That answer has displayed, yet again, a complete lack of understanding of the individual and societal drivers that cause radicalisation. Religion is the excuse, but anger has causal connections to people's material wellbeing, such as economic stability, subjugation as a group or as an individual (think about the M.O. for all those US school shooters, they're often like your example of jihadi jake).

The simple answer of 'Islam is the target' is at best selfish to our physical selves in our own time and leaves any manner of ongoing issues for future generations to deal with.

Bondi??? Come on..

What do you reckon the beliefs of the Bondi stabber were? Despite the false and societally damaging claims of Islamist, he was defintiely not, and probably christian or atheist (doesn't say what though). What about Desi Freeman, or any of the murderers in this post.

These are all radicalised people, harming others. Islamist terror attacks might be more numerous against Australians now, but they won't be forever, and by targeting the group and not the root societal causes you leave the real problems to fester and harm different groups of people, out of each different group (religious or other) some will be radicalised.

Stalin, Pol-pot, Lenin, Mao all claimed at one stage or another to be atheists, they're examples for you of truly terrible atheists, they had communist ideologies, but not religion. I find it hard to believe Stalin really had an ideology though, he was just pedo cunt I think, so of you really want a non-ideological mass murderer try him, or the Kim (NK) clan.

Also, you can say Islam is a bad ideology, and you want nothing to do with it. Thats okay, best thing to do is move through your life without going out of your way at every instance to attack Islam as a group with examples of individuals of that group showing their personal extremism. By attacking the group, we only fan the persuasive flames of the radicals exploiting the existing prejudices and causes of societal dejection these often, young men, feel.

To take your examples of the bridge flag cunts. If you blamed those people, and said what dickheads are they, instead of blaming all Islam for what ISIS represents, (which is how it comes across in your comments), I think you'd have a much better reaction from people. But instead your comments flatten the beliefs of millions of people under one homogeneous identity.

A personal source to end: I grew up with a Muslim, one of the most peaceful bastards I know. I also grew up with atheists, one of those I just found out beat and emotionally tormented his ex-wife. Go figure.

When atheists shoot up Bondi killing 15, take hostages in the lindt cafe

Incompetence/luck is the only reason this type of scenario didn't play out in Perth yesterday.

Morons are going to Moron. They come in all shapes and sizes, all nationalities and religions (or no religion). Lumping them all together with people who aren't morons is just silly.
