Could The Unthinkable Happen?

[Khandro]

'In the four European countries most targeted by terror attacks -- Britain, France, Belgium and Germany -- the number of official extremists has reached 66,000. That sounds like a real army -- on active duty.'
Could we see guerilla fighting on the streets of Europe?

[Togo]

A certainty.

[derekpara]

If it is a certainty then the sooner the better before the odds get greater.

[FrillyPancake]

Absolutely and this has always been my fear unfortunately

[Baldric]

A few months ago I was shouted down for suggesting we were heading towards a Civil War on the Streets, believe me it's coming if things continue as they are at the moment, and NO, I am not in favour of it

[Zacs-Master]

interesting question. Once their enclaves are discovered, I'm of a mind to believe vigilante groups could form and attack them, as with peadophiles. I'm sure certain right wing 'organisations' are considering it right now.

[FrillyPancake]

I believe that with the police at their full capacity, and intelligence / security at severe / critical at any given point something has to "give" mix this in with the people just having enough then I think it's inevitable. I agree - I am also not in favour, but I can't see any other alternative to it. Sometimes I just want to move somewhere that has peace - goodness knows where that is - but there must be somewhere lol

[Khandro]

Beirut was (well into my lifetime), a sophisticated beautiful place where people went for the first class hotels and restaurants, you could ski in the morning and swim and relax on the fine Mediterranean beaches in the afternoon.
Thoughts then, that it could be torn apart descending into street by street violence so easily, would have been as unthinkable as street fighting in the capitals of Europe is to us today.

[dieseldick]

its coming !!!

blame the left

[youngmafbog]

Of course it could happen. I too have been howled down for suggesting such things in the past. Be interesting to see what the liberal elite on here do to you!

[FrillyPancake]

Aye Diesel, I agree wholeheartedly. Myself and my husband were just talking about this very thing last night, and his words (not mine) were the left are the one's to ruin this world as we know it. Sadly I tend to agree with him....

[Garaman]

Yes, frighteningly it could happen.

Out of interest, on here when people refer to the 'liberal elite' do they actually mean the liberal elite, or are they simply referring to anyone who is left wing?

[Peter Pedant]

the only unthinkable thing that may happen
is Labour win the general election

no- will ( as in 'is it very likely' as in will happen tomorrow) the terroristen grow wings and use drones to bomb radioactive germ bombs to rain down on Buckingham Palace - as little children glowing with white hot radioactivity scream pitifully....
o God another normal day on AB

[Peter Pedant]

erm this IS an irony thread innit

[-Talbot-]

There are plenty of nutters out there waiting for the nod.

[Peter Pedant]

anything good in the removed answer ?
just asking

[HansUrbancka]

It would be a credit to AB if we were told why an answer has been removed.

Anyway, back to the Question....... Yes,if Labour were elected in the UK.

Until the last General Election, I voted Labour. Perhaps at last, I have' arrived' and for the second time in my life will be voting Conservative.

Hans.

[Kromovaracun]

What's the link that you're getting this from, Khandro?

[anotheoldgit]

If it were to happen, be interesting to see on which side would the none radical Muslims fight?

[naomi24]

It doesn't bear thinking of, but yes, it could happen.
