    Appeasement does not work.
    Of course it doesn't because the best you'll get is pushing back the conflict a generation so your children need to clean up your mess. I do wonder how many people ISIS would have to kill before Starlight figures out that you can't reason with them. Guess a few thousand more have to die to make someone wake up to the reality staring them in the face.

      I'm not sure he cares as long as their targets are in the Middle East, Europe and North America.

      I'm always still in trouble again

        Sad to say that you're right. Conflict has this way of finding those who wish to avoid it.

          Burly body-building enthusiast Khalid Masood, 52, was born in Dartford in Kent on Christmas Day 1964. His mother Janet Ajao gave birth when she was just 17 years old and brought him up as Adrian Russell Ajao.

          The married father-of-three spent years moving round the country - and the prison system - with a host of different identities, including Adrian Elms.




          The article says "Masood and his family moved to Forest Gate in east London where neighbours said he frequented a mosque in nearby Leyton. "

          They mention that but nowhere just come out and say he was a muslim. It seems the newspapers are trying SOOOOO hard not to make him a MUSLIM Terrorist. Embarrassed I guess.

            Maybe they were passing out Chick Tracts in front of the mosque?
            Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101
