Are you actually suggesting that changing the term "Islamic terrorists"
will have some beneficial effect on would-be Islamic terrorists? Nice
thought anyway...
What I'm not suggesting is that not using the term 'Islamic Terrorists' is
the limit of the EU's response to the terrorist threat. What I'm not
suggesting is that The 'Torygraph' is the best and only source for objective
news about the EU. What I'm not suggesting is that the only response to
terrorism is to wage unceasing war on a succession of Muslim-populated
countries.
What I am suggesting is that Diane West is frothing at the mouth in her
eagerness to attack Islam and Europe in the same article. What I am
suggesting is that Europe has dealt successfully with terrorism in the
recent past. What I am suggesting is that parts of US society have a
tarnished reputation as regards its relationships with terrorist
organisations.
And as for nice thoughts...the cricket season has started, I've just mown
the lawn for the first time this year, I've received positive reviews for my
work...
Nice thoughts all.
Simon
