A terrorist is a person who uses terror in persuit of political aims, as the attack was racially motivated the attackers cannot be described as terrorists.

What does it really matter what 'label' you want to put on it?

Those who are interested will read the article for what it is and decide for themselves, it isn't a competition is it?

You could use the word Terror or Terrify as a definition of fear in the extreme, but when you add ‘ist’ or ‘ism’ this is clearly defined as someone having a political agenda, so if the attack was racially motivated then to use Terror would be correct, Terrorist or Terrorism would be incorrect. It’s ...

Bahrain's political problems are quite unique, it is the only country in the world where a 70% Shiite majority is led by a 30% Sunni minority and to add to the religious and political discontent are the Syrians who were introduced by the ruling Sunni's to staff the Police, Civil Defence and Armed Fo...

The definition of Terrorism also includes groups that would terrorise others for their own ideologies i.e. that whites are more superior to blacks, Jews are inferior to the Nazis etc etc therefore it still falls under terrorism. terrorism(ter¦ror|ism) Pronunciation:/ˈtɛrərɪzəm/ noun [mass noun] the...

Regardless of what the FBI or some random internet journalist want to label this story, and after reading the article, twice, it’s about a currently unidentified group of individuals assumed to be white, who planted a home made bomb timed to explode as it was estimated a group of black people would ...

Another positive article - this time about an 86 year old Holocaust survivor choosing to speak at an inter-faith event at a Mosque. Whilst I'm sure that all DFers will respect his right to speak his mind - as I'm sure he's earned that right, it appears that some people aren't happy that he's choosi...

It is funny (but not surprising) that we will get 'sour grapes' posts about Muslims being hateful etc - when the reality is that on this forum only the Islamophobes have condoned the actual killings of humans when they are Muslims - herve expressed his nazi views that Muslims are less than human an...

Heard this on the radio recently; http://www.youtube.com/caroemerald Occasionally an artist comes along whose innate understanding of their sound and aesthetic marks them out as a true original. Caro Emerald is one such artist. Building on the tremendous reaction to her debut single 'Back It Up', 20...

I might be wrong, but the article speaks of a breath test. The value was 535 mg. Alcohol in breath and alcohol in blood is measured with seperate units (mg/dl <> promille). 535mg in breath equals more or less 1,2 promille in blood. You are correct FD, the article did mention a “Breathalyser” which ...

Dillon

Well you can challenge my mathematics if you like, but 535 mj per dl is 535 per million which is 0.0535 % no matter how many times I check the calculation. I get similar results for other news stories where people get sent to prison for driving with around 0.01% alcohol in their blood. Sorry Bluesh...

I’d send Shaf in once a week as his counsellor just for good measure, that should at least diminish his will to live. :) Problem with this is that someone will declare him sane after a couple of years and he will be out. On the contrary Onions, if cured of his debilitating disease, which is highly ...

The perpetrators of honor killings are in vast majority muslums. The reason it has to do EVERYTHING with islam is simple and Not just because these crimes are committed by muslums: In islamic countries, hence under sharia law , (islamic law) muslums who get convicted of honor killing (when they get...

Get a taxi to the Museum and Al Fahidi Fort, take in some history then take a steady stroll through Bastakiya and head for the Old Souk, spend some money, take an Abra across the creek to the Spice Souk Abra Station and head for the Spice Souk, spend some more money, head for the Gold Souk, spend so...

They are classified as third world countries, have a huge population of uneducated people, live in the 19th century and the further you go out to the surrounding areas you find less civilized people.

Well, I could give your explanation some credence if the subject matter was just Smashing plates at a wedding, but we're talking here about murdering your own children.

Musilm, Indian, same Diaspora different religion.

Fragmented, just exactly the same as any other Nation and as I said originally, from the same stock.

And the question everyone is still avoiding?

Dillon

I think we both understand the meaning of 'same stock' in this conversation, if you're genuinely unsure and not just being pedantic, read the back posts again.

And the question everyone is still avoiding?

Dillon

Well that’s all very interesting Shaf but it doesn’t bear a great deal of relevance to the subject matter, which is the increase in honour killings in the UK and the fact that the guilty parties are overwhelmingly predominately muslim, and let’s not forget the question that everyone is still hesitan...
