Possible Terrorist Attacks in Paris

[Gandalf]

If it closes the borders, then that would be an unusual positive. But if they bomb Syria and close the borders. Well, that would be despicable.

What can be done?

Obviously it's necessary and customary to have the usual harsh rhetoric from the world leaders (Obama, Cameron, Hollande, etc). But what actions can and should be taken at this point? I think each nation should strengthen its intelligence community. Pour as much money as is feasible into it. We're at a point where no excuses are good enough not to do this. It's the only way to combat terrorism.

But those leaders are hypocrites considering that they have gone to sovereign nations and bombed the shit out of innocent people. It is blowback, it was to be expected. That's if it wasn't a false flag as many people seem to think it was. The words of Obama (drone man), Cameron (Libya liberator), and Hollande (playboy bomber) are a fricking joke.

Nobody will ever get serious and say stick Blair in the Hague and apologise to the people of Iraq for starting all this. Instead Europe and the US are on their march and they seem intent on creating their narrative which a propaganda state can largely sustain. It does suck for the people who get thrown under a bus for political reasons, but that's how these guys think. I honestly think this all ends up about Assad with some careful spinning (He just has to go, you know). This time Russia isn't backing down and they are not short of allies this time.

Intelligence? You do know that is mostly for domestic surveillance. Those guys should be cut completely, borders closed and foreign bombing outlawed. It would be a start. You are simply advocating the Stasi because you have become emotional. They want that reaction.

Borders closed? For how long? Idealistic, but irrational.
Foreign bombing outlawed?? As opposed to domestic bombing? Do you realize how stupid that sounds?

Intelligence is where you target it. Domestic, international... I've yet to read an instruction manual that limits intelligence to domestic surveillance.

Emotional? Maybe emotional is what we need, Miles.... instead of throwing around useless rhetoric.

Two choices: You either bomb the country where the cockroaches are coming from..... or you infiltrate the cockroach gang and use nano-intelligence on them to destroy them from within. No rhetoric... no harsh words... no wringing of the hands.

Every country should have controlled borders. Europe is ridiculous in this regard. No country should have an open border for obvious reasons of security. I sound stupid? Go and tell that to the border troops here. You keep a nation as it is without it overrun by basically anyone.

Intelligence is largely about targeting domestic citizens. Go and read some Snowden documents. There is a reason why foreign policy is so lame and never works, they are too busy checking out naked girls back home doing selfies.

Oh, and stop bombing other countries. Stupid eh? No invasions of Libya, Iraq, and arming of ISIS and the Middle East would be less messy right? Too right, I am right.

Emotion is the weakness in all of this as gullible people lap it up. The world needs reason and war criminals in prison and we have NONE of that. You won't even mention the war criminals, but 'ooh ramp up intelligence'. You are who they target as you are gullible in a moment of crisis. I simply see their plans for what they are.

Flights tickets cheeps now tho.

[Dia bando]

Open borders are really stupid, there are people you need to keep out, I wonder how many of theses
scum bags we have let into the UK, A FEW I EXPECT, claiming they are being persecuted.
We should really be more selected who we allow in the UK, it may be not be very humanitarian to
stop people, but why take in people who want you dead,!!!!! extremely foolish and stupid.
Maybe it's time to close our border, if you don't let them in they can't KILL YOU, very simple really
not rocket science, if they get in deport them straight away.

Good bye

Controlled borders is different from closed borders. Glad you fixed that.

Forget your hangups about intelligence and open your mind. Intelligence is a tool. Like any other tool, if it's used correctly it works. If not, it works against you. That's what controls are for. Any intelligence, regardless of its rough edges, is better than nothing at all.

And we'll continue to agree to disagree about emotion. That's what's wrong with this smug, jaded society of young cynics we're bringing up today. They do nothing but snicker, throw one-liners... all the while trying to act cool while doing it. The lack of emotion is what has sucked humanity dry of any desire to really solve the world's problems. It's easier to throw in some witticisms and do nothing.

Isis claims the attack? From downing a Russian plane to this is horrible.

If any saddo posters Live there or has loved ones my heart goes out to you.
