Update:
Tariq Ramadan on the BBC thinks the main threat is now the emergence of Marine Le Pen in France. In Australia, Waleed Aly worries about Pauline Hanson and Labor MP Kate Ellis goes on television to ask why Ms Hanson is even on our screens (free speech would be one answer). As if the threat posed by two women who might say something that upsets the Islamic community is even remotely comparable to the threat posed by those who would conduct mass executions in theatres and shoot strangers dining on street corners. Memo to the Socialists and appeasers – get a grip, Wally. And a sense of perspective.
Watch the video, click on the link. Wally talks for leftoids, he provides them with all the absurdities they keep regurgitating to throw them back at us.
I WAS wondering how Waleed Aly would spin the Paris massacre.
Last night on The Project, Aly:
– suggested it wasn’t actually the work of the Islamic State, even though the Islamic State has taken responsibility and France has retaliated by attacking Islamic State targets in Syria;
– claimed it was some kind of self-motivated “DIY” terrorism, even though the attack was extensive, clearly well-planned and well-supplied, involving at least eight heavily armed terrorists from at least three countries, with one terrorist apparently arriving in Europe as a “Syrian refugee” just last month;
– claimed the Islamic State was actually “weak”, even though this “weak” terrorist outfit has in the past month killed 129 people in France, 224 people in a Russian jet in Egypt and 44 people in bombings in Beirut;
– warned against fighting the Islamic State in Syria on the grounds we’d been falsely told that destroying al Qaeda would “end” terrorism – a claim no leader anywhere actually made, and one that ignores the inability of al Qaeda to repeat its “success” of September 11 since the invasion of Afghanistan;
