Dalrympe om galenskap och religiös fanatism

Minoritetens tyranni kallar Theodor Dalrymple islamismens terror i en artikel idag.
Just before Christmas, a man entered a police station in Tours, cut the throat of a policeman and injured two others while shouting “Allah akbar!” A day later, another man shouted “Allah akbar!” as he drove around Dijon, deliberately running over 11 people. He was probably mad, but madness and religious fanaticism are not mutually exclusive. Ramdani fails to explain why France does not have similar problems with its Vietnamese immigrants.
Vi bör ta hans fråga på största allvar. Och hans påpekande:
... a handful of fanatics can easily have a much more significant social effect than a large number of peaceful citizens. There is more to fear in one terrorist than to celebrate in 99 well-integrated immigrants. And if only 1 percent of French Muslims were inclined to terrorism, this would still be more than 50,000 people, more than enough to create havoc in a society. The jihadists now have a large pool from which to draw, and there are good reasons to think that more than 1 percent of young Muslims in France are distinctly anti-French.
Proportionerna är viktiga. Men vi bör hela tiden se realistiskt på hotet. Det kommer fler attacker, fler attentat och mer mördande i Allahs namn. Var så säkra.

  1. France maybe have other problems with its Vietnamese immigrants? Alltså vanlig enkel kriminalitet utan politiska eller religiösa motiveringar? Var det inte en vietnamesisk liga som sprängdes i Sverige i slutet av förra året? Folk som inte yttrar sig religiöst utan tyst och stilla säljer sin knark, ägnar sig åt utpressning, eller vad som normalt ingår i nationellt baserad kriminalitet. Annorlunda uttryckt: hade de vietnamesiska mördarna vrålat "Buddha är stor" under yrkesutövning hade de (kanske) fått mer rubriker i pressen.
