Russell Brand is best known as a British comedian and TV/film star, who, in addition to co-starring in the upcoming animated film "Despicable Me 2," is also a Solzhenitzyn-quoting, part-time essayist. In the wake of the barbaric beheading of a soldier in London, Brand wrote an essay in The Sun called "Blame this on madness...not Muslims."
Dean was particularly touched by the effort to defend the Muslim community from the ugly passions stirred by group blame. Brand's perspective is that mental illness is more at fault in the attack than the influence of radical Islam and that root causes must be analyzed, as well.

“It never ceases to amaze me how progressives can rationalize reality into a total lie. Of course Muslims are to blame for the beheading in the UK. Where are the protests from the Islamic community?”
You’re over-analyzing this; the Muslims are breeding the children this traitor sells his movies/entertainment to (sort of like our fast-food chains stocking increasingly Mexican menu items - they are the customers now, since we’ve stopped breeding).
When the US government approached Colombia about collaborating in fighting their drug problem, the Colombian government rightly replied that Americans had the drug problems - Colombians just had problems with providing them.
Pizz off, Russell Brand. I care for what you have to say, as you care what I have to say.
He makes my skin crawl. I imagine he’s filthy, smelly, never brushes his teeth or washes his hair. With his history of heroin addiction and alcoholism his brain probably looks like swiss cheese.
I really liked him in that Gladiator movie though.
Islam is a mental disease.
Actually all this mooslim’s influences should be scrutinized.
I think there is something to this (not that I bothered to read the article).
I believe that Islamic societies are so brutal to their women that everyone born into the society develops PTSD, which is passed down to the next generation.
Imagine a child born into a family with a tyrannical father who routinely beats and rapes the mother (or at least believes that he may do that at will, even if he chooses not to), and who controls her every action. The mother (and the father) then groom the female children into this role of submission.
The sons repeatedly watch their mother and sisters being threatened, abused controlled and even murdered.
What are the odds that the children in such a family will grow up without severe pathologies (self loathing, misogyny, sociopathy, uncontrollable violent ragefullness and God knows what else)?
Now imagine a society in which such families are the norm and and held up by that society’s religious and legal authorities as desirable, virtuous role models.
There you have the Muslim society, in a nutshell — a generational cycle of mental derangement on a widespread scale viewed as normalcy.
P.S. Any Muslims offended by my analysis? Here’s a quarter — call Eric Holder. P.P.S. Hey Eric Holder — EAT ME.
Most of the brave British men got killed off in WW2.
This is the spawn of what got left behind.

Can be said for much of Europe. There are few big, tall strapping men over there. Most are skinny, balding metrosexual Euro-weenies.
That wouldn’t faze them, see Amy Biehl and her parents.
I don’t blame Muslims. I blame the Globalists who ship them and the ten of millions of other Third worlders into every Western nation. They then use the politicians they own to order the military and police to protect the interlopers, force the taxpayers to pay for their food, medical, housing, cell phones, and everything else and then use their Corporate Media to label any native that objects a “RACIST!”
The butcher's bill for WWI in the UK was almost a million men dead - 3 percent of the total population. Plus almost 1.5 million wounded. Adult males comprised about 57% of the population of Britain in the 1911 census.
THAT was where the problem started. An article I read years ago in American Heritage Magazine observed, "I knew that all Mum's sweethearts but Dad died in the Great War, and all Auntie's . . . but it didn't hit home until I saw Tyne Cot (the largest British WWI cemetery in Europe)."
liberals can’t handle the truth.
they hate the people telling them the truth more than the murdering jihadis.
i am willing to blame the murdering and terrorism on ‘madmen not muslims’ so long as the author is willing to blame islam for producing so many madmen all over the world
the problem is Obviously in the islamicist teachings, based yes -—as they say-— on their koran book and how they understand its teachings apply to them today
until islam gets a genuine Reformation (which many here believe will never occur), the author has to realize that all these ‘madmen’ don’t just spring up out of nowhere..
there is a source...
No we cannot shut our borders.
All muslims are guilty by inaction. If they want to be taken as good people then stand up and condemn those in your “religion” that we are fighting.
hes, that’s what the whole world is praying for
There hasn’t been anyone funny out of England since Rowan Atkinson...
I guess Brand is saying (unwittingly...or half-wittedly) that Islam causes mental illness. I can support that theory. Well done, Brand!
