Replacing Zlatan's goals was the priority this window, contributions from elsewhere in the team were minimal last season so Morata would have still left question marks for me in that department. His first touch and hold up play is indeed a bit of a concern; the opposition won't be as open as...

Only a matter of time eh. Well for something on this scale at least, Islamophobic attacks do happen and take many forms but are a bit of an under the radar thing usually. The Times: :( Jobless :( ‘lone wolf’ :( Darren Osborne held over attack on Finsbury Park mosque :( ^ :lol: Anyways There...

The figurehead of the Muslim Brotherhood, an authoritarian political movement that wishes to impose an ultra-conservative interpretation which essentially at its' core is based on an imagined time and society of the prophet. 'Imagined' because there was very little written then (it was an oral...

Yes, a perversely manufactured radical theology. 2:190 Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Wiki: Islamic rules of war for all the major schools.

It's true that they depend greatly on the ignorance of their recruits, Mark. You see, in the times of revelation the Arabs lived by way of collectivism necessitated by the arid and harsh conditions of the desert. The Quran put the onus on the individual for his personal deeds, carving the man...

Solid stuff. And calling her out on: Home Office may not publish terrorist funding report amid claims it focuses on Saudi Arabia "which the UK recently approved £3.5bn worth of arms export licences to" Theresa may: "enough is enough" "too tolerant of intolerance" True dat, Prime Minister.

First it's important that we can appreciate the state/condition of the human mind/consciousness from this time and place. The revelations are to an illiterate man from a broken, tribalistic society "obdurate in disbelief and hypocricy and more likely to not know the limits which God has sent...

What specific role do you believe this 'religious component' plays? An interesting article I posted in the good reads thread: Reborn Into Terrorism Why are so many ISIS recruits ex-cons and converts? What books. Show me these texts. Where? Prove your statements.

Just coming back from a remembrance gathering for the victims of the Manchester attack near East London Mosque. My heart goes out to the victims and their families in their darkest hours. Our children are most precious of all things in the world so it's been especially difficult to digest...

I really hope the James Rodriguez links are just paper talk/Real trying to arouse interest. While I appreciate the temptation to go in for a player of his quality when available, we need a different kind of option in the position/role he'd occupy - an injection of pace in the...

We've had a few displays this season where our counter attacking play (particularly before Zlatan got injured) didn't work out and ended up defending deep without effective outlets. For this there are contributory factors including but not limited to: Martial being disappointing, Micky taking...

yeah pags quit trolling or i'll have to report you to our reinvigorated modmins

It's really how all the aforementioned problems came to combine which has got us to this point - an environment where the ambience isn't an enthusing one and long time members that regularly contribute valued content begin to drop off in activity. You can't make up for that with giveaways/social...

Didn't think I'd have to clarify it, again. My very first post in this thread was:

You may have missed it Natch, but I actually released a statement in regards to that (which included an apology and reasoning behind crassness, as well as the logic behind my initial thinking) not too long ago in a thread on this forum section. If you missed it, I concluded that if my son (this...

I'm a firm believer in a liberal, plural and secular society myself. Proud of these very British values. I do receive your point, but I wasn't asking necessarily for protections. Just conveying the feelz. No beef with discourse. I take your point of the benefits of the 'ignore' function...

As in I'm not usually inclined to ignore people's views just because they're offensive. I'd be able to challenge those views, rather than having them rinsed and repeated. Rene summed it up very well. I'm not talking about opinions I don't like here, I speak of the very blatant trolling. So...

While it's true that is an an adopted form of identity, I don't think this characterisation fully appreciates the weight of it in a Muslim person's psychological structures. When you are raised a particular way (Arabic classes as children, observing Ramadan with family, forming character and...

I don't need nor care to hang around in spaces (on the internet or otherwise) where a huge part of my identity is openly and regularly violated. If the shoe were to be the on other foot, It's less 'liberal pluralism' and more 'hate preacher', 'radical', 'fundamentalist.
