The number of dead is at five now. And that is an unfortunate thing. I think your thread title should read: Not All Muslims Murder Five in Stockholm It would be more politically correct that way. I just don't get this mode of thinking. Presumably, the idea behind it is something along the lines of 'this is what Muslims are inherently like / just are, deep down / it's in the Koran to be violent, so the vast majority of Muslims who never do anything violent are just suppressing it, but it's there, waiting, to pop to the surface at any time .... [or something like that]'. We do-gooding lefties, useful idiots all, don't see this, insist that 'Islam is the religion of peace' (though I've never seen any of the lefties on this board say that) and as a result are a menace to ourselves and our respective nations .... OK. Say, for the sake of argument, all that's true. What would be the solutiuon that flows from it? Pick a fight with the entire Muslim world? (Which, by the way, is exactly what groups like ISIL want.) Clearly, that's a major undertaking that's fraught with frightening risks and the consequences could be appalling beyond the imagination. We're talking about a war that would make WW2 look like a little local difficulty. Does it not make sense *on that basis, alone,* to focus on the extreme and manifestly violent end of Islam and focus our energies on that? The Islam-haters on this board and in the world in general have no useful answer to Islamist terrorism. All they have to offer is ways to make it worse. Useful answer - keep them out. If as you claim that makes them worse, at least they're there and worse, and not here and worse.
