Terrorist attack - Istanbul

[jb03]

Nah JB thats down to whatever bastards planned and executed the attack. Just thinking about the complexity of the politics over there but probably went too early with that discussion.

cool.

The fear of being labelled a racist, is greater than the fear of the terrorists themselves.

interesting take Midsy, might be some truth in that.

History shows though that the US foreign policy direction over the last 30 years has made things worse. Trump seems to want to ramp up what has failed.

Actually Trump's take on foreign policy is about the best thing about him. Seems to be the only major candidate that actually questioned ongoing operations in the middle east and US involvement in NATO.

wanting to stop terrorism doesn't make you a bad person. We're all 'bad people' depending on your perspective and who you talk to. History shows though that the US foreign policy direction over the last 30 years has made things worse. Trump seems to want to ramp up what has failed.

If you can't be trusted you're not coming in, is every country's right, and every citizen's right to expect that approach from those elected to protect them. The Islamist cause can't be reconciled with and continues to find willing converts. The only path that makes sense is shut it out -> cut it out -> destroy it.
