Massacre in Tunisia

Terrorists killed 19 people visiting a museum in Tunisia. Mostly tourists not even from Tunisia.

Let’s put a wager on who thinks this was the work of Islamists:

Deluded PC Liberals to the left.

Rational people to the right.

The real question remains, however: how can we blame this on Bill Maher?

Let the exalted cries of Islamophobia and bigotry floweth!

Probably Islamists, but, I’m sure Islamists are not the only sort of malcontents in the MENA.

Jesus, I have to hear this shit every day from my boss. Now I have to hear it from my botanical twin?

Did the terrorists poison all the wells, too?

Islamic terrorist attacks are a lot like our Phaseolic kind, Greenie:

Try as they might, we just keep growing.

Ba-dun dun chhh

Come on guys, let’s not let Islamophobia rule our thinking. This looks to me like the work of an angry white man, probably a Christian fundamentalist of some kind. These are the guys who are the real problem. Islam is a religion of peace, and we need to embrace diversity. #I’llRideWithYou #HugAHijabi #Coexist

Ok, fine. I’m guessing this attack on tourist in Tunis probably has something to do with Islamic terrorists.

If we could just find the sweet spot, the perfect nomenclature, the terrorists would cry uncle and abandon their evil ways.

I’m gonna go way out on a limb here and say that this attack sounds very much like the work of terrorists.

I don’t understand this game.

ISIS type groups from Libya which arose when the US stupidly decided to support the Euros in deposing Gaddaffi, tell me did the US learn anything from Iraq?

It would probably blow OP’s mind to learn that the likely terrorists, Salafist-jihadists, often aren’t Islamists, but that in Tunisia Islamists are often the targets for violence because they constitute the center-right party. Though, to be fair, it’s probably pretty easy to blow OP’s mind.

It’s not stupidity. Stupid is thinking the US is a force of good, or even wants to be.

Have you learned anything about the US, looking at what the US has been doing around the world for the last 50 years or so?

It was the work of violent criminals.

Do we really care what religion they think they are?

You’re an idiot.

Yes. We should seek to understand all of the social and cultural components of crime, criminals, and criminal behavior.

The rules are simple: To play is to lose.

Ah. So it’s the mythical “PC Liberals” that are the problem?

'Cos I’m pretty damned leftist, but when I say “yes, of course there’s a good chance these terrorists are Islamist,” you’ll just say “well, you’re not who I was talking about!”

:rolleyes:

Stringbean, you’re not stupid (this trolling OP notwithstanding). You know very well that calling them Islamist terrorists when they actually are Islamist terrorists is not the issue.

Maybe it was one of 'em crazy liberuhls jacked up on the devil’s parsley.

Do we know if the bus was carrying a bunch of patriotic republicans?

ISIS is claiming responsibility.

The PC stands for poison control.
