"Grateful,
OK is the IS magazine "Dabiq" a reliable enough source of information on the Jihad against the West? I read every issue online in English and every exhortation the writers make is extensively footnoted by Koranic scripture."

so what? See my previous post

"I couldn't care less what Western academics and their students think, as Bazz said, you're irrelevant,"

OMG! This is shocking news

"soldiers, mercenaries and vigilantes are the ones who'll deal with the terrorists, just as they do in Iraq and Syria"

Yes vigilantes will solve the problem!

Does anyone here know how to sustain a polite and well reasoned discourse?

A polite discourse isn't going to produce the solutions we need, we live in a world of multiple polarities and multiple truths, pick a side and join the Jihad or Crusade, Great Patriotic Struggle or whatever milieu suits your temperament.
The overthrow of Liberal, globalist hegemony is the goal, it's universalism and universal conceptions of truth are the enemy so exceptionalism, racism, nationalism and protectionism are the tactics needed to overthrow the old order and usher in a new age.

Grateful,

Firstly please don't misquote me.

Secondly, the vast majority of ISIS members 99% are native muslims who know the Quran in detail, there is a small smattering of recent converts who are not as well versed.

Thirdly, Islam teaching is no more homogeneous than Christianity, and as in the bible, the Quran has many calls for violence against non believers, apostates etc, and the more radical interpretations (many founded on wahhabism from Saudi Arabia) are driving the savagery, and even outside the radicals, most Imams in the west incl in Australia, while not actually calling for Jihad, are saying little to nothing against it. I have yet to hear one Imam state that Jihadis are going to hell.

To claim that the radicals murdering women and children on an industrial scale have nothing to do with Islam is weapons grade stupidity by fuzzy wuzzy left whingers that see their dream of a peaceful multicultural society going down in flames, and who are trying desperately to pretend that the problems don't exist.

Shadow Minister, who sees Multiculturalism going down in flames?
Australia continues to do very well with our multicultural society.

Why would we let a bunch of violent terrorists of any nationality or religion dictate to us what sort of society we should have?
Wouldn't that be giving in to their brand of terror and thus lead to more terrorist activity?

The people of the world have already mixed together, so the horse has well and truly bolted. It is too late to say we don't want foreigners in Australia, way too late.
We need to weed out and knock off the terrorists amongst us...and I believe we are doing it fairly well here in Australia, don't you?

SOL,

I wasn't just talking about Aus. I think that in Europe, Asia and the middle east that multiculturalism is less than a spectacular success.

Yes I agree Shadow Minister, but I don't know what the answer is for Europe at present.

Certainly, calling for even more division in the population by suggesting they 'ban' all Muslim immigration, or worse, 'throw out' all Muslims just in case they might be terrorists, is not going to help.
More division will certainly cause even more terrorists to evolve.
