After the Manchester attack: How can Britain better engage its Muslims?

MAY 23, 2017 —In the months before the May 22 suicide bombing in the city of Manchester, England, the British were in a lively debate about efforts to counter the radicalization of Muslims. No doubt the mass killing at a concert by a 22-year-old local man will revive the debate. Yet, given the country’s pioneering interventions in its Muslim communities, the rest of the world can still learn from how it has deterred both extremists and would-be ones.

Under a government strategy known as Prevent, more than 8,000 people have been referred for possible inclusion in anti-radicalization programs since 2012. At the same time, security forces have been on alert for the possible return of hundreds of people who left Britain since 2014 to join Islamic State in Syria and Iraq. Officials claim that more than a dozen potential terrorist attacks have been thwarted.

Before the Manchester bombing, the last major attack in the country was the 2005 train and bus bombings in London. Despite this, Britons worry that the country is not doing enough – or is doing the wrong thing.

The heart of the debate is deciding on the proper approach in dealing with young Muslims.

The heart of the debate is deciding on the proper approach in dealing with young Muslims.

Good friggin grief, we're watching the self-imposed death sentence of a once great civilization.

"Why do they hate us; what have we done to make them radicalize?"

The Brits need to apply “Rule .303” in dealing with the Mohammedans.

The best way to engage young muslims is from 100+ yards with a scoped rifle.

how about shaking off the dhimmihood, and putting them on a nice boat and returning them to the glistening shores of their homeland

Give them your young fertile daughters. Turn your sons into Enuchs so they can be slaves to the Muslims. That’s for starters.

I’d recommend engaging them with small arms first.

The best way to deal with young Moham-madmen is to kill them.

This all started with excuses for poverty. Once you stop holding people accountable in one area it just spreads.
