Nah it wouldn't. Everyone still loves the US.
It would be opening Pandora's box though.

Pandoras box already got opened when Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nuked.

Anyhow, I agree that nuking and levelling the city would just make things worse.

Not when we then let them back into the country, after learning how better to kill and having become further radicalised. Which we do.
The French police just reported that one of the church assailants was a man who had been arrested earlier trying to cross the Turkish border into Syria.
He was returned to France, and got a 'Fiche S' which means he was regarded as a danger to the state. He was released under condition of wearing an electronic ankle band, despite the public prosecutor's office appealing against that verdict.

The verdict allowed him to leave his house between 8:30 and 12:30.

I'm really not sure how that helps unless you have someone actually tracking his movements 7/24/60/60

Tip 4 french authorities: a ankle band tracker doesn't help much against someone who doesnt care about being arrested, specially since you can't immediately arrest him at the second you notice he's going full allahu ackbar.

Yeah, them flying off to Syria and getting out of our hair is actually a good thing. Especially if they wind up killed by Kurds.
>people getting killed
>good thing

It's not about flying off to Syria. DJ means that it would possibly radicalize more of the EU-born muslims, and cause more Paris / Nice/ Munich / etc. attacks.
I swear this wouldn't happen nearly as much if authorities actually made an effort to shut down mosques and so on teaching violent Islam

They could also work with Mosques that don't to try and find out who the young people in those communities are that are getting radicalized. Parents and community leaders tend to get worried about stuff like that, for many reasons, and people get radicalized outside of the mosques as well.

Vice president Frans Timmermans stated today on behalf of the EU, that Poland will be given 3 months time to remove the new law instated by the governing PiS party, which makes it impossible for the Constitutional Court to test new laws to the Cosntitution.

If not, Poland will be facing sanctions.

I get the feeling that if a left-wing party was trying to do this, there'd be no EU opposition

Considering that the constitutional court was in the most part staffed by left leaning people that would paralyze the current government given the chance?
Your feeling might be right.

Well, a left-wing party didn't. Or any other ruling party for that matter since '89. There was no shortage of lefties in the government since then. Meanwhile, this was one of the first things this government did, along with hijacking media.

This is Poland you are talking about. The media are hijacked every time there is a new government in place since the party hurriedly replaces people with their chums wherever and whenever possible.

Yes, this is Poland I'm talking about. This government literally passed a law that actively makes doing that easier by firing all the previous directors of public media on the spot and more or less nationalizing them.

Yes except TVP is a public broadcaster that was pretty much always nationalized since the late 40's.
