.

Order out of chaos.

Many years later a long serving, very senior and universally respected UN official said the following to me in his office on the 38th (top) floor of the UN’s headquarters in New York. “Zionism has corrupted everything it touched, including this organization in its infancy.” I knew, really knew, that he was reflecting the deeply held but private view of all the top international civil servants who were responsible for trying to make the world body work in accordance with the ideals and principles enshrined in its Charter and international law.
