Islamophobia is the problem

It's Islamophobia which is isolating Muslim people and alienating them. The majority of them are as peaceful or even more peaceful than us and their religion encourages peace. It's Islamophobia which is leading some Muslims to become radicalised as they don't feel that they belong here in the West.

So stop Islamophobia, the cause of terrorism..

Are you serious? :cool:
Gay people have faced homophobia for decades, and they've never flipped out and killed lots of people specifically because of their sexuality. Islamophobia is caused by actions of muslims, so even if it was some kind of cycle where islamic terror leads to Islamophobia, which leads to more islamic terror, the way to stop it would be for ... hmm let's see ... muslims to stop carrying out terror attacks.

You've got to be joking
Islamophobia stems from the fact that muslims are, right now, committing massive acts of terrorism. That's the simple truth.

:rolleyes:
Literally every other minority group has been marginalised and alienated. Yet do we murder innocents? No. Why tf do muslims get sympathy for acting out?

Why are they so much more important then the rest of us? Perhaps the rest of us should all go about murdering and destroying everywhere we go. Then perhaps we'd be given as much special treatment and absolution.

And I suppose islamophobia in the middle east is what causes the countless terrorist attacks that take place there.
Get a clue ffs

No. But Western intervention, and the divide and conquer of the 'Islamic world' around the world over this and the last century, is.

Since then, the terrorist threat has moved largely to localised, home-grown, lone rangers. Why do you think that is? It's got all to do with identity, or a lack of, not really religion. They are angry and yes, it's not rational, but angry people do horrible things by joining a cult that has grown since the 1970s resistance of Soviets in Afghanistan, which incidentally was funded largely by the US.

'"Get a clue ffs". One thing is for sure. Your hateful response isn't doing counter-terrorism any favours. Fanatics on both sides are the problem. If you think making a any minute percentage of the quarter of the world angry is going to make for peace, rather than winning the hearts and minds, then the world has no hope.

Oh dear OP, it seems you've come out with something politically incorrect, thankfully the PC police are on the case.

You are the problem. Ignorant people like you are the cause of this whole global problem. It's not Islam that is the problem, it is the people who misinterpret it are the problem(alongside of yourself).

Strong hypocrisy. One topical example: Iraq War.

If they dont belong in the west and they hare its way of life, then why are so many keen to come.
Islamophobia is not the cause of terrorism, they manage that all by themselves. Stop making excuses for them to justify murder and terror. Shameful.

Notwithstanding that ofc all muslims are not terrorists.

I do wonder what you have been through in life to be so hateful. Can't really be bothered to engage in this, but will just say I feel sorry for you if you devote all your time to target a religion, forgetting that our society overall does far worse things in the world collectively than those 1.6 billion Muslims.
