Amira Karroum was a Gold Coast girl, daughter of a Lebanese Muslim kebab shop owner, but into parties and clubbing.
Aged 22 she moved to Sydney and became a radical. After a typical Muslim riot in Sydney she posted "**** the police, smash all cop cars" on facebook. On the 10th anniversary of 911 she posted "Worst effing night. I am proud to be a Muslim. 10 years of war for two towers"
Early this year she left Australia saying she was going to Denmark. She went to Syria to fight.
Amira was armed when she was captured, put against a wall and shot, then dismembered.
I would assume her captors had a bit of 'fun' with her before they pulled the trigger,she was hot stuff. Maybe they should make sure all those wannabe fanatics in our own countries could know her 'story'. There are some silly 'allegedly british' girls out in these places now, maybe knowing what there fate will be ,might have made them think a little perhaps not,we are dealing with radicalised religious fanatics here.
I still don't believe in direct military intervention because trying to wipe them out conventionally is just going to increase membership and create even more problem in our own countries ,despite the fact we are dealing with scum. I think if we must go to war because a serious atrocity has occured in our own countries , the focus must me to do similar to what the US and UK did to nazi germany,there must be no mercy, we must think muslim radicals and all countries who harbour them as subhumans like they do us, we should focus on wiping them out, and there should be no rules of engagement, no mercy, if needs be small tactical nukes ought be used. If we kill hundreds of thousands or more of their civilians , to win ,then that we must do.
But for now,and because I want to avoid total war This is how I would deal with the problem. But I will say this,unless we are prepared to do the above if we have no other choice , then we should stay the hell away from the middle east.
1. cut off the real lifeblood of war - money. We run the internet despite claims otherwise. We can shut down huge tranches of it at will. Shut down the pathways to electronic funding into the region. then shut down conventional pathways - men carrying cases full of cash.
2. Use these events to reduce the powers of radical Islam in the West, on the "sorry you cant be trusted - look at what your lads are doing over there..." grounds.It's important we apply our own anti terrorist laws without fear of political correctness, we must maintain a strong home front and pay for decent border security, certainly in the UK we need to seriously tighten things up. We need to make life impossible for any these radicals in our own country, I believe the UK should build a gitmo bay on one of our many small islands we have around the world. And place the worst there .
3. don't provide any refuge for anyone affected by ISIS. If they can run away to the West they will, and history shows that many of the radicals in the West came here as refugees. Force them to fight ISIS or die.
4. Inform the world that we have a long memory and there will never be a "Good Friday" or "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" forgive and forget in the future.You don't kill our citizens about think there will be any mercy.
