[afrocarpus] Nice attack: Why France is struggling to cope with the terror threat (BBC’s wrong analysis)

According to BBC:

"Age of insecurity

Immigration has a long history here, integration does not.

There are large populations from France's former colonies, places like Tunisia.

Some feel their religious beliefs are trampled by a secularism that is fiercely guarded. Some see little hope in a nation which denies them a chance of success.

The forgotten suburbs that house large numbers of immigrants have erupted into protest and violence in previous years.

They are policed by tough units that fail to reflect the communities they control. It is an unhappy mix that can open the way for a minority to be radicalised and moved to violent action".

Comments:

In UK, for the last 15 years, migrants and refugees have been dispersed across the whole UK, from North to South and from East to West.

UK politicians and media seem to confuse this system with integration. This system has contributed to hiding poverty and inequality that many refugees and migrants area facing now in the UK. The UK policy is to hide migrants and refugees across the UK.

These migrants and refugees live in isolation and in poor houses which have been abandoned by white residents. When migrants and refugees are dispersed in white people's areas, the white populations leave the areas. Then with the remaining white population, you feel isolated because you have no-one to talk to and no-one will talk to you. When you are facing this situation, you too, you move for example to London or other areas where you can find other refugees and migrants.

In conclusion, having migrants and refugees living together in the same areas is not a bad thing. What is bad is racism, poverty and discrimination that they may face wherever they live.

The propaganda linking inequality and deprivation to justify terrorism attacks in France is currently carried out by BBC, CNN and some French politicians and academics. Frank Gardner of BBC even goes far by saying that terrorism in France is caused by the ban of burqa dress in France. This is an example of poor judgement. This thinking is fuelling terrorism in Europe. In Africa, some countries with predominant Muslim populations have banned burqa and no terrorism is taking place there. UK should ban burqa as well instead of keeping it because of fear of being targeted by terrorism.

Poor judgment about terrorism, inequality and deprivation linkages in France and Europe.

I do not agree with some international media, some politicians and international academics that terror in France is caused by deprivation, discrimination and youth's lack of opportunities.

This analysis is flawed because it does not explain why all terror attacks are carried out by y Muslim people only who live in the same deprived areas where other ethnic communities live. Deprivation, discrimination and youth's lack of opportunities are prevalent in all ethnic communities in Europe including Black and Asian communities who are not Muslims. Why Christian ethnic communities are not involved in terrorist attacks while they also experience deprivation, inequality and lack of opportunities?

No reasonable person can justify her/his terrorism acts and killings of innocent people by inequality and lack of opportunities.

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
When the white man came we had the land and they had the bibles; now they have the land and we have the bibles.
