Seriously guys... we talk about how sheep are taking over, and I just worry that if we don't keep the French out of SC, their laziness, their cowardice, it will seep into our very culture. We have all seen what happens when the French fight the terrorists. They give up and lose a key battle in their own capital. No doubt the French had their white flag up as soon as the first bomb went off.
If this were League of Legends, it would be said that the French where "feeding" the terrorists.
So... do we ban the French for their cowardice or do we allow them to scrape by a meager existence here on SC as the peasantry?
"No doubt the French had their white flag up as soon as the first bomb went off. If this were League of Legends, it would be said that the French where "feeding" the terrorists."
That sounds more like "Surrender at 20".
I think the issue is that ISIL isn't really another military, and treating them as one is redundant. They're a doomsday cult, albeit weaponised. They earnestly believe that Yawm al-QiyÄmah (Armageddon) will take place in Dabiq, as soon as the "crusaders" invade.
Another misconception is that they're most interested in killing citizens of the West. Of course, that's part of the plan, but their most loathed enemy is the apostate Muslim. This is why it's ridiculous to persecute moderate Muslims, almost all of whom denounce the khalifah as a whackjob cult leader.
Trypt, that article is apt. This "only light can dispel darkness" flower-sniffing bullshit doesn't mean an iota to people who are earnestly eager to die for their cause. The thing that most infuriates me is that they publish a fucking periodical. This isn't my conspiracy theory, they have literally printed this. For some reason, the Western media (and powers) are paying no mind to their expressed views in favour of a fictitious political bogeyman. They can't be confronted in the same way that, for example, al-Qaeda was confronted. They aren't making political demands. To them, this isn't a political war.
