The Tragedy In Tunisia
For the second time in my life terrorism has got personal with my memories.
Two weeks after I stayed in the Taj Mahal Hotel in Mumbai, it was attacked.
It must be nearly twenty years ago, that C and myself, stayed in Sousse and had a wonderful holiday.
But, it is nothing to all of those directly affected, whose lives will be changed forever by the pointless actions of the terrorists.
My heart goes out to everyone who has suffered loss!
When will it all end?
I sometimes think, that the time has come to send in the troops to cleanse the world of the scourge that is Islamic State, Boko Harum and all of the others, who just like killing people and destroying things and the lives of others for fun!
These groups are no more Muslim than I am!
But we would reap the whirlwind, as things would just get worse!

I was thinking along the same line as you. But it is not that straightforward as you say. We risk turning the rest of more moderate Muslims against us. And IS are not just in one place, in the modern world they can have members all over the world, ready to strike in every country involved as soon as IS is attacked. But I believe they are a much greater threat than Russia ever was, and than any of the individual Muslim nations are now.

You have to remember, that Russia has quite a large Muslim population and I wouldn’t be surprised to see serious trouble in Russia and the republics to the South.
I actually think there could be a lot more trouble in the Middle East, North Africa, Turkey, Iran and the Caucasus, rather than in Western Europe.
