Why would I apologise for the death of Lee Rigby - I didn't murder him. you are then saying I am more or less supporting the terrorists - could you show me the post where I wrote any support please?
The whole tone of your posts is one of making concessions for extremism in that their actions can be justified in some way because of British foreign policy. It's just one big apology.
Now I don’t know if you are being deliberately obtuse but harping on about foreign policy does nothing to confront the real issue, of Islam being an intrinsically evil religion which is the basic premise to my posts. And you just skipped right over Winston Churchill’s quote which summed up everything I believe quite nicely.
Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities – but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.– Sir Winston Churchill
British Conservative politician and statesman of the United Kingdom
And once again: the simple truth is CC, and I have said this many times before, you cannot debate with someone of religious faith because they do not require a shred of evidence for what they believe, and that's what makes the fanatics of these faiths so dangerous. Everything they do is revealed to them by God, through some Cleric or their reading and interpretation of some Bronze Age book.

What I am saying is that the death of 40 people in Afghanistan, Iraq or Pakistan will not get the media coverage that a single horrible, brutal murder will on the streets of London.
I would agree with you wholeheartedly but fortunately, we don’t live in Afghanistan, Iraq or Pakistan. And I think it is true to say that life is a lot cheaper in these countries and it probably has more to do with poor health care, sanitation, working conditions and diet rather than the barrel of a gun. Oh and It was bad before we got there so we can't accept all the blame.

What I am saying is that you appear to accept the brutal murder by the IRA of soldiers is more acceptable than the death of soldiers at the hands of a Muslim. - I don't accept either - both are equally horrific.
I am saying nothing of the sort and the only reason you seem to coming up with this nonsense is to avoid the basic premise of my post which is,
once again, that Islam is an intrinsically evil religion.

What I am saying is that British foreign policy has fuelled the hate.
I know exactly what you are saying and I agree with that part of your argument and I have already said,
repeatedly, we should pull our troops out and put Tony Blair on trial for War Crimes.

You don't appear to offer any solution other than something that would have been dreamed up by Nazis - I am saying stop interfering in the affairs of the Middle East - don't send arms - don't support dictators.
Showing allegiance to your country by swearing an oath to the flag before that of your faith or facing deportation as a consequence for anyone holding extremist's views, is not a **** solution to this problem by any stretch of the imagination. It is simply a means by which we can weed the extremists out.
I would skip over the Winston Churchill quote - because he was responsible for the murder of thousands of Irish folk, was responsible for the Dardanelles Campaign during WW1 and many other crimes.
