Also even if the weird kid number thing isn't focusing on Muslims the rest of that poo poo is wild and clearly anti-Muslim explicitly. A national certification for imams that can be revoked?

quote:A national certification for imams that can be revoked? By the French Council of the Muslim Faith, not the government of France. This feels like a smart move; local mosques were widely reported as the place where radical imams were preaching and nothing was being done about it, and empowering the CFCM shows that the government is working with them. It shouldn't have to be said that the majority of Muslims support policies like these because they don't want their mosques overrun with radical preachers and zealots. quote:A really vague rear end 'ban foriegn interference' in Muslim groups thing that super is gonna be used badly? This will almost certainly be a moritorium on radical extra-state parties from sponsoring or investing in mosques.

As anyone who knows anyone shia or sunni knows the problem of radical mosque funding is generally not one of conservatise practitioners, but one of having no other financial options. You can have a cellar with no theological strings, or a proper mosque with all the strings in the world. Making organisations non-grata is a bit like going mole-hunting. Given time, they'll just find other umbrellas to funnel the same funds and strings through. You squash those, they'll come up with others.

many in the west fearmonger about a "muslim uprising" etc etc. even so much so to put it in Children of Men and other movies. Now with that in mind, We are seeing the seeds of this now. years before the big problems start happening, this type of action only feeds more extremism and cultural revulsion in the islamic community. What if a frenchmen reports your child or you etc? People will become even more enclosed. and seek more extremism potentially or retaliate when extrajudicial killings occur or the other hosed up poo poo that happens. The french government with this action is sowing the seeds of insurrection from the people who came here seeking freedom. Its loving unfortunate.

Making a system that has opportunities and inclusion for young people, especially all the young men who are feeling alienated and disenfranchised by a system that has lied to them and exploited them their entire lives while refusing to acknowledge it, leaving them vulnerable to radicalisation by people who claim to have the answers no one else will give them.

Counterpoint, maybe young Muslims will stop radicalising if they get singled out and their families mistreated and arbitrarily excluded more. Huh bet you smart guy hadn't thought of that one.

Cingulate posted:Aren’t islamist terrorists coming from the upper middle class typically? It varies is the answer. Al Queda had a heavy over-representation of engineers from rich families which makes sense given Bin Ladens own background. Like for example the two architects of the 9/11 attacks, who were both schooled in western universities. But as it for being typical, terror attacks from the last 5 years are all over the map. You have disenfranchised youth, former organized criminals, individuals stuck in deportation limbo, former ISIS-members, people traveling in just to commit attacks, etc. I mean Anzorov (who stoked these current discussion) was a former russian refugee that had lived in France for 12 years. Not exactly a member of the landed gentry of the gulf so to speak.

You can either do nothing, and have islamists and ethnic white far-right fuel each other. Or you can bow to either one side ... and have exactly the same outcome.

The problem with doing nothing is that current wave of terror attacks had their groundwork laid in 20 years cumulative bad political decisions who now have a life of their own, even without Macrons attempts to make things worse.

Both were quiet alienated from our society, but neither seemed to have a particularly socieoeconomic motive. I mean, they became islamists, not socialists, or bankers. I’m not saying socioeconomics doesn’t play a role - if recent French terrorists are all from those poor ghettos they have, that’s quite a tell. But that doesn’t immediately suggest a sociopolitical answer of the sort of, raise the minimum wage, teach kids how to code, whatever.

Part of giving young people opportunities is making sure they get a good education, so forcing them into schools at gun point seems to be a good idea. It's also not far from what is already the norm in Germany -the school duty is often enforced by police. If you don't have a good excuse for why your kids are not at school, police will show up to collect them. Sounds probably gruesome to someone from a different country, but it's meant to make sure kids get the education they need to function in society. We even already have "IDs for kids", as you're expected to get an ID as soon as you hit 16. And if you get caught without one, you'll get fined to up to 5000 Euros, which is probably a lot for a 16 year old or their parents. Moving the age down a bit isn't really a world-ending change.

Especially the police in Bavaria is known for being awful to everyone they think is not German.

It's typical, though. I remember when the founder of the Danish People's Party, true champions of the OG cartoon crisis, demanded an apology from a British cartoonist who had drawn the PM unfavourably. The free speech poo poo has always been a fig leaf unable to withstand the slightest breeze.
