I Know That Not All Muslims Are Terrorists

That's absolutely correct. But, by far majority of terrorist claim to be Muslims and committing terrorism in the name of Islam, that's also true.

I'm not sure what your point is. You could also say that not all cops kill blacks, but the vast majority of cops who kill blacks are white. That's the same kind of logical fallacy implicit in your original post. It is also true that the vast, overwhelming majority of Muslims are not terrorists, and that is a better characterization of Muslims, particularly in the US.

@windinhishair But not all muslims are in US only? what fraction of total Muslims lives in US?

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@stewf I don't know the exact percentage, but it is small. However, the same point applies globally--Muslims are overwhelmingly peaceful practitioners of one of the world's great religions.

Why to claim something if you can't substantiate it

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@stewf Exactly. I don't know why you continue to do that. There are about 3.3 million Muslims in the US. There are about 1.5 billion Muslims worldwide, or about 23% of the global population. If you do the math, the US has about 0.22% of the world Muslim population.

The fact is that very, very few of the world's Muslims are terrorists, and that the vast majority are peaceful.

Have you check how many Muslims around the world got killed in terrorism by their Muslim brothers?

stewf · 31-35, M

Could you list countries where terrorist attack took place in last 10 years and who were they?

windinhishair · 61-69, M

Have you checked how many white people were killed by white people? How many black people were killed by white people? How many white people were killed by black people? How many Asians were killed by Asians? What's your point? You're more likely to be killed in the US by lightning than in a terrorist attack.

So many get killed every year in road accident, but I asked specific about terrorist act?

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@stewf I don't know the exact number, do you? What's your point?

stewf · 31-35, M

Don't bother about numbers it would go in hundreds if thousands, but Could you list countries where terrorist attack took place in last 10 years and who were they?

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@stewf I'll ask it again--what is the point you are trying to make?

stewf · 31-35, M

I said it in story itself, but could list countries where terrorist attacke took placed and what ideology they claimed were following?

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@stewf If your point is that there are islamic terrorists, there are. But the vast, vast majority of Muslims are peaceful.

stewf · 31-35, M

You should read it again what I'm saying. Just to talk don't comment.

windinhishair · 61-69, M

@stewf Do you actually have a point, or are you just talking?

stewf · 31-35, M

Don't bother.
