Where have you been hiding for the last few years, terrorism has been part of Ireland' troubles, in recent times, since the early 1960s.

How did Catalonia get into the discussion?

//I hardly think that Ireland and Catalonia have anything to do with terrorism.//

Ireland? Naught to do with terrorism?

Sorry, but I don't believe in the Pub Bombing Fairy. I love the Irish and the English and the Scots (the Welsh can bugger off and 'tend to' their sheep), but I'm quite prepared to admit that some of them are currently accommodated at Her Majesty's pleasure for terrorist offences.

//And, Islamic terrorists are not trying to throw off the yoke of governments they don't like: they are trying to take over the world//

This is why you should set the bar low, so you'll never be disappointed. Megalomania is guaranteed to lead to crushed dreams, especially if would-be world conquerors fail to realise that:

1) The last person to make a halfway decent attempt at taking over the 'world' was Genghis Kahn about 800 years ago, and it all fell apart fairly quickly after his death.
2) They haven't got the numbers.
3) They haven't got the resources.
4) Any serious foray outside of their silly little tribal battles into a greater global sphere will see them get squashed, very heavily, by the military might of NATO. If there is WWIII, it will be quite brief and quite decisive, and those with the best technology will win.

Oh dear, did somebody say mattress to Mr. Lambert?

And did those feet in ancient time,
Walk upon Englands mountains green:
Dum da de da de dum de da dum
De dum de da da dum de dum...

...

BRING ME MY BOW OF BURNING GOLD;
BRING ME MY ARROWS OF DESIRE:
BRING ME MY SPEAR: O CLOUDS UNFOLD!
BRING ME MY CHARIOT OF FIRE!

I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand:
Till we have built Jerusalem,
In Englands green & pleasant Land.

Israeli terrorism ? Might just work . That's if IS don't fit rockets into all the minarets .

<two concrete reasons for terrorism is well known. 1. Basic needs for a decent living not being met is an important reason for the Maoist terrorist activities. The so called civilized society and its democratically elected governments have miserably failed in this regard. 2. Religious fundamentalist ideas is another important cause for the violent activities in South West Asian region and Africa. Probably there is some poverty related element for the mushrooming of religious fundamentalism in those regions. This signifies the failure of conventional religions in mitigating the suffering of the people.>

Oh here the Muslims and black countries go again, blaming the well run and organised Western and European countries for their poverty and troubles.
These people are responsible for the running and prosperity of their countries. One word to these male dominated societies. Contraception. You cannot produce more people than your country land and resources will support.
It would seem obvious the grossly overpopulated countries are the poverty stricken ones.
7billion people in the world and rising. Even many animals are being driven to extinction by the ever expanding human populations.
Instead of blaming countries like the West where women are empowered, and so the whole society prospers because of this, maybe some of the males and especially the religious ones
Could look at what they themselves are doing to bring about the misery caused by overpopulation which leads to lack of resources and poverty.
Western countries are not to blame and bear no responsibility for the mess in these countries. The leaders of these countries are the ones who fail their people.

Don’t look at successfully run countries with jealousy and blame them for your own failures. Accept responsibility.

Religion is just used as a cloak to mask genocide.

Your opinion is feudalistic. The whole world is one. Let us not blame one another. Let us try to understand the causes for the problems that humanity feces. Let each one of us, the world citizens, contribute for improving the lot of the people. Fanaticism of religions create havoc in the world. Feudal mind set makes a person unjust
