Everyone is so confident that that is the case, except, of course, the terrorists themselves, who are just as confident that their inspiration and impetus comes entirely from Islam. No one in the West seems particularly troubled by this cognitive dissonance.
“Angela Merkel says Europe must take MORE refugees and Islam ‘isn’t source of terror,'” by Jeremy Culley, Daily Star, February 18, 2017:
GERMAN Chancellor Angela Merkel has launched a staunch defence of her refugee policy.
The embattled leader says Europe has an obligation to take displaced people from Syria and Iraq.
She also said Islam “is not the cause of terrorism” and that combatting extremism needs the cooperation of Muslim countries.
In a wide-ranging speech at a Munich security conference, the German chief also vowed to work closely with Vladimir Putin’s Russia in the fight with ISIS in the Middle East.
Mrs Merkel has come under fire for taking in up to one million refugees amid security concerns and a string of migrant sex attacks across Germany.
After the Berlin lorry attack at a Christmas market in December, ex-UKIP leader Nigel Farage said events such as that will be “Merkel’s legacy”.
Mrs Merkel had been a strong critic of Brexit, saying she had “deep regrets” about it….
Casey says
Very naive yes. But lets say she is correct about Islam and there is some other force or combination of things that is cause of terror. We know it certainly funnels through Islam at the very least. Why would you put the people of Germany at risk just because you believe they are not the “cause”? Further, would you try every possible solution with subsequent failure upon failure?
Who the HELL does she think she is. EARTH to GERMANY, get her the Hell out of there…are you going to wait until your utterly screwed.. One innocent life is too much to lose. Oh well, I guess once you give in to Socialism and become subjects (not citizens), the good ones that are true “entities” in themselves, become irreversibly marginalized.
