Poll of the Day > We are living in the age of Islamic terrorism.

(+) Yeah! (+)

It is the global conflict of our time. Previous generations had the cold war, Vietnam, WWII, WWI, etc. This is what we got stuck with.

Nah we live in the fidget spinner age you're out of touch

I wonder if people in Britain and the US ran around during WW2 shouting "Not All Germans!".

I see it more as corporate terrorism.

There's only one reason we're in any of these wars.

It's truly amazing what you will try to do to shift the blame from people actually committing these atrocities.

You mean killing hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians?

No, it'd be the equivalent of identifying as Christian and watching the orthodoxy backed German empire kill millions and then shouting "Not all Christians"

Pretty sure European civilians have nothing to do with oil wars in the Middle East.

Whenever anyone bombs people trying to live their lives it's pretty messed up.

There's no arguing that, but holding random citizens accountable for the actions of the government isn't the right way to approach the situation.

This is a confusing argument. I'm not even sure what we're arguing, because I agree with that too.

It sure is a nice day outside, isn't it? Was pretty sunny where I live.

I'm arguing against the notion that Islamic Terrorism isn't to blame for the attacks in Europe.

More importantly, the weather is good in my area except there's a wildfire not too far from here so it's a bit smoky.

I think they did it when we shoved all the Japanese in camps.

You consider weekly mass murders acceptable? Perhaps you should see a psychiatrist.

More people have died of smoking since this topic was made than have died of terrorism all year.

It's obviously their fault, but the US has done a real shit job of culling it at all, which isn't acceptable given how much money we funnel into it. That's what I'm saying.

The US does a shit job because none of our Democratic or Republican politicians have any intentions of ever ending it. They need to please the lobbyists that put them in charge.

But nobody is running around promoting the idea of smoking and demonizing those who are against smoking. And are you seriously comparing deaths caused by decades of unhealthy lifestyle to violent murders caused by blind altruism?

Can you even comprehend what you read? This is your second time this topic misinterpreting a post. Perhaps you should consider a cognitive therapy.

Well... it was Eisenhower who led the beatdown of Hitler, at least on the western front.
