Worraloadabolls. Honestly, did you conjure that crap all on your own, or was it a copy and paste job from your favourite rabbit hole?

Thanks for your interest. I came up with this 'crap' after many years living and working in the Middle East, based in Riyadh. ATB.

This sounds horrible. I'm glad it never happens.

I have worked with a fair few Muslim academics, admittedly not so devout. In general, the Muslims in Thailand and Buddhists get along fine. Nobody here minds the hair covering. I see Muslims out and about and nobody gives them a second glance.

Great example that all religions are cancer!

There's profit in nine-year old girls? Oh, I guess there was...

Thanks god for that, that at least, the local Muslims are not as lunatics as their Brethren and folks in other islamic/Muslims countries.

How thin skinned are these people. Smh.

Apart from the Taliban in Afghanistan and the IRGC in Iran, which whole countries have "lunatic" Muslim leadership? Al-Queda, ISIS, ISIL, Boko Haram, Da'esh, Al-Shabab, Muslim Brotherhood, Hezbollah, Hamas and the like were all radical and extreme Islamist factions that rented space in some countries as well as in some people's heads.

Granted, gov.uk lists these among 84 groups but notice they are groups and highly unlikely to be sighted in Narathiwat or Tower Hamlets.

Oh dear, the totally irrelevant, "I worked there so I know better than you" excuse for a jaded worldview.

For equal irrelevance, I lived and worked in Saudi, Egypt, Oman, UAE and Iraq.

Following this outrage, the police are looking for 6 white men and one female post box, believed to come from the Surbiton area of south west London.

I repeat, the threat of the Islamist's ambitions should not be ignored.

I regret to inform, but Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Yemen, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia AS COUNTRIES, do not have "lunatic" governments.

Having worked there about 20-odd years ago, just after a longish stint in The Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan (just over the border from Tora Bora), I thought how on earth Tajikistan got on your hate-list and that I may have missed something in the interim. But a simple, AI-infused search revealed that "Tajikistan is a predominantly Muslim country (over 90%) with a secular government that strictly regulates religious practice to prevent extremism."

You can go on (and on) if you like, but you may be deficient in the reality department. Possibly it's where you trawl for your "news" that is the issue.

To quote my late sister, 'You don't have to be afraid of everything you don't understand'

At the end of the day both islamists and islamic extremists fundamentally desire the growth and dominance of Islamic governance. Only their methodology differs.

Islam expansionism and their incapacity to assimilate with other cultures is an issue as seen currently happening in several European countries.

Wow! Offended muslims. How unusual. 🙄

The list of the UK's proscribed organisations is here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror-groups-or-organisations--2/proscribed-terrorist-groups-or-organisations-accessible-version

including Palestine Action, of which I am a member.

Nor are any Southern separatist groups proscribed.

Indonesia has the world's largest Muslim population and seem to be doing quite well at keeping people happy. Philippines not so much.

Just wondering if this "incapacity to assimilate with other cultures is an issue as seen currently happening" in Thailand with regard to the mainly white yobs fighting and f***ing on the beaches.

Things everyone can actually see with their own eyes, walking the streets of many EU urban areas, can't barely lie.

I don't know what you call "total ignorance", could you enlighten us?

True, nothing is certain but the threat of Farage is real and he does have a good chance, and it is making the other parties make changes to their politicise.

The way I understand your posts in this particular thread it seems you condone this violent religious behavior, coercion, and physical assault. If true you realize in this case you don’t defend Islam but Islamism?

In my opinion, no developed country can tolerate a religious lynch mob in the streets, regardless of religious affiliation. The perpetrators should be found and prosecuted.
