Islamist Terrorism by the Numbers
National Review ^ | 1/8/15 | Carl Eric Scott

Posted on 01/20/2015 8:34:15 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

Here’s one of the more important questions for any contemporary history exam, but one you nonetheless won’t find on any test:

13.) How many deadly terror attacks committed in the name of Islam have occurred since September 11, 2001?

a) 234

b) 701

c) 4,049

d) 24,795

Here’s the basic methodology used by the compilers:

“The list of terrorist attacks committed by Muslims since 9/11/01 is incomplete because not all such attacks are picked up by international news sources, even those resulting in multiple loss of life. These are not incidents of ordinary crime involving nominal Muslims killing for money or vendetta. We only include incidents of deadly violence that are reasonably determined to have been committed out of religious duty – as interpreted by the perpetrator.

Here's another good question

 

How many times has Obama apologized for Islamic attacks or has insisted that Islam is a Religion of Peace or has repeated that terrorists who blow things up and kill people while shouting "Allahu Akbar" are not Muslim.

a) 234

b) 701

c) 4,049

A better metric to use is the extent of jihadist casualties that occur in a single month.

Over 5,000, according to the BBC and King's College.

In other words, two 9/11 massacres with every month that elapses.

This is why the lie by Merkel, Cameron, Obama and the rest of the political class is so toxic.

The idea that Islam is a religion of peace is not only not true, it's such an inversion of the truth that it's something Orwell would have created.

It's akin to saying Joseph Stalin was a humanitarian.

I'm looking for the companion post to this one on how many “Terrorism by the Numbers” attacks have been committed by Tea Party ‘lone wolfs’...

AND

How much money Homeland and the FBI have spent PER ATTACK by each group...(hint: there have been ZERO attacks by Tea Party members)

Christians Burned Alive: Where’s the Outrage?

Raymond Ibrahim
Powerlin
By John Hinderaker

http://www.raymondibrahim.com/in-the-media/christians-burned-alive-wheres-the-outrage/

From Pakistan, another in a long series of horrifying news stories: because of a (presumably false) rumor that they had burned pages of a Koran, a Christian couple was burned alive by a mob of Muslims:

Sajjad Maseeh, 27, and his wife Shama Bibi, 24, were set upon by at least 1,200 people after rumors circulated that they had burned verses from the Quran, family spokesman Javed Maseeh told NBC News via telephone late Thursday.

Their legs were also broken so they couldn’t run away.
“They picked them up by their arms and legs and held them over the brick furnace until their clothes caught fire,” he said. “And then they threw them inside the furnace.”

Bibi, a mother of four who was four months pregnant, was wearing an outfit that initially didn’t burn, according to Javed Maseeh. The mob removed her from over the kiln and wrapped her up in cotton to make sure the garments would be set alight.

This outrage prompted the President of the Pakistan Christian Congress to write a letter to President Obama:

It is surprising that neither US Administration under your honor nor US State Department even bothered to condemn this horrific crime of burning live of Christian couple by a mob living in country named Islamic Republic of Pakistan which is receiving billions of aid of US taxpayers.

I would appeal your honor to put pressure on government of Pakistan to end misuse of blasphemy laws against Christian, Ahamadiyyia and other religious minorities and condition US Aid to Pakistan on human rights and repeal of blasphemy laws.

Don’t hold your breath waiting for Obama to Obama to do anything about the persecution of Christians. Who knows, it might cause an anti-Muslim backlash! What I want to know is, are the 1,200 people who comprised the mob that burned the Maseehs alive “real” Muslims? Or are they just a handful of deviants who defame the beautiful message of the Prophet?

Actually, the story is the same wherever Muslims dominate. Westerners naturally focus on Islamic terrorism that is directed at them, but that is only one aspect of a pervasive pathology.

If you follow the link above, you can read accounts of Muslim persecution of Christians in Bangladesh, Egypt, Iraq, East Jerusalem, Malaysia, Kenya, Nigeria, Syria, the Islamic State and elsewhere. The author, Raymond Ibrahim, performs a tremendous service by chronicling the persecution of Christians on a regular basis. Like the President of the Pakistan Christian Congress, he must be baffled that hardly anyone seems to care.

Here are the numbers. I have heard say that only about 10% of muslims are radical enough to carry out violent attacks. I will take that statement at face value.

A quick web search says that there are 1.8 Billon practitioners of the muslim faith. Simple math tells us that 10% of 1.8 billion leaves us with only 180 MILLION muslims that want to cut our infidel heads off. Well that’s not so bad, right?

Let’s put that in perspective, the US has about 2.3 million active duty, guard and reserve troops on hand.

Radical muslims outnumber the totality of our armed forces at about 78 to 1.

If you combine our armed forces with the militaries of Russia (2.88 million), China (3.1 million), France (400K), Germany (360K), England (240K), Japan (310K), Australia (100K), India (3.46 million) and Canada (120K), we are still vastly outnumbered. 180 million radical, crazed muslims versus 13.27 million people under arms. So we are only outnumbered 13.56 to 1.

The scariest part of these numbers is that while we still adhear to rules of engagement and the ideals of chivalry, the mohamedans strike predominatly at non-combatants. Schools, markets, places of worship, and public transportation seem to be their prefered targets.

The more I learn about islam, the more I am in agreement with a statement I first heard many years ago on this forum. All I need to know about islam, I learned on 9/11.

Revelation 17: 12 “And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, who have NOT yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority AS kings WITH the beast for one hour....These will wage war against the Lamb.”

The ten horns and the beast desolate the earth because they hate the people of the world, making them desolate, naked, and will consume them and burn them with fire.

I personally believe these 10 are not leaders of nations, but leaders of terrorist organizations.
