Maybe this mental illness explanation is not such a bad idea after all.

They can lock people up for being mentally ill, after all, can't they?

So if we assume that no sane person would massacre a group of children, or cut the testicles off their victims and stuff them into their victims mouths, as happened at Le Bataclan, and if we rightly don't want to demonise millions of peaceful people who happen to have been born into a religion which they can't leave because they'll get killed, then just call all Islamists insane and then they can be locked away in Broadmoor and the world becomes a safer place.

And stop destroying secular governments to the benefit of 'moderate' headchoppers, of course.

That's MI5's job. If they are capable of doing it.

They don't help themselves. I was on the tube this morning it's a warm day but fella gets on stands right next to me wearing a big coat.

Beards don't help either. they can't all be ZZ top or Zac Brown band fans.

It seems to be accepted wisdom that 5 have been doing an amazing job for the past few years. Of course, those of us who are instinctively on the side of SIS will always be a little sceptical about The Competititon.

We need a new division set up especially for this problem. They will need a tremendous name. Cobra is excellent.
Operation Temperer I'm not sold on.

Think you might be on to something here, a. Bit soviet, but there you are.
Actually, it is interesting that the question of internment is getting into mainstream discussion. A lot of people confronted with the argument 'You can't just lock people up without a trial' do actually seem to be replying 'Why not?'

Once, at a buffet, I had the misfortune to eat a piece of tempura cucumber. It was quite the most wrong thing I've ever put in my mouth. I can't think what sort of twisted fvck would tempura a slice of cucumber, but I can only assume he's now in prison.

Internment is expensive, of course, and we're already short of space in the prison system.

We need to be considering more efficient answers. Like machine guns with a simple swivel mounting. :mowing:

Come, come. We're not animals. That said, I'm sure these chaps would be likely to attempt to escape at some point. At which stage, regrettably, we would have no choice but to open fire. :-(

Not my cup of tea, I agree. Connery man myself, naturally.

Opinions vary in the matter. I am no dogmatist.

I rather like Craig except that he looks like a dwarf. Is he really short? One suspects so.

A quick calculation suggests he to be less than 6ft so neither dwarf nor tall.

There is the old Irish saying however that you don't need to be tall to shoot an evil global terrorist.
