Jeb has an awfully short memory. France has been no friend to Muslims. What has changed? The pill fuelling Syria's civil war and getting Saudi royalty arrested. Abdelhamid Abaaoud boasted back in February's issue of the ISIL magazine Dabiq of his involvement in European terror attacks. (See also this in French from January) Confessions of an ISIL spy. Why do people join ISIL? One more time. The real power of ISIL. In the wake of terrorist attacks, the United States shows the worst of its everyday bigotry. Inside the surreal world of the Islamic State’s propaganda machine. Building an army for Syria’s future. Magical thinking about ISIL. Eye-wateringly simplistic distortion. Being Syrian. How to politicise a tragedy. Saudi Arabia, an ISIL that has made it. Meanwhile. How ISIL defeats us.
An Iraqi town is retaken from ISIL and looting and retribution begin. Measuring the impact of the Snowden Leaks on the use of encryption by online Jihadists. The Egyptian origins of the Statue of Liberty. 'Some were suspicious of a white box he was carrying. To ease the tension, Khalil shared the baklava.' The Islamic State rampage in Iraq has torn villages apart, sowing distrust. What do the Paris attacks mean for Australia’s Syrian refugee intake? Surprise. Surprise. Remember this...Our responses to terrorism always involve more of the same. Encryption? What encryption? Demystifying radicalisation. And a reminder of how we came to be here...
It seems to me The War Against Terror (TWAT) is working out as well as The War Against Drugs. The secret history of World War III. Ansel Adams’s subversive images of Japanese internment. I too hope that the 'majority of Australian society wouldn't endorse the kind of ugliness on display' but the boneheads are not very smart. Australia, you may not be the lucky country for much longer.
Meanwhile life goes on...
