And yet 78% of Canadians fear an attack in Canada is eminent.
Honestly, I'm not all that worried.

I would still very much like to eradicate ISIL though. That way we would be addressing the cause, instead of the symptom.

I do worry but I don't. The odds of me being killed or injured are slim BUT that doesn't mean I can let my vigilance lapse allowing others to be killed or injured.

Ditto.

Funny though, morons, progressives and smarmy Fluffers can't grasp how that differs from those that just say no.

If they were all to move to one parcel of swampland, I mean productive acres, which would be worse for the locals, that they are Americans or they are Muslims??

It was an example.

People who gravitate to extremism don't have to be brainwashed about some ideology. They just have to believe that killing will justify whatever perception they have of the world.
1. Brainwashing is different than conditioning. 2.People have to either be indoctrinated or be conditioned into extremism. They are not necessarily brainwashed. There is a distinct passive/aggressive indication.

If there are methods that can be used to inhibit a persons moral codes so they are at a lower level then 'the cure' would seem to be other side of the pendulum.

Conditioning would be when a person pulls a weed out of the ground even when it isn't on his property.

3. If a group naturally cares for those most like themselves then it makes sense to keep them together during a transition into Canada and where a person goes after that.

If we have to deport them it means they won the battle. Invite them in and train them to change and we win and they win as their lives will have improved.
Terrorists won the freakin war and the battles anyways. No-one enjoys much freedom and the folks that supply "security" are not very good at it. Therefore, sheeple are extremely a-nal and are tiptoeing around as if there is a boogyman in every shadow.

In this case 'our side lost the Syrian campaign' and rather than our hired guns facing a noose we offer them sanctuary and hope they become model citizens. How many the US have rewarded will never be known, not so here as a big flap is being made of it while Germany 'misplacing 700' that entered there on the 1st day hardly made a headline.

Perhaps true, but you left out a word "giving vulnerable MUSLIM individuals that extra little push".

Not at all.

Some people will pretend they are Muslim extremists so they have an invitation into ISIS.
