Xenophobia is not the answer : Comments

By Dilan Thampapillai, published 22/7/2016

Yet, it beggars belief that anybody would ascribe the actions of radical terrorists to every Muslim.

My dear Lego...

I think Lego, we all have a dangerous habit of personifying abstractions, and forgetting they are only abstractions. You speak of Muslims as an homogeneous whole. Not true! You judge all Muslims based on the acts of a few renegade youth, bent on self destruction: not all that dissimilar to many youth of Australia. The difference I see is Muslim youth tend to "explode" with often dire consequences, whereas the Australian youth I most observe, tend to implode harmlessly to their surroundings, (something to be said in defence of alcohol and drugs maybe).
Maybe give the benefit of the doubt to Muslim youth, and they will settle down in time to a life of idleness akin to their Australian counterparts. A life of drug dealing, intoxicated crime spree!
Woops, here I go, personifying abstractions!

Runner, yes I am referring to the advice police are giving women in
Norway & Sweden to reduce the risk of being raped by Muslim immigrants
who seem to have a thing about blondes. In those countries a larger
percentage of women are blondes than say Anglo Saxon countries.
Blondes are virtually unknown in the middle east.

Diver Dan, you need to be more observant. The majority of Islamic
terrorists are mature men between 20 and 50 of age.
The Immans who are driving the system are usually elderly. They do
not want to get shot up in an operation, so they become "Esteemed Scholars"
and encourage the troops to take action.

The young boys, notice are usually "lone wolfs" and are typically
teenagers and rush off into impulsive actions.
Your belief that they will mature and calm down is not demonstrated
in Europe. They mature and get better organised which makes them
harder to detect, they are trained in not being noticed, and undertake
much more lethal operations. The youthful ones do not get the heavy
weapons as they are too valuable to risk with "lone wolfs".

Hey runner and Bazz,
Here's an article I read yesterday with some stats on Sweden.

Well the fearful little people of OLO are out in force. All pooping your pants lashing out like scared preschoolers.

And that terrified, witless inane woman Kruger just does my head in.

I will lay it out again. The reason why countries like Japan are not seeing unrest by disaffected Islamists is because as a nation they are not dropping tonnes of bombs on ISIS heads from altitudes that keep their own military personnel from harm.

It is the same with Argentina and a whole host of other countries that are not involved in the conflict. Which country has been at the bombing the longest? France. Go figure.

Now I for one welcome the fact that we are involved in the conflict. There were and still are people in desperate need of rescuing from ISIS. I understand that by doing so we are putting our civilian population at risk.

There is a school of thought that says by committing boots on the ground is would at least give the enemy someone to strike and thus take the focus off the only retaliatory path ISIS has currently available to it – inciting homegrown malcontents. I'm not persuaded.

Leaving that aside I acknowledge and accept a small risk of harm to myself, my family and to other Australians to support taking the fight up to the enemy.

Why don't the rest of you? Or are you really that intent of breaking apart what we have built for ourselves as a nation, one that is inclusive and doesn't discriminate on the basis of colour or creed?

Grow a spine you gutless wonders.
