What Fight Club teaches us about ISIS : Comments

By Mark Manolopoulos, published 7/6/2017

Reports of more terrorist attacks force us to once again address the question: why are westerners enlisting with ISIS?

The ABC has figured it out for us all, the latest terrorist attack was not related to Islam since it was carried out during the holy month of Ramadan. :-)
So correctly or not, we may now defer to the outcome of drug addiction to ice, as a main motivation to terror acts.
Actually, I'm inclined to agree.

Anybody still asking 'why', including the Left media and politicians, is as thick as two short planks.

Islam is the 'why': there is no other reason.

most academics are to thick to study the hopelessly immoral and irrational dogmas of secularism. How on earth could they ever understand Islam.

What we learn most from fight club is, this is the last straw for folk, without means or a foreseeable future. And since time immemorial, the only way out of the ghetto or postcode poverty trap!

And where those who arrange the contests, being the only real winners!

Muhammad Ali, may have won some memorable bouts inside the ring, but became a shambling wreck long before nature would allow or arrange, as his payment.

Isis is similar in so many ways as the parasite predator, (fight arranger) preying on injustice and inequality for its willing, with little left to lose, hopeless hell bound recruits.

And that is the one real lesson coming from fight night, in relation to the most atrocious, abominable, mass murdering, satanic evil and diabolical destruction of innocents, ever let loose on the face of the planet!

And like a malignant cancer, must be cut out before it destroys the rest of the body!

It's not like there's another choice and again another lesson coming from fight night, or that there can only ever be one winner in a no holds barred, fight to the finish, contest!

We are all at risk of becoming part of a group mind. Any group gives rise to a group mind, and the more people who become part of it, the stronger it becomes.
The group mind which supports ISIS, has become strong, through numbers, and continually attracts more individuals.
As Nietszche said:” Madness is something rare in individuals- but in groups, parties, peoples, ages it is the rule”
Until an event changes the group mind, it will continue to attract victims
.Mark’s specious nonsense has no validity, and bears no relation to Nietszche, who was an anti-nihilist.

We are at war. As in previous generations the latest hotest war will
start in Europe. A "civil" war is inevitable.
The number of ISIL soldiers in Europe are now nearly equal to the
European armies.
Read this item and see if we are likely to get involved in the European war.
