Of note: one reason that the US is successful in stopping plots is that the US Muslim population often reports the plots to police. In Europe, there is less trust between the Muslim population and police, and there is more of an us against them feeling, so plots are not getting reported.

The narrative that these are a few terrorists and "plots" is just wrong.
This is not a fight against a few terrorists sent by ISIS.

You have 25% Muslim population in Brussels TODAY, will be a majority in less than 20yrs.

Some Muslim elected officials are already calling for Belgium to become an Islamic state.

The problem is not with the US. The problem is with Europe, that has already a large Muslim population growing fast. And willfully adding more by the millions.

Ask yourself what will the US do when their European allies (Belgium, France, UK etc...) turn to Islamic states, Sharia law, etc....
You think it can't happen? We are on track right for that.

Strategist says

Liberals, like conservatives are not perfect. Self criticism is what leads to solutions.

You are not criticizing. You are mislabeling and bashing. Criticism addresses specific complaints and calls for specific changes.

And liberals like me do not whitewash Islam. Leftists do. Liberals find the entire Middle East culture to be highly repugnant.

YesYNot says

ISIS is losing in the middle east, and they are likely to try to stage attacks in Europe to get some 'wins' to help with recruiting.

ISIS is just the emerging part of these ideas in the middle-east.
Saudi Arabia has the same. The Shiites are not better.
This is not a group of people we are talking about. This is about ideas.
The first step is to look at these ideas and denounce them as evil wherever they appear.

People also need to pay attention to the non-terror, crime side: Muslims are 45% of the Belgian prison population. In France, 2/3 of all prisoners are Muslim.

They live on welfare while engaging in smuggling, underground enterprises, drug dealing, protection rackets, etc.

And electing politicians who demand respect for Islam and try to impose Sharia.

anonymous says

Going along with that thought while watching the news as it unfolded, there was a comment on how ISIS is "controlling" the news.

In NATO countries, the military industrial complex controls the news. They seek to monetize the problem of Islam, hence invade&invite and the endless blather about "radicalized" vs "moderate" Muslims (i.e. people who actually believe and follow Islam vs people who claim to hold Islam sacred but have not yet acted on it). A "moderate" Muslim is, for example, a prominent Saudi royal who authorizes USD $50bn in procurement from NATO arms manufacturers and associated dealers, while also donating to various "charities" that fund Wahhabi madrassahs (including in Belgium) and militias in Syria; such a "moderate" doesn't personally murder anyone, but pays others to do that.

The other differences between Europe and the US come down mainly to numbers. Europe has imported an order of magnitude more Muslims than America has, and so those considering acting on the "sacred" beliefs of Islam find "safety in numbers." It's like when a crowd starts rioting, looting, etc. Belgian police estimate it takes 20 law enforcement to monitor one terror suspect; with an 8% Muslim population, they have so many suspects that effective monitoring becomes impossible, and the crowd knows that.

Fortunately, they are only 1% here and we cannot allow these numbers to increase if we want to prevent problems from manifesting themselves further down the line. Thankfully, in U.S. we have Latinos who can help keep this ratio in check, while Europe lacks this variable.

Strategist says

All based on religion.

Religion is the facade. If you get rid of the constant bombings, dronings, don't have US government training Al Quaeda, Isis, then this stuff would never leave the Middle East.

Hitler owes his rise to power totally to the sanctions after WWII, and the Weimer financial collapse. People don't tend to support fanatics when they get their three squares, make a decent living, and can take care of their families. Root cause. Everything else is just fumes...

Heraclitusstudent says

The narrative that these are a few terrorists and "plots" is just wrong.

This is not a fight against a few terrorists sent by ISIS.

In terms of the number of plots carried out to date, yes, it is the correct narrative.

Heraclitusstudent says

Ask yourself what will the US do when their European allies (Belgium, France, UK etc...) turn to Islamic states, Sharia law, etc....

That was one of the points of the article I linked. Also, one other point that I've been trying to make is that we need to make the argument between us and the violent fuckers (still in small numbers) in Belgium and other Western nations. If we make it between us and the whole Muslim population, we are fucked already. There are lots of voices starting with Trump, who want to make it between the West and all Muslims.

Heraclitusstudent says

This is not a group of people we are talking about. This is about ideas.

In terms of the larger war on terrorism, that's exactly my point. We can't beat the idea with bombs. In terms of ISIS leadership, we can hurt their recruits and finances for some time by beating them with bombs. That is what's going on now, and one reason for the increased attacks.

YesYNot says

If we make it between us and the whole Muslim population, we are fucked already.

I agree.
However when Muslims become a majority, it's not the most moderates that are going to take power. Just look at what happened at a local level already in Belgium.
http://www.rtbf.be/info/belgique/detail_le-parti-islam-espere-que-la-belgique-devienne-un-jour-un-etat-islamique?id=7865358
This is in French but google translate: ""Il faut d’abord sensibiliser les gens en douceur et leur faire comprendre l’avantage d’avoir des dirigeants et des lois islamiques, pour aboutir pourquoi pas, tout naturellement à un état islamique en Belgique". "

This is why we absolutely need to draw a clear line in the sand and say "these beliefs are not moderate and not acceptable". Name the beliefs.
This would create a clear separation between moderates from non moderates.
It would also force leftists to stop defending the whole of Islam as if it contained nothing evil. You can't defend that killing apostates and polytheists as non-evil.
It would generate the appropriate debate on the morality of these beliefs.

That's pretty crazy that two of those guys got elected. It wasn't clear from google translate what the got elected for, but I'm guessing representing some heavily Muslim district. I argue against policies like Trump suggests, but would not defend all parts of Islam. Then again, I wouldn't defend all parts of Christianity or Judaism. I don't know how you can micromanage peoples thoughts, but some of the renouncing that you are talking about is covered by the oath of citizenship: https://www.uscis.gov/us-citizenship/naturalization-test/naturalization-oath-allegiance-united-states-america

"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

That looks to cover states instead of religions. Maybe it needs an update to explicitly cover religious groups who hold views in conflict with the Constitution and laws of the US.

Anyway, I've been reading a CIA strategy for terrorism from 2003: https://www.cia.gov/news-information/cia-the-war-on-terrorism/Counter_Terrorism_Strategy.pdf. One part I agree with is this:

The Structure of Terror
Despite their diversity in motive, sophistication,
and strength, terrorist organizations
share a basic structure as depicted in figure 1.
At the base, underlying conditions such as
poverty, corruption, religious conflict and
ethnic strife create opportunities for terrorists
to exploit. Some of these conditions are
real and some manufactured. Terrorists use
these conditions to justify their actions
and expand their support. The belief that
terror is a legitimate means to address such
conditions and effect political change is a
fundamental problem enabling terrorism to
develop and grow.

Wow, well I see part of the problem right there. We should really edit that ASAP:

"I hereby declare, on oath on penalty of perjury and forfeiture of citizenship, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

As far as Daesh/ISIL are concerned, their snackbar is better than our snackbar, so taqiyya and dawa allow lying on oath to us in service to Islam. Also, the linked page says there are ways to waive parts of the oath; for example, many people can legally gain dual citizenship. Also, there are other ways of gaining entry without citizenship. Under invade&invite, refugees are allowed into NATO countries because NATO bombed and invaded their country and the military industrial complex wants them to come in and take revenge and justify surveillance. In the US, the federal government does not track refugees; thus enabling the needles to hide better in the haystack.

YesYNot says

Maybe it needs an update to explicitly cover religious groups who hold views in conflict with the Constitution and laws of the US.

ISIL/Daesh claim to be a sovereignty, so they would be covered, but anyone claiming to believe in Islam is implicitly holding views in conflict with the Constitution and laws of the US.

I don't want to micro manage thoughts.
I want Muslims to make a declaration publicly and in written form that they renounce explicitly listed articles of faith.
And make this declaration repetitively, as a precondition to practicing their faith in the US.

Indeed this would resemble the oath of citizenship but apply to citizen as well and pertain specifically to Islam.
If some publicly disagree, they will be asked to explain why, and why they believe killing other people is ok.

This is non-sense and absolute crap. It seeks to rationalize terrorism as caused by poverty, and dismisses the power of cult over the mind as a self-sufficient motivation.
You would think Jim Jones would have established that poverty is in no way a necessary pre-condition.

curious2 says

Again you are missing the fact that the religion hold on someone's mind is based on certain biases of the human mind that are no different than those exploited by propaganda.
A religion is nothing but the joint use of several propaganda techniques coupled with some self-reproducing characteristics.
This is why you can't say taqiyya and dawa take precedence. They are just drowned into the propaganda background.

Public declarations work whether they are sincere or not. Which is why you sometime see people collecting signatures in favor of a cause. This is not to use the signatures to convince someone else. This is to influence the people who sign.

1. OBL was from one of the wealthiest families in Saudi Arabia, with a net worth of around $7 Billion Dollars.
1b. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi comes from a well-off family wealthy enough to allow him to be a lifetime religious scholar. His wife al-Dulami is from a family that counts multiple Emirs and Sheiks, obviously wealthy.
2. Corruption has been endemic in the middle east since the Bronze Age. Nothing new here.
3. Religious Conflict - yes, Sunni Supremacism.
4. Ethnic Strife in the Middle East is between Sunni Arabs and everyone else; but doesn't explain why those who voluntarily moved to Germany, France, etc. are starting to attack Europeans.

The Israelis know you have to deal with Arabs with strength, you have to beat them hard before you talk to them, because they only respect power. The European style of bending over for them only encourages them to become more forceful.

In the Arab World, the superior beats his inferior. Half the TV Shows in the MENA are about a "shamed" or "beaten" junior trying to take revenge on a "superior". The only difference between the action ones and the comedy ones is in the latter, the junior always fumbles at the end and gets even more humiliated.

The other terrorist attacks this month by Boko Haram and allegedly by Islamists in Turkey:

- The growth of the Muslim population has been accompanied by an increase in violent crime, which has made Brussels one of the most dangerous cities in Europe
- In Molenbeek, where an estimated 25% of the population is Muslim, the growing insecurity has forced multinational companies to leave the municipality.
- It reported an average of five new cases of rapes each week involving two or more offenders, in addition to an average of 57 rapes per week involving single violators.
- you can describe half of the Muslim students as anti-Semitic
- Since 2008, the most popular name in Brussels for baby boys has been Mohammed. It is also the most popular name for baby boys in Belgium's second-largest city, Antwerp, where an estimated 40% of elementary school children are Muslim.

Dan8267 says

it depends. For example, we fund our "allies" in Turkey, and they were reportedly buying a lot of oil from ISIL/Daesh. Our Saudi "allies" have also reportedly helped ISIL/Daesh. The photos of John McCain turned out to be fake, but W's Iraq invasion and NATO bombing Assad have also helped ISIL/Daesh tremendously. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see ISIL/Daesh using weapons captured from, or otherwise obtained with the help of, entities that we have supported.

Heraclitusstudent says

Public declarations work whether they are sincere or not.

They may have some effect, but beware of unintended consequences.

Consider the recent example where Muslim gunmen made people at a resort shout Aloha Snackbar, and killed anyone who refused. Suppose next they do that to you. Are you, based on one public "declaration", going to become a lifelong snackbar? Or, rather, are you going to hate them even more for threatening you and making you repeat their BS?

Now consider the context of NATO invade&invite. You've bombed their country, and financed ground militias to drive them out of their homes and into your country. After all that, when they have no place left to go, you demand they renounce their snackbar.

Will they sincerely renounce the snackbar, or will they say what you demand and then hate you even more for that? Some of each, I would guess, and maybe some crossover depending on what happens later in their lives.

IOW, McCain said the national security team recommended arming ISIL/Daesh, and the POTUS refused. McCain did not say, in that video, his own position. Also, I can't help wondering if he misspoke somehow or was quoted out of context; the clip runs only a few seconds, and the theme music sounds like one of your loopy conspiracy sites.

No this not how it works. The key is the reward has to be small.

This technique was used very effectively on American prisoner of wars in Korea held by the Chinese. Many returned to America espousing communist ideals.
The key was getting "confessions" that capitalism was flawed from them in exchange of small and decreasing rewards, such as reading mail from their family.
The reward had to be small so they attribute their own confession to free will are therefore forced to change their point of view to maintain consistency. This is based both on commitment and the rationalization trap.

Propaganda is not a trivial subject. It is used widely for religious, political and commercial ends and therefore must be studied. (though simply knowing how it works DOES NOT protect you from it).

As far as cults are concerned I strongly recommend everyone to read this: http://www.trinity.edu/adelwich/temp/w1.cults.pdf

Heraclitusstudent says

OK, I read it, and enjoyed the reference to Kurt Vonnegut's granfalloon.

Having read it, I don't see how you expect your declaration to work, unless you are planning to confine subjects for an extended period, and btw many of the worst Muslim terrorists were formerly incarcerated for extended periods. For example, America incarcerated Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi but let him go. Before that, America's client regime in Egypt incarcerated Ayman Al-Zawahiri but let him go. Perhaps you are implying that incarceration by the USA or its allies may offer opportunities for indoctrination that have not yet been utilized? IOW, are you suggesting replacing the traditional incarceration routines with a de-programming routine? The risk of relapse would probably remain quite high, particularly as people tend to keep in touch with families and the old country at least after release.

This and the other examples is a good point. Poverty is not required for terrorists, but it is the best recruiting tool for these top dogs to use to get followers, which they need. If Bin Laden were content to go blow himself up, he would have done so. He wanted to lead a movement, get others to blow themselves up, and get ladies, fame, etc. Somewhere you need to motivate young men to blow themselves up. A great source for those young men is people who are oppressed, because revenge is a great motivator. People who have had their families or people in their tribe killed and who face ongoing oppression would great targets. I think that this is human nature more than culture. That is why I think we can extrapolate that to what is happening in the ME. There are obviously people who want to go wage jihad for other reasons as well.

Heraclitusstudent says

This is non-sense and absolute crap. It seeks to rationalize terrorism as caused by poverty, and dismisses the power of cult over the mind as a self-sufficient motivation.

Yes absolutely: you are trying to say that if we eliminated poverty and bad economics, the problem would go away. It wouldn't, not in any substantial way. This is a cult. It is a problem of identity, that has cultural, as well as political roots. And this is a war of ideas. You can not see that just as a refuge for disaffected people.

YesYNot says

What do you want them to say exactly? And do you propose making everybody make some declaration before practicing their faith? How are you going to define practicing faith?

Let me remove the "as a precondition to practicing their faith". They are free to practice, but anyone who says they believe "polytheists or apostates should be killed" would be registered in a public way similar to sex offenders.

This is from an article in the Washington Post today: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/new-isis-recruits-have-deep-criminal-roots/2016/03/23/89b2e590-f12e-11e5-a61f-e9c95c06edca_story.html?tid=pm_world_pop_b

As Belgian police delve into the backgrounds of the men behind Tuesday’s attacks in Brussels, they are encountering a pattern familiar to investigators in Paris and other European cities targeted by the Islamic State: The shock troops used in the terrorist group’s signature attacks are largely men already well known to local law enforcement — not as religious radicals, but as criminals.
As it has done for years in the Middle East, the Islamic State appears to be finding a fruitful recruiting ground among Europe’s street gangs and petty criminals, drawing to itself legions of troubled young men and women from predominantly poor Muslim neighborhoods, U.S. and European officials and terrorism experts say. Some recruits have scant knowledge of Islam but, attracted by the group’s violent ideology, they become skilled and eager accomplices in carrying out acts of extraordinary cruelty.

Heraclitusstudent says

They are free to practice, but anyone who says they believe "polytheists or apostates should be killed" would be registered in a public way similar to sex offenders.

That sounds good, but it's difficult to implement. There are plenty of white supremacists who say terrible things. They only go to jail if the incite violence. You'd be changing our laws quite a lot to implement that.

curious2 says

I don't see how you expect your declaration to work, unless you are planning to confine subjects for an extended period, and btw many of the worst Muslim terrorists were formerly incarcerated for extended periods.

First, I'm just pointing out that simply making a public declaration has an influence on people thoughts, that they do not control.

Second, what I'm really getting to, and I explained already, is that today no one is challenging the ideas in Islam. These are medieval evil ideas, worse than national socialism. Yet middle-eastern countries are actively exporting these without any protest from anyone. These ideas are openly taught in the US, and no one says anything in the name of freedom of religion and for fear of offending someone. These fucking ideas get a free pass.

This has to stop. We have to attack head-front the core of these ideas. And this starts with having a discussion with "moderate" muslims and getting them to recognize that these ideas are just plain evil and unnecessary to a spiritual pursuit. Therefore they should make a public renunciation of such beliefs.

And again, those who won't ARE NOT MODERATE. They belong in a database of extremist people. A public one.

All this is just one part of a total war against these ideas:
- The media should focus on any evil committed in the name of these ideas and specifically link the ideas to the resulting suffering.
- The US should put an end to any alliance with countries that are exporting these ideas. These are not out friends. It has to be made clear and official.
- Public education has to focus on explaining why they are bad.
- we can even add a section in the pledge of allegiance specifically on that.
- etc....
