Bloodied London Attacker Speaks To Camera After Beheading: ‘You People Will Never Be Safe’

123. It makes no sense to say the West commits "massive terrorism" or call this "retaliatory".

The west isn't doing anything that could remotely be called terrorism.

What it is doing is a) fighting against evil Muslim fanatics, with the support of the democratically-elected governments of most of the countries involved, but arguably with less concern for collateral damage than it should (although killing far fewer people that the death tolls suggest) and b) failing to prevent evil Muslim fanatics perpetrating terrorism and murder on a huge scale against other Muslims and blaming the west for their crimes (which is why the civilian death tolls in Iraq and Afghanistan are so high, not because the West is killing people).

If you want to retaliate against people for the bloodshed, you should be targetting the Muslim groups responsible, not the West.
