MI5 Chief Seeks New Powers After Paris Magazine Attack
An anonymous reader writes with news that the head of MI5 is asking for more snooping powers following the attack at Charlie Hebdo. "The head of MI5, Andrew Parker, has called for new powers to help fight Islamist extremism, warning of a dangerous imbalance between increasing numbers of terrorist plots against the UK and a drop in the capabilities of intelligence services to snoop on communications. Parker described the Paris attack as "a terrible reminder of the intentions of those who wish us harm" and said he had spoken to his French counterparts to offer help. Speaking to an invited audience at MI5 headquarters, he said the threat level to Britain had worsened and Islamist extremist groups in Syria and Iraq were directly trying to orchestrate attacks on the UK. An attack on the UK was "highly likely" and MI5 could not give a guarantee it would be able to stop it, he said."
That is true. Admitting that there is a problem with islam would be a very big step towards improvement. But since this is categorically denied, it is not possible to find a solution.
While I don't have a problem with admitting that there is a problem with Islam I have a very hard time seeing that the same problem doesn't exists in Christianity and Judaism. The problematic parts of the scriptures are almost word for word the same in the three Abrahamic religions and it all boils down to an intolerance against others.
Simply kick all Muslims out of your country and don't let any more in. Your citizens will be safer and get to keep what freedoms they have left.
It's clear that the Muslims don't want to assimilate and become citizens of the countries they've invaded. They want to take over.
It's not racist (Muslims can be any color or ethnicity). It's called self-preservation. Harsh? Yes. Necessary? Yes. But until they can learn how to live peacefully alongside others, we shouldn't let them ruin our lives.
Christianity forbids the use of condoms for dogmatic reasons and orthodox israeli jews castrate black jews before they let them into Israel.
"All of those Christians and Jews that post online videos of themselves beheading their captive hostages, lining up villagers and gunning them down"
