Think the figure you are quoting relates to the Republican IRA only ( 1707 dead was the figure I saw ) the approx figure I quoted base based on all republican terror groups like the Real IRA - Continutiy IRA - INLA - IPLO and so on - anyway lets not get caught up on numbers the point is a failure too address the propaganda war in previous conflicts cost us far more on home soil than the current war on terror has and if we don't get a handle on it things could get way way worse - none of the Irish Republican terrorists - nor Loyalist ones for that matter - were prepared to die for their cause - this lot are.
I can't understand why you think your anti Islam rants are going to change anything? Of course FGM - forced marriages - grooming gangs etc are abhorrent - not part of the UK culture and contrary to UK law . We need to work with the people who are stuck in their ways to educate them as to what we are prepared to accept as reasonable behaviour if they are to be granted right to stay in the UK. Attacking them from all sides is - as I say - losing the propaganda war and making the job of radicalisers easy. They can preach that here in the UK we want to stop their traditions and in their home countries we are bombing muslims - its a powerful message to people who may feel marginalised and are in fear - don't you see that? Your questions on FGM and grooming are valid and will have been read by quite a few on here already but have changed nothing thus far. It needs actions not words.
By the way you still haven't had the courage to tell me what part of planet earth it is you call home.

Total number of Republican murders was 49% of the total number killed and includes all factions, IRA, Real IRA, INLA etc. Total number killed by all sides is generally accepted as 3466. You said the Republican movement was responsible for over 3000 deaths, I’m only pointing out what may have been a genuine error.
For the record, I am not anti-Islam. I am anti the virulant strain that bedevils this continent - and what we saw in Liege is an example of what that strain wants. There is no working with them - they don’t recognise us. They believe we should be killed at whatever cost, by whatever means. We opened up the European borders and they came flooding in - absolutely nothing to do with our so called invasions - they could have gone to their neighbours, to Canada, to Eastern Europe, but didn’t. Because they’d have got short shrift, thanks, but no thanks if it’s all the same with you. But we were led to believe unfettred immigration could only do good. Come one and all. Greece and Italy bore the original brunt as first ports of call, but they were merely staging posts as they found their way here, to you and me, to Manchester, Brussels, Paris, Berlin, Stockholm, Liege, and all points in between. And where they settled they set about to wage their “Holy War” and tried to indoctrinate us in their ways, their murderous ways.
You think they’ll sit down at a table and discuss their “demands"? Think they want to engage with us? Think that by having a nice chat with your average jihadi he’ll come to see the error of his/her ways? We crossed a rubicon a long time ago. It could have been so much better, but the elite (political mainly) decided they knew best. We never got a say, never said we wanted this type of person in our country. Until Brexit - the 1st and only opportunity millions had a say. And look what we said.
Not sure why you keep repeatedly harping on about me not having the “courage” to say where I live. It’s of fuck all concern to you or anyone else on this forum.
I’ll leave it at that - you have your view, it’s not one I share, but, thankfully, we live in a climate where debate can be had and where, thankfully, more and more people are coming to realise the gravity of what lies before us.
