PinkCouture Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 ^ Exactly! It's all talk and no action to actually try to resolve the situation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIP_Cabrini_Green Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 @HitchcockBlonde I completely understand what you're saying, but just standing by and doing nothing - allowing Daesh, Al Nusra & AQ to slaughter at their convenience and with little resistance is in my opinion, being complicit in their genocide. Which Is why I'm so disappointed in my President for being so incredibly weak regarding Daesh. He had a chance to take control and dictate this war. Instead he was feckless and allowed Russia and Iran to take the lead. And now look what has happened. Russia bombs refugee camps almost weekly, Iran is trying to gain a foothold in case Assad's government falls so they can have some control. 46 minutes ago, HitchcockBlonde said: Reactionary politics are difficult to resist in times like these but this world is nowhere close to being easy to solve. So my point is, The West had an incredible opportunity to be in control so we wouldn't have to resort to these reactionary politics that we are stuck doing now. So now France is probably going to drop a bunch of bombs in Raqqa for a couple of days and call it even. Then in a month or two another attack will happen. We don't need a large invasion of troops. I think if we let our Special Operations Units out of their cages for once and let them go hunting, let them target specific targets, let them call in more precise air campaigns. We would be able to cut down on collateral damage significantly and at the same time drop Daesh bodies like it's a fucking cholera epidemic....which is what needs to happen. 51 minutes ago, HitchcockBlonde said: (I study International Law with an emphasis on the Law of War so I had a hard time resisting the urge to share my viewpoint, please know I don't mean to attack or condescend, just offer another perspective.) Thank you for sharing your viewpoint! Difficult discussion on difficult topics need to happen. Too many people are afraid to even talk about this stuff - which never leads to any resolution.

jj3 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 The terrorist from Nice was not at all from Daesh or anything. It was a Tunisian living in France since years. He never traveled there obviously. He was not in any data of the Secret services but in the police one for stealing, violence and domestic violence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchkiki Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Oh I know that ^^ no need for any explanation. I am talking in general about all the attacks in the world and how ridiculous "pray for" became Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj3 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Clearly, to answer to such hate, racism and extrem violence, in add of the everydays violence we can see in our streets, with #PrayforHumanity #PrayforLove or #WeAreAllHumans, or crying, or ignoring, it's just accepting that. Blindness is not the solution. And NO, Islam is not a victime of these attacks. All these reactions are reactions of depressive people, for not saying weak.

RafSecret Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Some social media in Turkey has been banned too, Facebook, Twitter and Youtube are all down. Tanks and military helicopters + jets being deployed around their larger cities. It's probably going to get very ugly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stromboli1 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Turkish military locks down bridges of Bosphorus that connecting European & Asian sides of Istanbul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIP_Cabrini_Green Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Yeah but from my understanding, it's not the entire military....it's a specific group within the Turkish military. So I'm not sure how successful this will be for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
