Where are all the South American, African, Chinese terrorists?
KiwiGTI...boy! You need to seriously do some learning. Terrorism doen't just spring up in your backgarden like a sunflower. Cared to think about the West's constant meddling in the Middle-East, illegal invasions of countries, double-standards with Israel? Go back to the 70s and read the declassified american government documents about the fears of economic collapse due to oil crisis...and the plans to invade middle eastern countries to control supplies. Why do people overlook these basic, undeniable facts, and then try to wonder why the West has become a target for these nutters.

Yes, I think we know where you're coming from now, thankyou. Why don't you wind your neck in and allow somebody else to have a point of view?

The 'rabid intellectual dwarf' joins scoobynet under a different name. Welcome back! Hopefully you'll answer some questions this time rather than posting something irrelevant to the topic

Am I to infer by this comment that you think I may be the Holy Ghost? I have to dissapoint you and can assure you that I'm not, and that I'm also sure Mr Ghost is more than capable of fighting his own corner.

No, what I'm referring to is that although you have undoubtedly made a commendable job of reading and memorising your collection of CND pamphlets, and that I might even agree with you on one or two points, the message of whatever you are trying to get across is lost in the delivery. You simply portray yourself as an arrogant, self righteous wind bag, who likes the sound of his own voice just a little bit too much.

Couple this to the fact that you have continued to post right through what must be the most beautiful sunday of the year, a day when every other 'normal' young man would be out in the park with his girl friend and I'm afraid you have singled youself out as a true 'Johnny no mates' of the highest order.

Anyway, it's been great chatting but I have to go out again now to watch Top Gear at some friends and then on to a barbeque. Bye....

Martin

Most radical Islamic terrorists are not from backgrounds of poverty.

Islamic terrorism has one eventual aim - the whole world under Islamic Sharia law. Wake up and don't be naive to what these nutters really want.

You've only joined scoobynet this weekend and you take issue with someone who replies to posts on a BBS. Furthermore, you must have read all my posts to come to your conclusion. All too calculating and focused, Holy Ghost.

I agree I should be out and I am jealous of those who are. But I have a 3 week old son, which makes that somewhat difficult so I've spend more than my fair share of time on here indulging in topics I am passionate about!

Enjoy your barby, I'll be wading through my wines into the late night as I enjoy a paternity day off tomorrow

Seems like most people are 'racist' in some way, Northerners saying 'bl&&dy Southerners', Scoobynetters not liking Chavs etc etc. Maybe it's from the tribal beginnings and something that may become less and less over the millenia but not anytime soon?

KiwiGT,

You would have done well over the Channel in the thirties! Exactly the same propaganda arguments according to the history books.

Leslie, do your research.

Find out what groups like Al Muhajiroun wanted. (Izhaar Ud Deen). Both Islam and Christianity are universalist religions, that is they both want the rest of the world to convert to their religions, Christianity has generally become a lot more moderate, sections of the Islamic religion haven't.

Izharr Ud Deen, or world domination by the Islam religion is what drives most Islamic fundamentalists/radicals, they just use things like Iraq, America etc as excuses.

I don't see why Kiwi is getting accused of racism and natzism. He's only asking questions and voicing opinions on the origins of terrorists, like the rest of us, besides the use words that are in the German vocabulary don't make someone a ****, unless you're suggesting all Germans are ***** at which point I'd wonder just who the racists are.
