    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    Islam is a combined religion and political system. There is no separation between the two. Individual Muslims, like others, may or may not adhere to the whole package. We are/have been fortunate here, so far at least. But, just in Kingston, there have been two cases of note. In one, three...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    He can - and should - sympathize and offer condolences as a normal person would. That is right and proper and supportive. Ejaculating prematurely is unhelpful.

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    The property damage was in addition to at least two dozen lives lost while the damage was being done, along with a large number of injuries. Regardless, there has still been far more violence from self-described Marxists and anarchists than those who would be considered to be rightists, and, as...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    They also had the tendency to claim responsibility when there was no proven direct affiliation or membership, just to puff themselves up. And I am not sure where the "right" label comes from, other than as a purely prejudicial term. I consider myself to be right-leaning in many ways, yet have...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    At least a couple of dozen people died in BLM/Antifa riots in major cities in the US last year, and many police were seriously injured. Insured damages exceeded a billion dollars. I've seen no estimate on uninsured damage, but would imagine it to be far higher. There are always going to be lone...

    First Nations - CF help, protests, solutions, residential schools, etc. (merged)

    Still, the decent and non-arrogant thing would have been to treat them as actual fellow human beings and ask them what they wanted and offered help if they considered it necessary or desirable.

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    Yes. "One POS". No sign of group activity, though, yet Trudeau launched off wildly again as is his custom. He had exactly the same reaction when a Muslim girl claimed that a bunch of Islamophobic boys tore off her hijab a few years ago. It eventually turned out to be a hoax, yet he did not...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    I do not trust Wray or Mayorkas at all, and I still see no "far-right" violence that compares to even a tiny fraction of the violence committed by Antifa and BLM supporters. I don't see any remotely-comparable Islamist violence in the US of late, either. And there were leftist elements in the...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    Do Muslims tend to fall into either left or right wings? They seem to be more conservative/traditionalist than the average Westerner. As a group (and I realize that no group is monolithic), they tend to be more, and more seriously, religious. Would what we normally consider to be terrorist...

    Development of the Modern Platoon - SS109, SS135, SS143

    "Personnel"? They weren't making political budgets then as we do now, or looking much beyond the immediate/next battle. Most modern people wouldn't comprehend the PY TLA without explanation either. I've got the article open to read through as soon as I can get to it. It looks interesting, and...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    The media back then lied and pushed their own agendae as much as as today's media do. There was just no competition from independent media to show the other side of things, cover those stories that they did not wish to, go into much more detail, or expose their lies. The explosion of cell...

    Development of the Modern Platoon - SS109, SS135, SS143

    "PYs"? Not a concept that would have had any meaning back then, especially with the short life expectancies of the time and place...

    Religious/Extremist Terrorism: Non-Muslim edition

    I'm not sure if Parler is back in operation, still. But they can, and do, use facebook and twitter as well. So do left-leaning elements such as Antifa and BLM - which is an openly and self-declared Marxist organization that has caused well over a billion dollars of insurable damage and led to...

    Opportunity to update the CC-150 fleet?

    So, with Max' example above, there's 2000 lbs of payload potential left over. Put a bomb on board, and now there's a large loitering munition.

    At least this incident had a happy ending. I hope that he gets a good trade-in on his "mother".

    They weren't all lesbians. I knew a chap who used to go to lots of those, but not to protest. It seems that a day of vigorous protesting works up certain other appetites that demand satisfying later in the evening.

    The loss of life and injury saddens me, and the act disgusts me.
