The tragedy in Paris causes paranoia in Lithuania

[RizzE.]

It's obviously not helping anyone to change your profile picture to the French flag, but it's a way of saying I'm not supporting any of this shit, I'm with the French as we are united Europeans and if they somehow need the Swedes support, we are there to help out.

Do you think that you stating your quite negative and left analytic status of your attitude to profile pictures is going to change jack shit or is it only the way of showing support over internet that is bothering you? If you're on Facebook trying to find solutions to this whole mess, you're honestly on the wrong page. It's social media. Do you expect brain experts and rocket engineers? Lol.

Kind of obvious, as soon it's about a western country everyone goes ape shit. No one gives a shit about let's say Iraq or Congo.

If your neighbor dies in cancer, do you care as much for John in Bangladesh who died the same day by the same cause? The distance is totally relevant.
 

Fun thing is that as soon as it all happened in Paris, all these lives in Iraq just made such an amazing impact on one another. The hypocrisy in its finest form.

My knowledge will be facts. In 2014, 104 terrorist attacks were related to Islam or had Islamic "background", as in a religious group, person or someone taking responsibility. 121 terrorist attacks were not perpetrated by any group (unknown), yet 162 attacks in total did occur in the Arab world and 54 in Africa. 10 attacks in Asia and only 19 occurred in the rest of the world, India included.

This is pure stats and you can find the source of each attack if you would like to look a bit on statistical sites, but my point is - Islam as a religion and the believers need to condemn all kinds of extreme Islam, because it's a growing "side" division of Islam.

Actually its not a growing side. Muslims all over the world are being witch hunted and targeted as a terrorist religions freaks for decades now, and they are the biggest victims of those radical groups. So if someone is full of those morons, its the true muslims people who are sick of it, hence why you can't find any "bigger" support to that "radical ideology" among muslim people or goverments of muslims countries. Al Quaida, ISIS, Boko Haram, etc they are all really really small groups who were made by foreign interest to hire mercenaries and develop a respectable army force. They're nothing more then  a toll being used in the global geo-political game to acomplish mostly western interests.
So it might be a growing thing, but among mercenaries, 'human rights' organizations, and other proxies that are used to fund and organized them, not among muslims.  (Excluding few countries who are supporting and financing ISIS under the radar, but not for the reason they share their ideology, yet it suits their interests)

This including the oppression towards women, especially in the Arabian peninsula, where women cannot even drive vehicles or people (as couple) holding each others hands without getting fined or arrested. You can't take away the fact that most of the Muslim population is far beyond in the development when it comes to adapting to a more democratic and more humane world. And that's my biggest concern when it comes to Islam.

You're talking about Saudi Arabia, and few smaller city/countries around them, not Arabian peninsula, which is a big difference. Fun fact is, that those countries are the only muslim allies USA  has in the region and they dont have a problem with their radical sheriat law like the examples of cuttting off heads/hands you mentioned. While the countries who've been secular, civilized and gave full rights to women's even before some European countries, with a huge amount of high educated people, big middle class, and a fantastic life standard comparing to its region, are completely destroyed and ruined for good with millions refuges, and casualties almost close to it. Its Syria I'm talking about.

As for democracy, that's one of the biggest lies that doesn't even work out in the Western world, not to mention among countries of middle east that have completely different culture and mentality of living.
You simply can't push your own values and things you consider to be the ultimate good, into a completely different cultural and political community. Simply because it doesn't fit, its like putting a USB in a DVD ROM, you'll just create chaos, anarchy, divided country and never ending civil war, and of course at the end, millions of radical groups, among which some unites to form ISIS. Sounds familiar?

Just look what it did to a fantastic country like Libya was. Scandinavian life standard and social security, GDP rising up like mad every year, 95 percent of people employed those who aren't were getting paychecks like they are working, free houses/appartments for young married couples, instant jobs for people after colleagues,  nobel prize winning in turning deserts into agriculture land, to a devastated, poor, ruined, erased conutry, with millions of deaths, and millions of refugese. Lybia doesn't even exist anymore as a country.
And for what goal was this done to such an amazing country? Promote democracy?
Nah mate its all bullshit, and neocolonialism.

Religion in general is slowly decreasing by time as people are getting more educated. This counts for all. The radical side is growing as well as the quantity of attacks are increasing and making a lot more damage to the African continent as well as the Arab world. Countries as Nigeria, Somalia, Iraq, Somalia, Syria (of course) and Lebanon are taking the worst hits if you take the statistics from 2014. I think we both know what trigger most of it, and yes, I am sick of U.S.A. always invading countries for its own benefits.

You're talking about Saudi Arabia, and few smaller city/countries around them, not Arabian peninsula, which is a big difference.

Yeah, and Saudi Arabia is even in the U.N.
Amazingly, these countries has only been questioned by Sweden's minister of foreign affairs. This is a global problem and should be taken seriously. It's not the stone age anymore and it has to change. It's not humane and it's absolutely not right.

The problem with this 'immigrational' wave that is currently making Europe to a big field of immigrants seeking for better lives and running from war is giving us big issues in further development and does us no good in the way of prohibiting the 'bad' definition of Islam, because the suburbs are already filled with it right now. Take Molenbeek, Paris or even Gothenburg as examples of years of mistakes when it comes to the integration process. It takes approximately eight years for a refugee to get a job in Sweden. Imagine how many people we let in the last years and imagine the cost the country will take for it. We are the one to blame, though. Idiotic politics who cannot see their own limits.

And it's Europe who made these illegal ways, making refugees taking dangerous boat trips instead of just giving them visa and let them fly safely, for a cheaper amount of money. It's all politics and they know what they are doing, yet they are trying to play good and pretend to be angels while they are the main reason people are drowning in the Mediterranean sea.

While the countries who've been secular, civilized and gave full rights to women's even before some European countries, with a huge amount of high educated people, big middle class, and a fantastic life standard comparing to its region, are completely destroyed and ruined for good with millions refuges, and casualties almost close to it. Its Syria I'm talking about.

You're wrong about Syria though. If you compare Syria to its relative countries, the ones close to it, Syria has the lowest educational process within the region. If you compare their education to Iran or even Iraq, they are way behind.

As for refugees, there's this lie that they are all well educated doctors and chemists or any other title the media like to put up. The thing is that only 10% of the refugees entering Sweden between 2009-2014 from Syria had any kind of university degree. 37% of the ones from Iran entering Sweden had good university degrees while 20% from Iraq had the same.

As for democracy, that's one of the biggest lies that doesn't even work out in the Western world, not to mention among countries of middle east that have completely different culture and mentality of living.

I get you and you have a point. But I do think that respect to each gender should be the same and people should be able to present themselves in each way they want without getting stoned to death. I think that time is over now. Feels a bit pasé.

I'm not supporting U.S.A.'s highly dysfunctional ways of handling other countries' internal businesses by gaining land and taking over shit. Even that's pasé and an outdated version of a functional system.

No. Like Teddy said in the previous topic, we won't allow those kinds of topics as we clearly see how it's gonna end up. We are going to be more stricter in this board.
