What makes places like Tokyo different which have 0 islamic terroist attacks even though it have 13 mill population?

I refuse to read any replies in here because it's bound to get ugly.

Terrorism has always been a factor in cities, particularly European cities, particularly London


But yes, Tokyo has had really no terrorist attacks as

A) Japan is a rather xenophobic and insular society, arguably to a ridiculous degree

B) The culture of Japan is very strong about tradition and loyalty, again arguably to a ridiculous degree. If you look back at Japan's recent history, you'd find the last instances of terrorism occurring during the 1920s, which was when you had numerous parliamentary and paramilitary groups vying for control (one of the major groups was the ultra-nationalists who terrorized the streets and elected officials with the aim of putting people like Tojo in charge)


Sure, Japan has no terrorist attacks, but becoming a society like theirs isn't exactly desirable imo.

Why would you post an article that attacks Trump for misconstruing Khans words just to do the very same thing that the article is about in the first place? Did you even read it or did you just look at the URL and decide it was close enough?

Doesn't seem that bad. At least they know how to keep the undesirables out. No chance of Japan becoming an Islamic state in the next 200 years or so.

No chance of Japan becoming much of anything in the next 200 years at their current rate.

Japan doesn't let in immigrants who aren't going to respect and assimilate into their culture.

Wouldn't be so sure of that, what with the refugee invasion, their tendency to breed like fucking rabbits and their tendency to demand the native population conform to their demands.

Use that "massive intellect" of yours and explain what's inaccurate about my post.

Eventually the queen is going to get sick of all this terrorism and take matters into her own hands.

Well yeah, it's more of a fortune seeker invasion IMO, but people insist on calling them refugees.

But let's see: they come here from a myriad of war-torn poverty-stricken hellholes, we provide them basic food and shelter, that's not enough for them, they bitch and complain the entire time, and they resort to crime. All that while the vast majority of the native population doesn't want them there. Seems like an invasion to me.

Honestly I think the main difference between London and Tokyo here really is the fact that London has taken in tons of refugees and poor immigrants from very different cultures. Tokyo has done nothing of the sort.
