A truck could be used by anyone from anywhere as was demonstrated in the Nice attack. Someone could easily hijack a truck at a service station or rest place that has already crossed a border.

So how many people is it?

Exactly this.

To put it simply, these liberals are saying "Yes the Muslim faith is attached to some terrorism but it's only a handful of people and your faith is also responsible for innocents being killed. Many years ago. On a massively smaller scale."

Seriously? If I go and gun down a woman and child in the name of Christianity whilst shouting out "Praise the Lord", that doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of all terrorist attacks is attached to Muslims and Islam. These people will try telling you that Jo Cox's murderer somehow proves that it's not all Muslims/refugees/asylum seekers. WE KNOW IT ISN'T. But just look at the numbers.

Why don't you go and do some of your own research, then compare that number to other nutjobs that have murdered in the name of a religion? Come back with your results.

What difficult, uncomfortable decisions do you think need to be made though? There are nearly fifty million Muslims living in Europe, and of course millions more visit each year. If you want to make us safe, how are you going to stop one of these people from hijacking a lorry and driving it into a market?

I'm comparing the number of people carrying out terrorists acts compared to the number of Muslims (in this case) in Europe. It's a handful. Still a huge problem but a handful.

Same with all terrorism, no matter what the aim.

A more important question is how many Christian, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jewish individuals would do something like that in the first place? Are you starting to see my point?

This is part of European life now unfortunately. Every time it happens we will be told to just ignore it or else the terrorists win, or it will give ammunition to the far right. People will change their Facebook status to the flag of the affected Country for a week or 2 and it will all be forgotten until the next massacre.

Of course. But when people of your religion - which accounts for less than a quarter of the world population - account for over 90 per cent of terrorist attacks in the world month after month usually using their faith to justify it might suggest there is a serious problem with a small minority.

It only took 20 young men - mostly Saudis (but we never invaded Saudi Arabia!) to commit 9-11. As a result In addition to the 3000 who died on the day hundreds of thousands of people - possibly millions - have died subsequently in the Middle East and Afghanistan because of what flowed from the actions of just 20 men. We get ISIS, Boko Haram and Al Qaeda and more.

If you don't recognise you have a problem you won't ever solve it.

A brave bystander saw the man fleeing from the truck . Followed him with is mobile phone and kept the police informed as to where he was .Being guided by this person the man was arrested by the Siegessäule not too far away
Brave brave person .

No, that isn't a more important question, because we already know that the great majority of threats come from radical Muslims. I am addressing your argument that something 'radical' needs to be done. What is this radical solution that you think would work?

There is a huge problem within Islam, there is no denying that. But by sanctioning millions, the few will win.

If you want to play extremist top trumps. There have been 2400 Islamic terror attacks spread over 59 Countries this year alone.

Nearly 100 years ago, you have proved the point it is not a modern day concern un like the Muslim terrorists we have today

We can't ignore it. Problem is, what can we do about it?

If somebody is determined to take lives, they can do so - and no amount of anti terrorist measures in the world will prevent it.

That said, I was pleased to hear about the preventative bollards being installed in other pedestrianised areas, such as Birmingham. Don't know what the mechanics of those bollards are, but I do know they'd have to be bloody good to stop a heavy lorry being driven at speed, from getting through. Many would just be flattened. I imagine smallish thick re-inforced ones would be the most effective.

We can't install tank traps without looking really desperate.

You need to have a word with yourself! Who do you think you are?

As for this latest atrocity, my heart goes out to all those poor, innocent people affected by it.

I fully expect another one soon unfortunately.

Very well said, Minnie.

And of course most German, Russians and Japanese are nice, friendly and peaceful people and were then. Didn't stop 100 million deaths when the extremists took over often with the implicit consent of a large minority.

They do support it, by turning a blind eye.

Doesn't stop the Archbishop or Pope pontificating though, does it. How do you know that their words are ignored
No reason for the Imams or Muslims in general to condemn, and condemn

Absolutely. What a hero.

I have no idea what you are talking about
I can say though that I condemn any terrorist activity

That's 46 people over a long time, Muslims kill more in one attack!

Blimey. The police should hire him. What clear thinking and bravery in what must have been shocking surroundings.

Maybe ask the open borders/all refugees welcome supporters. I'm sure they have a plan.

In hindsight it would have been better to only accept refugees coming from offical channels, but that idea was branded heartless and far right 12 Months ago.
