Thread Name: BS: Islamic radicalism . . .
Subject: RE: BS: Islamic radicalism . . .
Jim: I am as appalled as anyone by that terrible story about the grave in Tuam. Even more horrible than the Magdalene Laundries scandal and all the other well-known Irish Catholic abuse. But how being even more horrified by the far greater, both in nastiness & in number, abuses carried out in the name of Islamism is in any way incompatible with that, I can't see. Horrible indeed; but why instance it, except as a none-too-convincing exercise in whataboutery? I mean, this is

[look up there ☝☝]

a thread about Islamic radicalism. If you want a thread about iniquities committed by some Christians, there are plenty you could refresh, or you could start yet another. But what is the point of citing it here -- except to divert attention from what the thread is actually supposed to be about?
