So what do we make of this then? True to form not a word of condemnation for the beheading itself but now the excuses are already in for the next, inevitable terrorist attack. As far as I'm aware, Macron has promised to clamp down on extremist groups, so I'm not sure what the outrage is about? trib.al/9YONKDe |

As this is mainly a football forum, I first read this as Erdogan v Mouscron, and thought, who the hell are Erdogan!  |

It doesn't matter what you think of it, the left will have the only correct opinion.

Erdogan is an utter nutjob. The irony if the left support him would take irony to new levels. He's the most extreme, nationalist, anti Liberal leader (and dictator) in Europe by a country mile. He's starting to make Putin look moderate.

1.8 billion muslims. A nutter. Erdogan is a dictatorial lunatic. Macron is a radical centrist.

It's a french expression that I think would be useful to adopt elsewhere. The whole linear spectrum , left to right, horseshoe theory things means that centrists who will stop at nothing to further their goals are still seen somehow as pragmatic and compromising. The are few lies big enough or money dirty enough to turn most centrists away from pursuit of power/ furthering their interests. |
