The logic you seem to be using is unbelievable. If we were instead taking about nazism, would you also say that talking about WW2 is sidestepping? Would the holocaust be a red herring?

This is the argument you are making.

I have never said either of those things.

Lol, i’m an fundamentalist christian atheist?

The points I made about the reconquista are absolutely relevant to the debate. It is an example of what it would be like if Islamic rule (think of Sharia being introduced into British law) was allowed to happen in the west.

“Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it” seems like a fitting description for your attitude towards this.

Liberalism certainly isn’t perfect, but it’s better than fundementalist Islam in pretty much any metric you could think of.

I don’t agree with US policy regarding drone strikes either. But Obama wasn’t deliberately targeting civilians to my knowlage, so those things aren’t exactly the same.

Please tell me which of your arguments I have…[Read more]

It represents a litteral version of Islam, its very similar to how Islam has always been historically. We should be doing more to support the Iraqi government’s (Who we installed) fight against ISIS. But I disagree with you that everyone recognises this, a large minority of the ‘rebels’ in Syria are members of ISIS, but both the US and UK…[Read more]

To me, it seems a bit like you are saying that WW2 isn’t a good example of why the ideology of Nazism is harmful to the west.

Wikipedia has a fairly breakdown of the islamification of Iberia.

Are you saying that the reconquista didn’t happen?

Btw, the Iberian Peninsula was an islamic caliphate for several hundred years. It’s not just some random war, it’s a major part of European history. Even ignoring other parts of Europe occupied by islamic empires throught the last 1000 years.

I specifically said that I was talking…[Read more]

Are you saying that the reconquista didn’t happen?

I specifically said that I was talking about Islam, not muslims. I’m not sure why it’s so hard for people to make this distinction.

I had mentioned this was a problem in the Berlin thread, however I don’t believe a complete rejection  of their religion is needed.

This isn’t a realistic solution, no party would ever get elected with this policy. And there would be an international effort to prevent this from happening, possibly even war.

This is one thing that I agree…[Read more]

Sorry, I didn’t notice that.

I don’t really see what the problem is here.

Race is a social construct now though, so who knows?
