Muslims worldwide are the main perpetrators of terrorism, a humiliating and painful truth that must be acknowledged, a prominent Arab writer and television executive wrote Saturday, as Middle East media and officials expressed horror at the bloody rebel siege of a Russian school.

Gee I don't know. The Muslims have got some pretty steep competition from the Columbians:
quote:
Despite the horrific events of September 11, the number of international terrorist attacks in 2001 declined to 346, down from 426 the previous year. One hundred seventy-eight of the attacks were bombings against a multinational oil pipeline in Colombia—constituting 51 percent of the year’s total number of attacks. In the year 2000, there were 152 pipeline bombings in Colombia, which accounted for 40 percent of the total.
how about you change the title to 'religious people are the main perpetrators of terrorism' - this includes state sponsored terrorism from certain countries aswell

You obviously find it difficult reading two lines of text, so I'll repost the quote taken from the US Department of State, highlighting the important parts for you:

51% = A majority. Any questions?
magnitude of INTL impact on the world?
children involved?
beheadings?
So you would outweigh one terrorist attack that claims over 3000lives by several dozen terrorists attack on pipelines.
Interesting

uh, yeah. i do.
are you trying to equate a pipeline in Columbia with 300 people in a dance club or 3000 people working in an office building or 350 people at a parent teacher conference?

The topic is:
quote:
Muslims are main perpetrators of terrorism
That's a quantitative statement, not a qualitative one. As such, I provided a quantitative statistic from the State Department proving that the "main perpetrators of terrorism" (in 2001 at least) were actually Roman Catholics.
As for this:
quote:
NTL impact on the world?
children involved?
beheadings?
Or this:
quote:

That's going to be a subjective, qualitative discussion where the thread called for objective, quantitative one. If you want to argue that Christian terrorists are more benevolent than Muslim terrorists (good luck!) feel free to start another thread.
