Often there is a quick rush to judgement after tragic events such as the
Paris attacks, with accompanying knee-jerk reactions, as people are
rapidly caught up in a frenzy of emotion and nationalistic pride that
can lead to disastrous consequences. This can be clearly seen in the
statements made by French president Hollande who said,
To all those who have seen these awful things, I want to say we are
going to lead a war which will be pitiless.
This artificially created divide serves both the interests of the
military industrial complex, and Islamic fundamentalists. It helps the
Western alliance maintain an excuse for bloated military and
intelligence spending and non-stop war footing. All the while, ISIS
benefits by gaining new recruits, as persecuted moderate Muslims are
pushed towards an extremist worldview.
