Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
Yazidis's beliefs have also plenty of Zoroastrian elements, a religion which was not recognized as acceptable by the pro-Roman Mohammad.
On your second point, according to the slogans of moderate and not so moderate rebels alike, Christians should get exiled from Syria and Iraq, while the Shias should be massacred indiscriminately.

Every military action results in grist for the propaganda mill.
If the impetus for the removal of ISIS does not come from within the area, I think it is ultimately doomed to fail.
Depends on how hard you go in I think. But the state itself isn't a threat, but IS traveling to Europe is, nobody knows who's who

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
This surprised me a bit, Boko Haram were responsible for more deaths last year than ISIS:

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
It makes sense. The nations Boko Haram attack have less anti terrorism capabilities than the ones Daesh operates in, so it's obvious they would have more success.

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
No, that's not the case at all. The difference is simply that in population size.
-
Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
Monty, west Africa doesn't have more people in it than Europe and the Middle East combined.
It's more likely their body count is due to the lack of anti terror capability countries like Nigeria and Cameroon have compared to nations like France Germany and even Syria.
A lack that is not helped by politicians embezzling massive amounts of the Nigeria's national defense budget.

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
Greyblades, you seem extremely confused as to what Al-Shabaab is and where it operates, let alone what security resources the countries it afflicts possess.
-
Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
...dude, I'm confused? We're talking about Boko Haram not Al-Shabaab.
Boko haram
Strength: 7,000-10,000
Area of operations: Northeast Nigeria, Northern Cameroon, Niger, Chad
Even then the nations that Al-Shabaab attack arent that great themselves, nor are they all that numerous.
Al-Shabaab
Strength: 7,000-9,000
Area of operations: Southern Somalia,
Yemen

But you still haven't understood the difference between what has been going on in Africa, and what has been going on in Syria and Iraq.

For a moment I was confused and thought north Africa counted as everything north of the Congo. I refreshed myself on primary school geography and corrected my misconception.
Either way, unless you're arguing that a smaller population is contributing to their body count (I don't know how that would work.) population size is not a contributor as you claimed.
Care to explain yourself for once?

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
It is, Boko Haram attacks small villages, not entire towns like IS does. They can cause a lot more trouble with much fewer man. Army can never be on time to save a village.
-
Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
ISIS is a quasi-state. Boko Haram is a guerrilla army.
ISIS kills primarily combatants, on the front lines. Boko Haram kills primarily civilians in bombings and shootings, escaping before they can be targeted by security forces.

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
Both are scum of the earth. Apparently the planner of Paris attacks was among the dead of yesterdays police raid at St. Dennis. Good riddance.

A couple of years ago I talked to a guy who repairs electronics. He said that the quality of the details of Chinese make he buys depends on the markings: if it carries "made in China" on it, it is likely to be crap, but if it has "made in PRC" written on it, its quality is much better. Don't know if it applies to other things produced there.

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
At least looks like multiple attacks were planned al over Europe, hardly surprising of course after the current influx of course. Nothing have been comfirmed mind you, but it looks like a bigger plan. In any case it's what I have been expecting (and warned against if you don't mind) for years.

Meet the woman in the American flag hijab

"The message we were trying to portray was that we are Americans, we are Muslims, we are Republicans. We need to be accommodated and accepted," says Ahmed.
Methinks muslims would get less grief if more acted like this woman.

Actually I think we should make an exception for those who deserted from Daesh and are trying to get back home. It would be very valuable to have some Muslims with first hand experience of the horrors of the Islamic State telling those who are thinking of leaving for Syria how bad it really is.

Could be that she really needed help, these devices often come with something you must squeeze, if you don't squeeze they go of. I wonder if she had a stabbing wound because it's a rather useless place to detonate it yourself

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
Donald Trump can't shut down the mosques.
I have no problem with her wearing what she wants. Plenty of people would probably spit on her and try to stone her though. Like a large portion of the people she's trying to defend. American Muslims are a very small, highly educated, highly monied minority. They are not their counterparts in Europe.

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
It's possible, these guys are ruthless. She had a fetish for cowboy-hats by the way, just saying.
It's what I would have done if I were terrorist, stab her in her lower back, you live long enough to get out and faint BOOM

Re: Paris attacks: At least 120 dead
It's also possible her cousin or his associates strapped the bomb to her ala hurt locker, we wont know either way.

She was also a notorious boozer, apparently. It's weird how the one thing that sticks is "kill the unbelievers" I suppose it's what you hammer home the most.
