Another terror attack in London.Many k**led and hurt.The politicians say don't blame the Muslims.Who do they think are doing it? Aliens from the moon? Enough is enough.
Why would you blame all Muslims? Did you blame all Catholics for IRA bombings?
As a very elderly Londoner I remember when there were no Muslims and we had no terror attacks. We went about our business without fear of having a van driven at us.
As for the IRA you should have seen the hatred by great swathes of the population of Belfast by both sides.
Don't sit in your cosy little homes and preach at me, I have seen bodies blown apart. Have you?

You misquote the politicians. What they say is 'don't blame those who did nothing, only the guilty ones.'
There's a big difference.
Do you think every American should be banned from travel or pay some other penalty just because Trump is an asshole, or do you think that's Trump's responsibility and his own debt to pay?

So you have been attacked by, what?, 50 terrorists, or 100? And you want to punish 1.4 Billion of them?
Sorry that you have seen bodies blown apart, but that doesn't prove your point.
We have an i***t and an asshole as president (same person , of course) but I hope you don't attempt to punish 325 million Americans for what he--and only he--does.
H**e to break the news to those that do not want to face the fact , IT is a religious war. IT has been going on since the Crusades, don't care which side you take.

"...IT has been going on since the Crusades..."
True in a sense, but not particularly helpful today.
We are fighting a combination of fundamentally very conservative religion, tainting conservative politics, with a large dose of irrationality tossed it, and assisted by our own stupidity, and fifty years of political and military incompetence upon our part thrown in.
It's a sure losing effort as we see every day.

That would be before we ran amuck in their corner of the world, wouldn't it?
