The world, and especially Europe, is losing patience with *****. They're going to have to do a better job of policing their own. That's the only thing that's going to make a dent in this problem. We can sit here all day and talk about how this is a small group of extremists etc. However, at some point nobody's going to care.

Polish Interior Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said the attack showed the European Union's system of migrant relocation was wrong. "It is dangerous. Europe should wake up," he said. "

And he is right!

There are no checks on illegals being shipped to Europe.It is a free for all where backgrounds,ages or reasons for coming to Europe are not considered.

European culture is being eroded and purposefully destroyed.

Amazingly, it is those in power such as Angela Merkel and Herman Van Rompuy that among others are leading this invasion.

They are not acting in the best interest of Europeans!

European culture is being eroded and purposefully destroyed.

It isn't, you know. It really isn't.

It wasn't when similar comments were directed at the Jewish populations during the dark days of German nazism and it's not being eroded now.

European culture is being eroded and purposefully destroyed.

There are some politicians in Europe and influential clergymen who seem to think the ideas of secularism can be eroded to accommodate the views of the religious. This has to stop. Part of the reason why Europe has some of the world's richest, most tolerant and progressive countries is because of secular or functionally secular government. Welcome anybody who supports these ideas, and do not give an inch to those who'd like to change this.

Update: Spanish police begin fresh manhunt for new suspected terror van driver

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/spanish-police-begin-fresh-manhunt-moroccan-younes-abouyaaqoub-barcelona-attack-1635713

Spanish police have launched a fresh manhunt for Younes Abouyaaqoub, the Moroccan national named in the Spanish media as the fourth suspect in the Barcelona van attack.

He is believed to be the suspected driver of the white Fiat van that mowed down 13 people on Las Ramblas street on Thursday (17 August) evening.

Earlier, police said that the suspected driver was Moussa Oukabir, 17, who was among the five terror suspects shot dead by police after a foiled attack in Cambrils, west of Barcelona. However, late on Friday, Catalan police chief Josep Trapero told local TV that their theory stating Oukabir was the driver now "had less weight".

Next time they will just slam the vehicle packed with explosives at a crowd!  The fundamental problem was someone refused to adopt 'Secularism' while they were living on a secularism soil! Nobody can help them if they refuse to choose the right path! The more tolerant society is the more advocating them to behave hostile!

Whether or not they adopt to the secularism of their countries predominant culture is not the issue. Violence and murder of innocent people is the issue. Europe will not face up to Islamic extremism and refuses to name Islamic supremacy as the culprit.
