Take those doctors in the bomb plot in London...(take them please)."<BR/><BR/>Good point, in terms of actual terrorism, as opposed to the mob violence stuff going on in France, I would agree, you have to be smart to organise successful terrorist attacks.<BR/><BR/>On the IQ issue, I agree racial differences are more complex than just than one or two markers like IQ. "Economically or educationally competent" would probably be a better terms to use, as they don't make assumptions about the reasons behind the phenomena in question<BR/><BR/>Although economically successful immigrants are usually more law-abiding and can make positive contributions, I acknowledge that they can potentially use their economic/intellectual power against the interests of the host nation.<BR/><BR/>This is a massive issue, which doesn't get discussed much on immigration sites.<BR/><BR/>In terms of Arab immigration, I think that a lot of Middle Eastern people have very hot-headed temperaments, and it very hard to say whether this is caused by nature or nurture (possibly a combination of both) therefore it is best to air on the side of caution and restrict Muslim immigration.<BR/><BR/>I don't like to be over-critical of Islam, because I think it may actually serve a useful purpose in terms of providing social stability in overpopulated muslim countries.<BR/><BR/>If you have a unruly population to deal with then perhaps a "tough" religion like Islam helps with law and order and so on.<BR/><BR/>I also think that some right-liberals want to demonise Islam so as to justify later day liberal crusades, which will only bleed the West economically, and leave it more economically and politically dependent on China and India.<BR/><BR/>I am however, in agreement with right liberals in believing that Islam is not compatible with Western liberalism and christianity, since it doesn't acknowlege the division between church and state found in the West.<BR/><BR/>Hence, I tend to see Islam like an 'exotic pest' which is best kept in the environment from where it came, rather than demonised.Mike Courtmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15226171376902020196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023482402423762474.post-79322093947202313052007-10-21T16:37:00.000+00:002007-10-21T16:37:00.000+00:00Actuallu, it's the *high* IQ islamoterrorists who ...Actuallu, it's the *high* IQ islamoterrorists who are the problem.

However, I would ...I'd say you are a realist NZCon. However, I would argue that a high IQ Muslim population would be an even larger threat. They would be able to use our media and laws against us even more effectively. 9/11 put the Muslim greivance theatre into overdrive. Aside from extra airport scrutiny, they were barely even noticed before then, yet now even countries with barely a 2% Muslim population are caving into their outrageous demands.<BR/><BR/>I would try to stay away from the "low IQ immigrants are the problem" argument because that opens the door to high IQ Third World immigrants which acts as a brain drain on their respective countries and disadvanges our high IQ citizens at the behest of the lowest corporate bidders.geza1https://www.blogger.com/profile/12929713316335525469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023482402423762474.post-59620213321726217922007-10-21T04:49:00.000+00:002007-10-21T04:49:00.000+00:00Sorry, that first sentence was supposed to read:"I...Sorry, <BR/><BR/>that first sentence was supposed to read:<BR/><BR/>"I'm not particularly worried about Islam per se...".Mike Courtmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15226171376902020196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023482402423762474.post-55206435354726529992007-10-21T04:43:00.000+00:002007-10-21T04:43:00.000+00:00I'm not particularly about Islam per se, it's been...I'm not particularly about Islam per se, it's been around over 1000 years.

G. Biv you have --<BR/><BR/>red<BR/>orange<BR/>yellow<BR/>green <BR/>blue<BR/>indigo<BR/>violet<BR/><BR/>or going the other way (and less euphonious in English) we can do <BR/>"VIBGYOR" -- sounds Russian to me:<BR/><BR/>violet<BR/>indigo<BR/>blue<BR/>green<BR/>yellow <BR/>orange <BR/>red<BR/><BR/>In a real spectrum it is so hard to see where one part of it ends and the next color begins. They simply blend, but at some point there is distinct difference.<BR/><BR/>I may be off track here, but is that a way of explaining what you mean by the circle?Dymphnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11332644582520636279noreply@blogger.com
