“We’re At War!” Canada Wakes Up!
Got home late tonight, felt the need to get out and about, after the horror news fom Canada.
========================
- I smsed my old Jakarta pal, who left here a few years ago, and said a break from domestic routine was required, due to the murderous jiahdists back home..
His response ended with the words I had been hoping to hear from everyone in the Dominion-
“We are at war!”
Good!
We are at war, with evil , whose minions adhere to a barbarous ideology, which requires its followers to elevate sectarian drivel – solidarity wih the ummat – above their proper allegiance due to Queen and Country.
Anyone who endorses such a vile notion is not fit to live in a civilised country.
===============
Round them up, kick them out!

We are at war with Islamist extremism, particularly ISIS, or ISIL or IS or whatever you want to call it. i don’t like hate speech laws because they undermine freedom of expression but Ottawa plans to revamp those laws this week to include any endorsement of terrorist organisations. I’m troubled by this but maybe it’s necessary now. What do you think, Ross?

Welcome back, vojo. I had a feeling you’d be dropping by RRA again after the recent horrors. Here in jakarta, it’s a glorious hot day, rather different, I guess, from your location?
—————
I can’t see anything wrong with outlawing support for terrorism. ISIS, IRA, Boko Haram, whatever, regardless of race, creed and colour, they are not interested in discussion but in death.
People who incite support for these groups are basically inciting murder (and now, in ISIS’ case, slavery!)
Not only that, but treason/sedition has traditionally been a capital offence. I don’t suppose Harper has raised that aspect, but with regard.to people taking up arms based on their commitment to an alien ideology,to which they give the allegiance that’s properly due to Canada (or America, NZ, Oz, UK, France etc,) – in what way is that not treason.

Hey Ross, this location has nice, autumnal weather, the leaves gloriously multicoloured and blowing around. I like this time of year.
Some people here have been saying what you’re saying: instead of creating new laws, just enforce the old ones already on the books pertaining to sedition and treason, and if this really is a war, then bring back the death penalty for such offences.
