Considering some of the shit that gets a run on this forum it's funny as fuk.
Harry, once the demented finally rally...then there will be a reckoning.
But not entirely unrelated to the inescapable fact that post 2003 Iraq invasion, and as a consequence of the drone wars subsequently waged in several theatres since then, at least 2, 000 (but probably many more) innocent Arab/Muslim men, women and children have been slaughtered by coalition forces but who have been dismissed merely as collateral damage or their deaths simply denied, no matter how implausibly.
It's a complex issue but one could not possibly expect the lower end of Western democracy, as manifested by the stupid Americans and lumpen British to comprehend it.
Launching attacks on civilian western targets is merely reciprocity in the eyes of many Arabs and if one fails to recognise that then you must be quite, quite stupid.

CAIRO - - Islamic State supporters celebrated on social media on Tuesday after a blast at a concert venue in the north of England killed at least 19 people, although the militant Islamist group has not formally claimed responsibility.
British police have said they are treating the blast at the Manchester Arena at the end of a concert by US singer Ariana Grande as a "terrorist incident". More than 50 people were wounded.
Twitter accounts affiliated to Islamic State have used hashtags referring to the blast to post celebratory messages, with some users encouraging similar attacks elsewhere.
Some messages described the attack as an act of revenge in response to air strikes in Iraq and Syria.
"It seems that bombs of the British air force over children of Mosul and Raqqa has just came back to #Manchester," one user named Abdul Haqq said on Twitter, in reference to the Iraqi and Syrian cities held by the militants where a US-led coalition, of which Britain is a member, is conducting air strikes.
Supporters posted messages encouraging each other to carry out "lone wolf" attacks in the West and shared Islamic State videos threatening the United States and Europe.
One user said he hoped Islamic State was responsible for the attack, although no claim has appeared on any of the militant's group's official social media channels.
"We hope that the perpetrator is one of the soldiers of the caliphate," he wrote on a channel affiliated to the group hosted by messaging network Telegram.
Others posted banners saying "the beginning is in Brussels and Paris, and in London we form a state," in reference to previous similar "lone wolf" attacks in Belgium and France for which the group has claimed responsibility.
British Prime Minister Theresa May said the blast was being treated as a terrorist attack.
If confirmed, it would be the deadliest militant assault on Britain since four British Muslims killed 52 people in suicide bombings on London's transport system in July 2005.
US officials drew parallels between the blast and the coordinated attacks in November 2015 by Islamist militants on the Bataclan concert hall and other sites in Paris, which claimed about 130 lives.
Two officials who spoke on condition of anonymity said that initial signs pointed to a suicide bomber as being responsible for the blast.

Why do people like you always seem to forget the fact that muslims have been slaughtering each other 1400 years.
Terrorism is part of the extremist doctrine, and always will be.
Most muslims just roll their eyes at it the same way most pikies couldn't give a fuck about the IRA.
The only reason you are hearing about this latest terrorist atrocity is that it happened in Manchester.
There have been more than a dozen suicide bombings globally with over 100 casualties just this month. I doubt you've read about more than one of them. No prizes for guessing the nature of the perpetrators.
Methinks you are looking at it from the wrong angle.
RIP to the dead.
Terrorists gonna terrorist.
Don't let them change the way our society works or the way we go about our lives and they don't win.
This is quite correct, of course.
It was used as a reason when Isis burned the Jordanian pilot alive. That he and his comrades were there burning their children alive with their bombs.
How many muslims were killed in retaliation over 9-11 during the ensuing Western led wars? And they probably weren't even responsible for 9-11.
Either way, this attack is abhorrent. Just as all militant attacks on innocent civilians are.
je suis Manchester?
Europeans should send a stern warning to the jihadists, that they have lots of flowers and candles and are not afraid to use them.
Don't be surprised to find out the bomber is a home grown victim of the 60s white Englishman Paki Bashing
Indeed. So sorry for the victims and their families.Originally Posted by Auroria
The US (indirectly) through their bombing/bullying and interfering in world affairs - has a lot to be responsible for. Still not vindicating the cnuts that did this, of course.. just saying like...
Just because you are an ole fart and your hip joints are not working anymore....
For our last number, I'd like to ask your help. Would the people in the cheaper seats clap your hands. And the rest of you, if you'll just rattle your jewelry......ahemm prosthetic implants.
