Blimey, I don't think anyone speaking/writing from W1A actually praises ISIL. Rather, the Narrative - which by implication Neil buys into - insists on a distinction between the beliefs of "Islamists" and "real" Moslems (apparently there must be 2 different Korans in print). So what's the big deal?<br /><br />Neil could have spread his net wider to condemn the passive and not-so-passive fifth columns of believers (both religious and political) in France and here? Granted this would have taken real courage and might (although unlikely) have sparked some genuine soul-searching by his employer. As it is (Godwin acknowledged), Neil's rant is as brave as going on air in 1942 to give Hitler (who wouldn't have been listening) an earful to buoy up the French resistance and depress the Germans while ignoring the goings-on in Vichy - and just as effective.Umbongonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-29498481070418066352015-11-21T12:21:06.014+00:002015-11-21T12:21:06.014+00:00Unfortunately the France Mr Neil describes no long...Unfortunately the France Mr Neil describes no longer exists & he proves it by quoting a whole list of names from the past. Any similar British listing would suffer from the same deficiency. <br /><br />The truth is that European civilisation is a hollowed-out shell, its Christian heritage replaced by a secular vacuum & a philosophy that can imagine nothing more noble than. "Leave us alone so we can enjoy our stuff." <br /><br />That is a mentality that very few of us will die for and will, I fear, in the long haul, prove no match for radical Islam.
