Egypt Is Scaring Terrorists

I do not know how I feel about this:

Egypt Hangs 15 for Terrorism, Stoking Fears Among Islamists

The Egyptian authorities hanged 15 men on Tuesday for an attack in the Sinai Peninsula in 2013, the start of an Islamic insurgency that the military-dominated government has been battling ever since.

The hangings, reported by state media, were the biggest mass execution in Egypt since six convicted jihadists were hanged in 2015.

A military court found the men guilty on terrorism charges last month for an attack on a military checkpoint in which one army officer and eight soldiers were killed. That assault came amid a surge of violence that swept across Egypt after Egyptian security forces forcibly broke up two Islamist sit-ins in the capital, Cairo, killing over 800 people. The military had seized power six weeks earlier, overthrowing a democratically elected Islamist president, Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The executions on Tuesday raise the number of people put to death since the military took over to 23.

On the one hand, dead terrorists are good terrorists. On the other hand, radical Islamist terrorists are often r-strategists, seeking to quiet complex cognitive panic in the amygdala with the easy cognitive band-aid of ideological absolutism. And when the government starts killing them, the most r-selected among them will immediately feel a deep instinct to migrate outward, to other lands where they can assert themselves freely without fear of violent retribution or reprisal.

Europe really needs to get those border closed, before the Mideast begins the mop-up operations that will follow on to the God-Emperor’s stunning victory over Islamist extremism in the region.

Tell everyone about r/K Theory, because we need the people understanding the dangers of migrants
