    I was thinking more counter terrorism and intel and monitoring rather than bomb detectors.

    With respect to security at the airports, thats more paid by airport terminals than the government though right (although probably past onto us in costs)?

    Probably unnecessary but its purely a pr exercise as if you decide to do nothing, no doubt some snowflakes would complain/legal action taken in this day and age because no one did anything to mitigate airport terrorism!

    But as one of their goals is to over throw capitalism, that sits them toward the left surely?

    I've said before, I don't hold with the desire to fit people into convenient boxes, as it's over simplistic, but as the argument is the so called 'far' right, it seem seems only right to see where the other 'far' groups sit.

    Not really.

    They want to overthrow all forms of Gvt expect their own. In their imagined global caliphate their version of the Quran would be politics, the law, everything.

    Don't the other extremists want to replace governments with one of their own ideology too? Which book of fantasies they get their ideology from shouldn't mean the political leaning's are dismissed.

    If you are going to quote numbers then it helps if you can back them up.

    I'll answer for him on explaining some of those "about 100" Islamic terrorist murders .

    52 + the 4 bombers on 7 July 2005 in London non fatal injuries 784 .


    Manchester pop concert Islamist attack 22 plus the bomber total 23 dead .
    800 plus non fatal injuries

    London Bridge Islamic terrorist attacks.

    8 killed plus the 3 murderers.

    48 non fatal injuries


    That's 90 dead there already

    They have no political leanings, that’s the point. In a Theocracy the religious text is the politics.

    Two of the most extreme examples are obviously Hitler. Lenin overthrew the ruling elite. Seems as if overthrowing a government for whatever ideology doesn't tell us left or right.

    I take your point about terrorism, but a relatively small bomb could cause a plane to crash and kill everyone on board.
    It would take a much larger device to kill hundreds in an airport.

    You can try to 'prove' otherwise if you like, so far you've failed.

    I love the way that this is being framed as a choice between a bunch of far-right ****s and some religious lunatic ****s on the other side.
    They're two sides of the same ****ty coin. I'm quite happy to chuck the whole thing down an abandoned well somewhere and fill it in.

    You're the one claiming to have 'proven' something, I simply asked a question. <doh>

    I agree, it should never be a choice. Condemn it all in equal measure.
