Oh please. The internet also means it's never been easier to disseminate fake news and extremist views.

You keep saying that like it's your comfort blanket. Extremists don't need to be in a majority. They just need enough of the wider population to be gullible.

Yet he doesn't believe in the New Start Treaty on Nuclear weaponry, yet he wants to have co-operation with Putin

Trump or his team will create awkward moments every day while he is in office.

I think there have been a few already to be quite honest

^ the fun has only begun

Of course it is, but I stand by what I state. A lot of people from one country will have friends from all over the world via facebook and various other things. Not to mention world travel, media and so on. People from the west raise and donate billions of pounds to third world muslim countries. The people who are affected by extremist on the internet will probably be going that way any way. Yes, the internet and media will affect some negatively, but it will affect many more positively, otherwise your's have bombs going off left right and centre, not a few isolated cases over the years.

There is a reason why there is an outcry about this suspention of people from Muslim countries that are openly hostile to the west, in Somalia they even ban samosas becasue they are 'too Christian' this is the level of extremism in their countries, but the 'Christian west' is still up in up roar about these bans.

It needs more moderates, and there's many more of those.

The problem with things like ISIS is American and allies have gone in to their country and bombed the living shit out of it and slaughtered hundreds of thousands, probbaly millions of Muslim poeple, how do you expect them to react? Personally, I'm just amazed there aren't more attacks and more hostility from Muslim countries. You need to understand Islam is a bit like sqaubbling siblings, they may fight against one another, but they are brothers against the 'christian west' and will join up against them. People don't seem to realise just how reserved all the other Muslim countries are being over this.

People need to know the ins and out of that.

I will be surprised if we don't have a major war before Trump is done. His lack of use of intelligence will only lead to many mistakes being made.

Best hunker down in your bunker then!! Lol

Very surprsing that Trumps concilatory comments re China didnt get much media coverage.....anyone would think they have any agenda and papers to sell!!
