US, European leaders avoid best way to thwart terror attacks


Britain's May and America's Trump sure know how to ignore the elephant in the room when it comes to terror attacks. After the third one in England in 75 days, British Prime Minister May promoted stricter regulation of the internet which she claims is a 'safe space' for terrorists, without offering a shred of evidence such a draconian restriction of freedom would prevent a deranged person from driving over pedestrians. Equally delusional, Trump used the latest attack to trumpet his travel ban of Muslims from 6 predominantly Muslim nations that hasn't a prayer of passing the Constitutional smell test and is oblivious to the reality most such attacks are conducted by long term residents, even naturalized citizens.
The elephant, a Tyrannosaurus Rex actually, is that America, with British and French support and cheerleading, has been relentlessly bombing 7 Muslim nations, arming Islamic radicals to help their effort to overthrow the secular regime of Bashar Assad, and, get this, sells hundreds of billions in weaponry to Saudi Arabia which works relentlessly to spread Wahabism, the austere version of Islam which provides theological foundation for the very terrorism we claim needs eradicating.
It doesn't take much insight to understand the West has little sincere interest in ending violent attacks such as recent ones in London and Manchester. They serve the war party which uses them to further restrict our freedoms, solidify their grip on power, maintain perpetual war and pour billions into their coffers from arms sales to the very folks enabling violent attacks.
