Truck of peace hits New Orleans

[TomC]

Police released a mugshot of a woman convicted of terrorism offences wearing a niqab – after she complained an earlier custody image showed her without a head covering. Jurors heard Farishta Jami, 36, had been preparing to travel to Afghanistan with her children, planning for them to become martyrs for Islamic State, when police raided her address in November 2023. The single mother-of-four had pledged allegiance to Islamic State and displayed a ‘clear interest in the use of children in warfare’ - including videos of children carrying out executions, the court was told.

You know the end is coming when this sort of thing is going on.

I'd date it back, at least, to when that Christian mother drowned her four children to protect them from Hell. I believe her name is Andrea Yates.

On the bright side, at least the end won't be from climate change, right?

Europe is unravelling right before your eyes. Aging indigenous population being replaced with mass immigration with people that have no desire to assimilate, unable to defend itself (see Ukraine and the complete inability to help there) and its headlong rush to destroy its economy with net zero policies etc.

It's fucked.

 

[Politesse]

Indigenous population?

 

[TSwizzle]

Indigenous population?

??

 

[Politesse]

I suppose the marker of being "indigenous" is belonging to a faith that hails from Jerusalem, as opposed to "foreigners" who belong to a faith that began 1500 km away in Mecca? Or do you just mean "white"?

I use the term indigenous loosely of course but you knew that. You do you fella.

In what way is Europe's population aging any more than USA's is? Considering how moronic many Americans are it might be good if USA had more immigrants to raise national intelligence. Also it is a fact that children and grandchildren of immigrants often stray away from parents' faith to native beliefs (in the case of UK this is generally atheism or agnosticism). Even if retain the beliefs it will be in mild form.
Far from unravelling, Europe is becoming more united.

Ukraine is being helped (by Europe and others), and that help is being stepped up due to withdrawal of USA assistance by Trump.
Europe's economy is in a much better state than USA, and the relative position will continue to improve as USA economy collapses (ignoring any effect that is transferred, as nations are not economically isolated).
From most viewpoints it is USA that is fucked, and not just economically but socially and politically too.

In that the youngsters of Europe are not having children to sustain the population. Europe was hit particularly hard when covid ravaged its elderly.

About time then.

Europe's economy is in a much better state

Europe is almost bankrupt and will go tits up if it keeps up with the net zero nonsense.

Sounds like alarmism to me.

If Covid ravaged Europe's elderly then it would have less aged people not more. But it was USA that was most ravaged by Covid, with one million dead due to Trump, but MAGA are so stupid and ignorant that they don't remember or even know this.
Can you provide birthrate figures to support your claim about Europe's young, including the same statistics for USA's young people. Incidentally, many people are waiting till their 30s or even 40s to have children.

Ukraine has been receiving help from Europe, Australia, Canada, and others for four years, and under Biden also from USA.
Net zero relates to ecology and not directly to economics, but there will be grave costs for the whole world if climate change is not ameliorated, and in many regards, not just economics.
If you look at actual economic statistics Europe's economy is strong. Of course these figures are generally a year or two old, and don't take into account USA's current economic decline under Trump, so will become more favorable for Europe in comparison to USA in 2025.

If Covid ravaged Europe's elderly then it would have less aged people not more.

Europe's population has been in decline for decades due to the younger generation not reproducing.

Yes. That's a good thing.

Or are you too young to remember The Population Bomb?

It's only been fifty years since the biggest existential threat on the horizon was exponential population growth.

I guess they were all just so depressed about the Muslims invading they couldn't fuck anymore? Not sure how you see this as an immigrant problem.

And I don't accept your definition of who is and isn't a European, which is obvious enough despite your refusal to clarify. Europe has never been at its best when she turns paranoid and xenophobic. The whole world knows all too well what European nativism looks like when it is enthroned, and it's a grim memory indeed.

Hardly

Not sure how you see this as an immigrant problem.

The problem is that if the natives aren’t reproducing, the replacements need to be brought in.

And I don't accept your definition of who is and isn't a European, which is obvious enough despite your refusal to clarify.

No surprise, I’m sure you’re one of those people who can’t accept the definition of woman.

You’re about to get a refresher on it soon.

Sounds like immigrants are solving a problem, then. Not causing one.

You’re about to get a refresher on it soon.

Ooh, Nazi threats. Soooo scary. They may cause a lot of trouble, but they can't fight for shit. Remember how the last war against a fascist nativist ascendancy ended? And how quickly? Six years, ha! Absolute joke of a "Reich". The next one will be, too.

To be fair, that was a whole 0.6% of the advertised duration...
