@KateWild - I've no doubt that you mean well and that you make good points on this thread and others.
However, there are fears that jihadi savages may bring the Syria/Iraq war to the streets of UK, Oz, NZ, US, Canada, etc.
I feel my attitude (what you would call my paranoia) is justified.
P.s. in what way is my ' paranoia' dangerous? I'm not planning to stab or behead anyone.
