    Just by reading the news title, I knew where it came from: from Veja, a magazine that combines Fox News neutrality with Disney TV accuracy.

    @ 3 You mean that Sharia is a bad thing, when Sharia is what this country and region needs exactly. That will put things on the right path of things. Look what is happening now, this government is an ally of the Zionist government of Israel, and we have all those idiots living the American way of life. This government is doing all things wrong. The enemy of my enemy is my friend and the enemy of my friend is my enemy. We should send all Jews, zionists or not, non-jewish zionist too, back home where they belong, Israel.

    Mercopress missed the main point in the Veja feature article.

    Brasil has little legal ability to control the use of the country by Muslim (or other ) terrorists and extremists.

    The country has conspicuously refused to establish anti-terrorist legislation of the type necessary to control this threat because, it says, if it did, the legislation would be used to catch ex-terrorists from the country's old-Left, and the net would catch a lot of Brasil's new Establishment.

    Brasilis known to be wide open to extremist exploitation as a result.

    It is no surprise that Brasil rejected Italy's formal request for return of a well-known terrorist multiple killer - rejected by Brasil because Brasil does not distinguish between TERRORIST and FREEDOM FIGHTER.

    The Veja article by Leonardo Coutinho, which I have in front of me, is the usual Veja mix of well-researched historical and contemporary evidence, speculation, questions about why it is still going on, and why the government is allowing it to continue without hinderance.

    Veja is particularly good at publicly holding the Government to account, but less good at getting them to change.

    Whilst ever the Government belive that they do not have to be answerable to the people, and while ever the people feel that the Government has been voted in to do whatever it wants, these things will continue.

    Education the people to be discriminating human beings, to think for themselves, is something all countries go through on their path to civilized democracy.
    Brasil and its people, like most nations, has a long, long way to go in its control of the weaknesses and excesses of its executive.

    I am happy the Muslim community have a place to call home in Latin America, too bad europid are bent on murdering all Muslim women and children from the air and never have the courage or be man enough to face the enemy man to man, I don't really know where they get the face to come here and make any comment in regards to Latin America's tolerance for the people europids hate, all this cowards should be ignored and treated like second class animals, europid don't own anything in the world everything they have is thefted from other people, we should all take it back everywhere they exist, do to brits as they do to others, as it was writen in the bible.

    Makes you glad to ignore all forms of religion as make believe crap (apologies to those that believe but aren't ranting about it, you have my respect of your particular beliefs in whatever God you pray to), however, the only provable truth is Mathematics (and British Sovereignty of the Falkland Islands), and the only thing to believe in is Science (and the Human Right of Self-Determination), everything else is nonsense, lies, unproven, or in the case of Peronism, the Big Lie.

    Glad to see the Pork Hunt is his usual self, but I reckon when he's bashing the Bible all the pages end up stuck together.

    Time for a nice cup of tea I think.

    @12

    Provable truth? Religion's not about truth, it's about belief. If you could prove it you wouldn't have to believe.
