thereligionofpeace.com ^ | 11/10/2005 | Frenetic

In the last year alone 6,685 people were killed and 12,139 were injured due to muslim terrorism.

So you think the Ku Klux Klan and the Spanish Inquisition are bad? So do we... but...Put the Numbers into Perspective.

More people are killed by Islamists each year than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition combined. (source)

More civilians were killed by Muslim extremists in two hours on September 11th than in the 36 years of sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland. (source)

Islamic terrorists murder more people every day than the Ku Klux Klan has in the last 50 years. (source)

19 Muslim hijackers killed more innocents in two hours on September 11th than the number of American criminals put to death in the last 65 years. (source)

It's all about Iraq, isn't it?

Yep, it's all about Iraq and...

India and the Sudan and Algeria and Afghanistan and New York and Pakistan and Israel and Russia and Chechnya and the Philippines and Indonesia and Nigeria and Thailand and Spain and Egypt and Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia and Ingushetia and Dagestan and Britain and Turkey and Kabardino-Balkaria and Morocco and Yemen and Lebanon and France and Uzbekistan and Gaza and Tunisia and Kosovo and Bosnia and Mauritania and Kenya and Eritrea and Syria and Somalia and California and Kuwait and Virginia and Ethiopia and Iran and Jordan and United Arab Emirates and Louisiana and Texas and Tanzania and Sri Lanka and Pennsylvania and Belgium and Denmark and East Timor and Qatar and Maryland and the Netherlands and Scotland and...

...and pretty much wherever Muslims believe their religion tells them to:

"Fight and slay the Unbelievers wherever ye find them. Seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war." Qur'an, Sura 9:5

This is a fascinating web site. I wonder if we can run a Islamic Kill Watch? Or whether some pundit would have the courage?

The remarkable thing about the figures are they are only for the last 12 months. I should petition them to run a tally since they've been keeping count (9/11), it must be in the 10's of thousands.

You seem to be forgetting that the majority of those killed are muslims.
It's the fanatics that are the problem.

What matters more, the majority of those killed or the majority of those doing the killing?

=========================================

No, it's a cult passing for a religion that allows for this killing in its own book that is the problem.

The really interesting thing is that overall the number of people dying in wars has been in decline pretty much continuously since 1950, and that decline has continued the last 5-10 years.

Of course, the site leaves off stuff like the Rwandan and Cambodian genocides, neither of which had anything to do with Islam, that in a good day would beat a whole year of Islamic terror attacks.

Terror Bombings in Jordan Punctuate US Silliness
by Jim Kouri, CPP

Suicide bombers detonated explosives at three international hotels in Amman, Jordan's capital city. So far the death toll stands at about 53 people and with scores of wounded. Unfortunately, the causality figures may be amended as events unfold.

According to witnesses, there have been explosions at the Radisson, the Grand Hyatt, and a Day's Inn motor hotel. All three are located in Amman. Two of the blasts were caused by suicide bombers with explosives strapped to their bodies. The third was perpetrated by a bomber in a vehicle containing explosives. Police believed earlier that the Radisson blast had been caused by a bomb placed in a false ceiling.

At 9 PM Jordanian time, the Jordanian people were shocked by the simultaneous bomb blasts. The fact that these were coordinated attacks at three separate locations would appear to indicate Al-Qaeda or a Wahhabi group allied with Al-Qaeda. But no group or groups have claimed responsibility as yet.

Jordan's King Abdullah, a staunch ally of the United States, blamed a "deviant and misled group" for the attacks in his released statement. "The attacks targeted and killed innocent Jordanian civilians," he said.

There are reports that Westerners and Israelis were checked into the Radisson hotel, but figures on those casualties are still unknown.

While this horror takes place in Jordan, rioting in France enters its second week, and Somali terrorists attack US cruise ships, there are politicians in the United States who are more concerned over where we are treating captured terrorists and where these secret facilities are located. There are politicians who are more concerned over interrogation tactics which our soldiers, intelligence officer and law enforcement officials employ to get terrorist thugs to talk and hopefully provide information that will save American lives and others around the world.

While terrorist bombers continue to inflict death and suffering upon innocent people, our political leaders in Washington, DC are carping about some CIA bureaucrat having her name leaked to the media, even though witness after witness after witness including a decorated US Army General tell us that it was the "victim's" husband who told them his wife worked for the CIA. There are political leaders who are calling for commission after commission after commission in the hopes they can hurt other political leaders, while ignoring those things that would actually make Americans safer.

While bodies lay in city streets throughout the world, we have political leaders who seek to score brownie points as they pontificate about national security while behind the scenes they work to undermine our military, our intelligence operatives, and our police. They do this with the help of news organizations who enjoy an aura of non-partisanship when in actuality they shovel liberal, anti-war talking points on Americans on a daily basis. The problem is too many Americans still believe these terrorist enablers in the news media.

While the terrorists plot and plan attacks, gather weapons and build explosive devices, our leaders in Washington, DC are busy trying to discredit the Commander-in-Chief with anything they can find. If he doesn't act as they believe he should, they attack. If he takes action, they attack And they attack anyone who attempts to protect the American people, whether they be police chiefs, mayors or governors.

In New York, for instance, the left-wingers dispatched the ACLU to stop police officers from performing anti-terror measures such as random bag checks. Our political leaders and their minions in the media, in left-wing organizations and in groups representing ambulance-chasing lawyers comb the nation seeking examples of that horror of horrors -- racial profiling. Our Supreme Court and the liberals are attempting to give due process rights citizens enjoy in the United States to terrorists and enemy combatants.

And polls show these political leaders are gaining the support of a majority of Americans. We've had our wake up calls. It may be Americans aren't asleep, they're just comatose.

Jim Kouri, CPP is currently fifth vice-president of the National Association of Chiefs of Police. He's former chief at a New York City housing project in Washington Heights nicknamed "Crack City" by reporters covering the drug war in the 1980s. In addition, he served as director of public safety at a New Jersey university and director of security for several major organizations. He's also served on the National Drug Task Force and trained police and security officers throughout the country. He writes for many police and security magazines including Chief of Police, Police Times, The Narc Officer and others, and he's a columnist for TheConservativeVoice.Com, AmericanDaily.Com, MensNewsDaily.Com, MichNews.Com, and he's syndicated by AXcessNews.Com. He's appeared as on-air commentator for over 100 TV and radio news and talk shows including Oprah, McLaughlin Report, CNN Headline News, MTV, Fox News, etc. His book Assume The Position is available at Amazon.Com, Booksamillion.com, and can be ordered at local bookstores.

It's the fanatics that are the problem.

Not entirely true. A major part of the problem is the enablers, who apparently comprise the majority of Muslims.

Then again, there are the lapsed Muslims. They're the only ones deserving of respect.

Let's try it again, with the right formatting this time:

With regard to your vanity post, both matter.
It's the fanatics in the religion that are the problem.

Yes, I agree that's a problem also.

...which was part of a 500 year effort to drive the Mohammedans out of Spain.

The Inquisition had far more to do with an effort to drive Jews out of Spain.

That said, it of course wasn't the massive bloodbath it was often portrayed as.
