    The people writing about global jihad are earning their living ramping up hate and fear.

    I said I spent three weeks in Spain.. I said I went to Lebanon every year for almost two decades..

    Arabs are Caucasians.

    Most Arabs are peaceful.. they aren't rioting.. They aren't terrorists. In fact they are fighting the terrorists and the radicals every day.

    That photo is from Lebanon. She an idiot.

    I sure would love to meet and talk with Saad Hariri.....

    Which means the world has got it all wrong then, and global jihad is all in the mind? Wow you're seriously . . .

    Yes, it is from Lebanon... what's your point? The issue happened in Lebanon did it not?
    It appears from the picture that someone has a scarf ready for Le Pen. I'm not commenting on Le Pen's character whatsoever, but it appears that she was going to keep her appointment; she turned up and this picture suggests that someone attempted to make her wear a scarf which is not a requirement.

    I'm saying that if it is a Lebanese official then they shouldn't have been handing her a scarf if it's "not a requirement". That's all.
    I don't see what's difficult to comprehend there.

    EDIT:
    So it was an official. He shouldn't have had a headscarf ready; he maybe could have asked or at least informed her aides before arriving that she had an option... rather than springing it on her.
    IMO - if it's not a requirement the official shouldn't have made it appear that it was by waving a headscarf assuming it would be worn.

    I have travelled the world. Your argument is so fatally flawed that it shouldn't be given any more oxygen. It is like saying that because I lived in a village full of rapists and that I was never touched, that everything is fine. You don't know what goes on behind closed doors, what sort of Islamic jurisprudence is taking place behind the scenes or what human rights violations and atrocities are taking place across the nation.

    But you do know what goes on behind closed doors?

    OK, so it is about the sovereignty of Palestine as a completely independent nation. Well if the Palestinians wanted a prosperous and peaceful nation, they would purge the fundamental Islamic ideology from its lands. Why should Israel allow the development of terrorist state on its doorstep? The world doesn't need another terrorist state, we already have Saudi Arabia and Iran to deal with.

    I know the international law and how flawed it is. Why isn't the Swedish government brought before The Hague for crimes against humanity? They have left the floodgates open for Muslim refugees to come in and rape their women for the best part of a decade. This is a crime against humanity.

    You think Saudi Arabia is a terrorist state?

    Remember that in 1949 Chaim Weizmann wanted to forcibly remove the rest of the Palestinians to Arabia. He approached Ibn Saud and ARAMCO.. and he asked the US to pay for it.

    That's because you lack the information and knowledge. It isn't your fault I suppose.

    Using immature tactics and superficial inquiry is a measure of success now. Surely you aren't very successful in life if this is how you measure success.

    This is an observation based on the discourse thus far. Please prove me wrong.

    If you are unable to acknowledge the 7th century barbaric religious-political ideology of Islam, you will never understand the conundrum in the Middle East.

    You think that you are the only person that has an understanding of the Middle East. My grandfather was born in the Middle East and lived in Egypt for many decades. I grew up with Lebanese friends, spent time in their houses and learned their way of life.

    You are more of a pantomime than anything else.

    And those who think they know everything know very little about anything? It's the same in real life - stupid people like to talk incessantly about other stupid people.

    [​IMG] That's the sort of question the queen always asks one of her 'subjects' when she finds herself having to communicate with them, viz. 'Have you come far?'

    Seriously, you lack depth of the intricate issues in the Middle East, your skills of inquiry are evidently superficial, and you are clearly biased.

    Exactly cerebus. Mosques spreading venom across our nations.

    Well maybe that is so. We do not know. However other things are not as you say. After the 2006 war where Israel practised her Dahiya doctrine including sending out leaflets to tell people to leave and then bombing their convoy as they left (as told to me by a Lebanese Christian and war photographer) all of Lebanon including Maronite Christians became supporters of Hezbolla. I also notice you complaining about the Muslim increase in Lebanon from the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. If you want to change this you would be more logical in supporting their right of return ;)
