Chomsky is just a slightly different brand of American who wants to make everything about America. Hopefully everyone will actually vote Labour instead of registering and then not being arsed to turn up.

ISIS takes credit for every strike anyone makes these days, big or small. Appears to me, a Muslim terrorist suffering from some existential crisis and who believes The West is the enemy probably tweeted with some ISIS guy at some point (so ISIS takes credit) but was a lone wolf more or less when he stabbed people or played irl GTA.

Pochoclo posted:Those children listening to pop songs were going to storm Jerusalem any second Well, considering IS's own extensive use of child soldiers, it's not exactly a concept they'd be unfamiliar with... To clarify, I'm poking at IS for being poo poo in a myriad of exciting ways, not saying I seriously believe a concert for teenage girls was a military recruitment drive.

The media turn terrorist murder into a spectacle of pornography because it's profitable to their aims and objectives, and in this case it will support a narrative they have been building on for decades. Everyone can look forward to reading all about how banning encryption/immigrunts/muslims/free school meals would have stopped this massacre, and how if you disagree you are a terrorist lover.

Anyone know if that's like the common lingo for islamic nutters, do they see a white person and go 'look at that crusader!' like a raciest in the uk would point out a brown person and say friend of the family or whatever? It's a common phrase in certain JihadI groups. OBL used it.

Guavanaut posted:Petrol in South Africa is still 40p cheaper than the UK, and that includes nationalized third party insurance for every driver as a percentage of the fuel price. You can do fun things when you make your own fuel. More generally, Fischer-Tropsch chemistry is inherently inefficient and is rarely cost-competitive with just pumping oil out of the ground. There's a reason most countries only adopt it as their primary means of sourcing petrol if they've had their access to liquid fossil fuel shut off by war or sanctions.

Manchester Police have conducted a controlled explosion and carried out two more arrests. In a brief statement it said: Police have executed warrants, one in Whalley Range, and one in Fallowfield, where a controlled explosion took place, as part of the investigation into last night’s horrific attack at the Manchester arena.

Do we know how this compares to previous elections? There's always a rush of registration before the deadline - are there actually more registered this year?

It sorta is, evil Christians have crusaded in the Middle-East in the 11th century (and later) and again in Iraq much more recently. So they are in a constant war with Islam and it's right and just to combat them where ever. (This narrative always forgets that Islam actually invaded Europe first and much earlier, and kept at it until much later, not counting US "oil invasions", by first conquering Iberia and repeatedly attacking Eastern Europe until the 19th century or so.) That said as Islamism is not very coherent or unified, the reasons to fight the West are truly manifold and diverse... I mean they fight with each other even more.

The fact that they're doing this so soon after the attack but failed to stop the attack itself means to me that they're just taking out anyone they've had under surveillance just in case they were involved. I reckon these will be unrelated innocents or have minor terrorism related charges against them.

LemonDrizzle posted:That's a meaningless comparison because the price of fuel in this country is primarily determined by the rate at which it's taxed. Wikipedia says that fuel duty in SA is $1.46/gallon, whereas UK fuel duty works out to around $3/gallon. Yeah, it's still less efficient than dealing with petrostates if you don't count all the second order effects of dealing with petrostates, but as part of a program of using nuclear and renewables for energy and lowered oil reliance it would be doable. That $1.46 also doesn't include the levy for the Road Accident Fund, the state third-party insurer, which is a good and cool idea.

It seems to be common language for people from culturally Christian countries, even when it makes no loving sense that a drat 8 year old just going to watch one of her favourite singers is a Crusader. But ISIS can get hosed. They claim credit when I stub my toe when I don't look where I'm walking. They have nothing to do with this horrible attack, they just want to claim it as theirs to further stoke up the culture war they think exists.

Seriously, Germany has one of the highest net rates in that graphic, while France has one of the lowest. Also, as other goons have noted: if it was on that map (although it was left off for some reason), the 2011 Norway attacks would be the second-largest, and they were undertaken by a nativist, anti-immigrant Norwegian.

buckets of buckets posted:My point was more to do with Poland, Hungary etc. not being on the map. Belgium's on there, despite not having committed any heinous colonial acts for quite some time. The common factor being immigration policy. It's a very small map, and Denmark's on there despite having a similar net migration rate to Hungary. Your theory ain't exactly holding up.

Yeah, they usually round up everybody and the usual suspect, but just do it visibly to make people feel calm. If you read closely in the coming week or two, you'll see (very tiny) stories that everybody arrested today was released without charge.
