“if europe is to overcome islamist terror, it needs to fight for the values it holds dear” says paul mason. and what values would that be? colonial theft and genocide? look, i’m all for people power, democracy and showing the finger to global loan sharks but trying to make the greek-german dustup about europe being able to stand up to the islamic state (cuz greece is so close to turkey and the muslims might be coming any minute) is such base fear-mongering and racist tripe. i hope that one day we will be able to see the world thru a more evolved lens than the war on terror and its rancid corollaries.
