Countering Cameron
A pretty good counter-vector to
Supersatan Cameron's perfect recipe for infinite terrorism.
This is from Bernardito Auza, a Filipino bishop who serves as the Vatican ambassador to UN. Coming from a poor country, he actually understands humanity and gets at least PART of the truth.
“We must dry up the swamps where terrorism breeds: by education and mutual respect; by perseverance in dialogue at all levels; by the rule of law and good governance; by engaging entire local communities most at risk of radicalization and achieving their satisfactory social integration; by creating job opportunities, especially for the young, who are susceptible to terrorist propaganda,” he said.
Tabulating his points:
Irrelevant shit:
Education, dialogue, "engaging", "integration".
True:
Rule of law, RESPECT,
JOB OPPORTUNITIES.
False:
None.
Considering his careerist handicap, a pretty good record. He gets the two big points right, adds a bunch of ethereal nonsense, and does no harm. Education can be a ferocious negative when done the US/UK way, but I'm pretty sure Auza
doesn't mean Critical Queer Studies when he says education.
