Major terrorist attack in Paris happening now.

[AURaptor 1,125]

Even if only 1 percent of the 1.5 billion Muslims were radical terrorists, that number is still into the millions... I don't think you can wipe that out easily.

What if that # is far greater ? What if 20-30-40% are either radicalized or sympathetic to the radical cause ?

We didn't have to "wipe out " all the Germans to end NAZIism . What makes you think we'd have to do the same with ALL of Islam ?

I never implied we have to. Around4ever implied if the percentage of radicals is so small, the Kurds should be able to handle them easily.

[AURaptor 1,125]

The Kurds should be allowed to defend their own, I'll agree with that much. Allowed and armed, and not left to fend for themselves, as sadly has been the case for far too long.

But Paris... sounds like President Hollande is going to unleash a load of pain bigger than a bread basket on Daesh / Islamic State, calling it an act of war on the French people.

There are over 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. Let's not act like there are only a few decent and honest Muslims. If anything, it's the exact opposite, the terrorists that just so happen to be Muslim are only few. Like the Christians that used to be KKK. If the Muslims were as bad as yall say they are, we would be probably be dead right now. Just saying. And it's not fair to lump the moderate Muslims in such a negative stereotype as being a terrorist when I can gurantee they suffer more deaths from the terrorists than the rest of us do.

Yes, the extremist are a small minority of the 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. The problem is, that if the majority of Muslims are decent and honest people why haven't they helped irradicate the extremist who are giving all decent and honest Muslims a bad name. Never do you hear of mainstream Muslims denouncing acts of violence and murders by the extremist. It appears from the outside that if you aren't helping resolve a problem, you are part of the problem.

I was going to post something similar to this, but instead I'll simply repeat the highlighted, above. When I see public outrage and action by the alleged throngs of "good" Moslems against against the terrorists, then I'll believe it. Until then their inaction is tacit approval and they are part of the problem.

If thousands of Kurds fighting Daesh on three fronts isnt enough to convince you, nothing will.

If the radicals are that much of a minority, the Kurds and others should be able to wipe them out with support from the rest of the world. Muslim leaders are not doing enough to denounce the acts of terrorism, especially in the USA.

Are you paying attention or just spouting nonsense?

http://www.wsj.com/a...iraq-1447408307

All heads of State. Where are the leaders of the Muslim religion? Where are comments from Muslim leaders in the US? If Islam is a religion of peace, these people should be doing all they can to stop the extremist.

Random reports coming in now... a Paris bound plane is grounded due to threats over twitter. A suspect in Germany is arrested w/ suspected ties to the attackers in Paris.

Reminds me of the chaos and flurry of news stories which followed 9-11.

[AUUSN 823]

Oh, come on - are you serious? The Kurds are fighting for their lives, not to stand up against ISIS based on morals or principals. They are fighting because ISIS believes, in their screwball mentality, that the Kurds deserve to be eradictaced because they are a different denomination of the same religion.

As for those of you that tried to make an absurd comparison between Islam and "right wing Christianity" you need to get your head out of obama's posterior. When networks of Christian Extremists kill thousands of innocent people, take over chunks or real estate greater in size than the UK, and on multiple continents, torture and execute people for sport like ISIS does, and trade women like baseball cards we can start to have a conversation about comparing Christianity to Islam, but for now it's just another proclamation of your ignorance.

I'll wait patiently for some knucklehead to try and tie in the Crusades....

Yep, we're screwed...

So....I guess we live with the threat forever? I don't want more war.....but war is coming. The only way to "wipe" out this threat is to use massive troop deployments and shut out the media (not sure that is possible anymore). We won WWII because we put everything we had on the table. There wasn't a lot of "rules of engagement" per se. It was about winning the war. I personally don't think we have the stomach for it anymore so the threat will be here for a long time.

Really?!? Can some of you just let the world mourn for a few hours before you start with the self righteous b.s.? Can we not show some compassion for those families who now find themselves planning funerals? Facts are still being uncovered, and I plan to let things come to light before jumping to radical conclusions. In the meantime, I will be praying for the victims and their families, our world leaders who likely have some big decisions to be made in the coming days, and that the world can ultimately work toward peace.

I apologize but it's times like these that present a very small window to inform because very soon the American population will be back to all you can eat buffets xbox and the mall.

Have no problem with informing. Have problems with arguing over the politics right now. As I said, the situation is fluid and facts continue to pour out. But going back and forth about one's negative opinions on Muslims seems highly inappropriate at this time.

It's 2015. The days of reflection are over. I don't know if it's inappropriate or not since this isn't the first time an event like this has happened and yet the threat continues to persist and grow. The one fact, from eyewitness accounts, is that the killers yelled out radical shouts and talking about Iraq and Syria while mowing down their prey. Pretty sure there's a tie here.
