urban.spaceman Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 The law is weird and definitions of crime aren't always consistent. Take these two for example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-leicestershire-40276934/pedestrians-mowed-down-in-leicester-van-attack http://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/moment-teenager-mowed-down-pedestrians-637031 Also, it's weird how some such attacks get coverage in certain national news outlets while some don't. The message should just be: don't behave like a cvnt.

ISIS have no political cause it’s about a religious cause , and wanting to crush the western way of life and Christianity and a sectarian hatred of Shia Muslims this is also an attack on the western way of like and it’s agaist a religious entity and it’s aim is strike fear into a whole group of people , to terrorise them ... for me its terrorism
SheppyFox Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 What a nasty piece of shit, like that would accomplish anything anyway.

Guys like that have a Bigoted hatred of all Catholics , I even saw a glasgow ex-rangers flag with lee rigby (rip) written on it , the ironic thing is Lee Rigby was a practicing Catholic and would have as been welcomed at Ibrox as a papal visit would be

Your statement was "Establishment of a religious based state would still be a political cause tbf". The Vatican is a religious based state regardless. Is it political? Of course it is. You can't make a statement like that and not be challenged on it.

I guess you meant the perpetrator, not me. Apologies

The Vatican is a religious based state regardless. Is it political? Of course it is. You can't make a statement like that and not be challenged on it. Not exactly sure what you're challenging though... Establishment of a state based on religious law is political as well as religious, that's not really something you can argue with.

So why make the sarcastic remark about "Must have missed the point where the Vatican... etc"? What's the political agenda behind the Vatican then? Of course there is a political reason for any state to exist. The Vatican is as political as it is religious. It will seek to extend it's influence by whatever means it needs apart from war or violence.

Because the point was on terrorism and whether IS fitted the "terrorism has to have a political motive" suggestion... As far as I'm aware the Vatican isn't currently engaging in terrorism.

As far as I'm aware the Vatican isn't currently engaging in terrorism. OK, then I agree that terrorism has to have a political motive as much as an ideological one. They go hand in hand. Conflict has always had both as a reason to go to war. Maybe The Vatican is the only secular state that doesn't engage in armed conflict in these modern times. It's not always been the case: Wars of the Papacy and the Papal States—From the Middle Ages to the birth of the modern Italian State in the 1870s, the men who served as the leaders of the Catholic Church held not only a spiritual and religious authority, but also a very real and temporal political and military power as the rulers and princes of a unique European state known as the Papal States. As rulers engaged in geopolitical and military disputes, coalitions, and negotiations, the Popes also waged war, signed treaties, and took part in all of the intrigue associated with European princes and kings of that time period. Maybe a little off topic, sorry.

Subjugation by fear of the illogical outcome of not being accepted by a heaven or a God. Do as your told or you go to hell. Really?

Crusades? Sure, a long time ago, but certainly Vatican sanctioned, in fact, commissioned, attacks on other nations.

My history isn't great, but wasn't that more a war between the holy Roman empire and the ottoman empire?
