Tell that to the other 1.57 billion Muslims. A handful of Muslims are responsible for terrorism, a very, very, very, very, very small handful.

None the less from Wiki as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam#Demographics

yes the vast majority of Muslims are peaceful normal people.

I read the wiki page. It does not give a number for radical
Islamists. But even if they were only 0.01% of Muslims...

0.01% of 1.57 billion is still 157,000 radical Islamists. If it were as high as 0.1% then there would be 1.57 million.

That's a lot of terrorists.

The Taliban alone was estimated at 45,000 members, and the related party - the JUI in Pakistan actually won 11.3% of the popular vote in 2002 elections there. So the JUI numbers are in the millions. That does not even count Al-Qaeda and the radical Islamists of the Middle East - Ahmadinejad, Hezbollah, Hamas etc. also easily numbering in the millions...so it would seem that it is higher than 0.1% actually.

That's a lot of terrorists.

That is a lot of terrorist, but I was just making the point that we only hear about the terrorists, we don't hear about the vast majority of Muslims that are actually very peaceful.

I agree. It is a wonderful religion in many respects and has had a long history of religious tolerance and erudition. It is awful to see it twisted in this way. Almost unbelievable even that we are seeing "holy war" perpetrated in the name of religion in the 21st century!

I`m an atheist, and would never harm another human being(except to defend my life, no I don`t want to die). My greatest wish is that all humans would have the same respect for the lives of others.

smh,,,,

that people believe in mysterious 'enemy' religions and nations,, still astounds me...


There's nothing mysterious about Iran, Syria, Pakistan and N. Korea.


Absolutely correct... but don't mix a religion with Politics.... that region has its share of bad politics and rotten governments, the people within that region are not happy with their government, but there is no place for them to go.
Islam as a religion is against most of what’s going on in that region.

Religions are not one to blames, we are.... you see people fighting and hating over sport teams, over political party affiliation...etc

most religions teach to respect others and their religions,life styles, to love all and be kind.

we take everything too far and have no tolerance.

except that Hamas, Hezbollah, the PLO and other sects of radical Islam strap bombs onto their children and teach them that they will "go to heaven" if they go into a crowd of jewish people and kill as many people as they can by blowing themselves up.

this is not done with sports teams. it is an act of religious fervor, ignorance and hatred and there is nothing noble about it.

How come we never read of the 'crazed Amish suicide bomber' ... ? And how come the 'Hamas' types can't build a decent barn ... ?
