How Europe betrays education - afterword to a terrorist attack in Manchester

The attack in Manchester is not news three times. Even before the first details became clear, we could immediately assume that the terrorist is not a Buddhist, not a synthoid, not a Jew, not a Christian, but a representative of the peaceful religion of Islam.

We could also boldly assume that among the votes condemning this attack, the voices of Muslim imams and even Islamic countries can be counted on the fingers. These imams will save all their fundamental condemnation for those infidels who dare to call peaceful Muslims terrorists.

We could safely assume that Guardian will certainly write that there is nothing to respond to the terrorist attack and that there is nothing about terrorism in the Qur'an (and did not fail, wrote).

We could also safely assume that the British authorities would say “We Stand United” (not to break us), ETC - and they will do nothing more, because everything else would mean too obvious questions and unpleasant actions.

Nevertheless, in this terrorist attack there is one part of attention. Salman Abedi (exploding suicide bilberry) was the son of a certain Ramadan Abedi, a high-ranking manager of the Libyan Al-Qaeda, who escaped from Libya in 1993 and received political asylum in England.

After the revolution, Abdi-Sr. returned to Libya and led to Tripoli a certain “central power of security”-that is, speaking in a simple way, a semi-aligned Islamist gang. Immediately after the terrorist attack, Mr. Abedi said that his son is not a terrorist. “We do not believe in the killing of the innocent,” said Abedi Sr., “it is not us.” It is known that the boy had just returned from Libya that he was trained in the terrorist camp and that the explosive device that he used did not gather himself. It was quite professional.

Question to backfill: and who, guess with three times, gathered a professional explosive device for a boy whose father in Libya leads a gang of professional terrorists?

It is also impossible to say that the deceased was an unknown loner: the special services of several countries, as it turns out, knew about his connections with ISIS banned in Russia, with Belgian terrorists, about a trip to Syria and Libya, about training camps. Out of the occasion, acquaintances and neighbors rang several times on the hot line, he wandered along the street with the cry of Allah Akbar! ” And the last time the imam of the local mosque conveyed to him when the future terrorist almost fought with him after the sermon. All these circumstances, of course, did not prevent Salman's sister from saying that her brother was a kind and peaceful person, and if he did something, then only from a sharp sense of protest against injustice. Terrorism is a family business.

The reaction to the attack, as I said, was quite predictable. Elections are going on in England now, and a certain number of freight corbinists, of course, did not miss the chance to say that the attack organized a bloody regime to raise his chances of elections (hello to ours are the same). The star of the X-Factor Steve Brookstein, for example, suggested that it was an operation under the “alien flag” and that “dark forces in the government” were to blame for it (well, not a peaceful religion of Islam, a stump is clear!).

Another part of the beautiful people was concerned that this incident will be a pretext of the Islamophobes and the Nazis to be bumped into hatred. “We will not let the incident use the #manchester as a preposition for Islamophobia! Stand along with our wonderful Muslim brothers and do not make the release of innocent people, ”their tweets stoke up.

But most of the establishment adhered to the views, the excellent exponent of which is the new French president Emmanuel Macron. Actually, that's why he became a protege of the French establishment in the elections.

The attack, according to the views of Macron et al, is just such a natural phenomenon.

There are shows, there is spring, but there are terrorist attacks. You can’t do anything about it. You need to fight with climate changes, but it will not work to fight terrorist attacks.

And in no case can you blame the peaceful religion of Islam of anything. Over a billion Muslims in the world - do you want to quarrel with all of them?

The problem is that this point of view is insolvent. The naked eye can be seen what could be done in this case.

* Firstly, it was not necessary to give political asylum to the representative of Al-Qaeda, even if he fled from Gaddafi. So let him stay there in Libya ...

• Secondly, Salman Abedi, as soon as he began to scream on the streets "Allah Akbar!" And to prove to everyone he meets how great it is to be a suicide bomber should deprive the UK citizenship and send it from the country. Note any violence, this was not on any side. The boy suffered terribly that the damned Kafirs oppress him. The flag in his hands - let him go to Syria and builds a caliphate there.

• Thirdly, when he came from his training camp, he had to be arrested.

Under the fulfillment of any of these conditions, there would be no terrorist attack, and 22 people, including an eight -year -old girl, would be alive. Moreover, the fulfillment of these conditions would prevent any terrorist attack committed over the past year in Europe, as well as in Russia: the St. Petersburg suicide bomber, we note, also loved to shout “Allah Akbar!” On Facebook.

These considerations are so elementary, so obvious, so simple that the current cherry -based European establishment cannot allow them to discuss their discussions. He can only brand, call those who offer them, “fascist” and “Islamophobe”. “You betray European values!”, “You are inelerant!”, “You want to quarrel us with a billion of Muslims!”

Therefore - finally - about European values. You will laugh, but Europe was not always the free, tolerant, striving for progress in Europe, which we saw it in the 19th and XX centuries. For more than a thousand years (since the recognition of Christianity by state religion in 380 AD and before the beginning of the Renaissance), Europe has been immersed in the most terrible totalitarian darkness. Civilization collapsed. Throughout the Roman Empire, cement was forgotten, in Britain they forgot the pottery. The laity was forbidden to teach literacy: she was known to only Christian priests who used writing to compile monstrous fakes like Konstantinov Dara or “Pseudo-Iseria Decree”. They also used it for total censorship: in the X century. There was a wonderful monk Simeon Metafrast, who was engaged in the same as the Ministry of Truth with Orwell: he ruled the old lives of saints in accordance with the new brand of Christianity.

The very idea of ​​scientific knowledge of the world was at that time heresy. Filastry from Breshia smashed heretics, daring to assume that earthquakes occur for natural reasons. The earth could not rotate around the sun, because then how could Jesus Navin stop it?! Starting from the 380s, military operations against heretics were carried out throughout the empire, and the Papal Legat shouted the famous: “Kill everyone, the Lord recognizes his own!”

This Europe - this inertness, this religious totalitarianism, this intolerance - Europe overcame, and this overcoming and made it present -day Europe.

But this inertness did not give up without a fight: back in 1766 in France in the city of Abbeville, a certain Chevalier de la Barr was executed by the verdict of the local court for being discovered by an “encyclopedic dictionary”.

And no, not all Christians then burned de la Barrov, but we will be frank: their absolute majority approved such burning.

Imagine what would happen to Europe, if then Voltaire, Didro, the ministers of Louis XV, Vigi and Tori said: “We must respect the opinion of the ignorant people,” instead of saying that they must enlighten him. But the case was not about 5-7 percent of the population, as now! It was about 99 percent of the population.

No, Islam is not a religion of terrorists, just as Christianity was not a religion of the inquisitors, even despite the papal legate and Chevalier de la Barra. But Islam is a monotheistic religion. All monotheistic religions are totalitarian by nature and, if we give them complete freedom in the organization of society, lead to exactly what we observed in Europe from the times of the Albigan campaigns. That modern European left -wing establishment, which does everything so that the native of the Middle East moved to Europe retains into inviolability those customs and views that made his country backward - betrays first of all the very ideals that made Europe Europe.
