'Religion of peace' is not a harmless platitude per Spectator Blogs

The most recent Islamist terrorist attacks across the world have left me profoundly depressed and scared for the future of the civilised West. 

Whilst I ponder my future plans, which may well take me a long way away from Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, have a read of the whole of Douglas Murray's piece for The Spectator - http://blogs.spectator.co.uk/coffeehouse/2015/06/religion-of-peace-is-not-a-harmless-platitude/

Here's an extract:

'... Because the truth is there for all to see. To claim that people who punish people by killing them for blaspheming Islam while shouting 'Allah is greatest' has 'nothing to do with Islam' is madness. Because the violence of the Islamists is, truthfully, only to do with Islam: the worst version of Islam, certainly, but Islam nonetheless.'

Do read the whole article and think about that which it raises.
