As we know, another terrorist attack occured yesterday. Another one of the many that has struck Europe over the past two years in a wave-like fashion. The available premises for logically explaining these attacks are:
1. The terrorists are muslims
2. The terrorists are young men
Of course there are several others, such as IS often taking responsibility for the attack.
But if we try to reason with the two other premises, there's one key question that needs to be discussed, what's the motive? Seemingly, since islam and also young men (who are over-represented in violent crime) are present within these attacks, we need to discuss what causes what.
What are we observing? A radicalization of islam, OR an islamization of radicalism? Simplified, are muslims becoming more and more aggressive and radical, for example by the spread of salafism, or are aggressive and radical muslim youths using islam as a justification for their violence, for example by uniting with IS?
What's your opinion /pol/?

So basically option A, radicalization of islam?

Because they are Elliott Rodger style loser virgins who can't get laid, same with 90% of these crimes, they aren't having sex and they want retribution.
Exception in Islam, if you can't have sex, you can kill people, and even if you were previously quite lax on your religion and weren't getting into heaven, now you will martyr yourself instantly into eternal pleasure, and 72 virgins. Why struggle to get any girl at all to acknowledge you on Earth when you can have 72 pure girls in paradise?
They're brainwashed.
Islam is in a expansive phase. The West is in decline. Not only will it continues, but it will intensify. It's an extremely common historical theme.
People can't seem to be able to wrap their heads around this, but there is a real chance Islam will win by the end of this century.

ANOTHER one? Where?
Man, this shit's the new 'school shooting in America,' who can even keep up anymore?
>>128391991
There's no discussion or debate to be had; it's islam. It doesn't matter if there have been other terrorist groups before, and it doesn't matter if there are other underlying motives that'd push muslim men into being radical. Islam needs to go, either through deportation or violence. It can't stay in Europe.
>>128391991
It's always been radical. It's never not been radical. Nor was it simply contained in the middle east for a thousand years until now. They invaded lower Europe over, and over, and over again.
Occupied at times. Took slaves. Fought each other. Been stoning people to death and beheading and all sorts of sand savagery....well....since ever.
What causes it? Who cares. It's their dogma. That causes it. Culture. It's who they are.
>>128391991
There is only once cure for Islamic terror. Total eradication of the religion to the last.

What historical theme do you have in mind? And how would islam win, practically speaking?

I'm glad I'm at the other side of the globe
