So he wasn't all bad then. I've been tempted to attack some of that lot myself when they come bothering me at my door. :30:

"come in", i said, "have a seat, coffee or tea. now what do you want to talk about /"

"dunno", he said. " never got past the door before".

there's always 2 sides to everything, but it can't be ignored. 90% of atrocities carried out, not just in the UK, BUT WORLDWIDE, ARE PERPETRATED BY MUSLIMS/ISLAMICS.

That's a pretty strong statement. Have you a single shred of evidence for that claim? I'd agree a majority of reported incidents are from 'Islamic' extremists.


Here, for example is a chart compiled from FBI data:

you ever heard of a catholic jihad, a protestant jihad, any christian martyrs blowing themselves up?

I would hazard a guess that the Mafia (original version) and later American versions plus all the drug related murders over the last century would blow all the other religious terrorists atrocities out of the water. NOW states like Syria and there are other governments around the world murdering their own people on an industrial scale puts a few Jihad inspired deaths into the weeds, they are just a tick on the backside of a whole grand battle field.

Muslims per se are no threat IMV

Let's not forget the Crusades, how about those killed during the "building" of the Empire ....... it's easy to forget the past when you've got an agenda.

Maybe those apparently less civilised than us can remember how we gained our wealth and influence in the past - what goes around comes around.

'Jihad' is just a word. It means, most closely, struggle.

Of course, if you substitute 'jihad' for 'crusade' or 'inquisition'....
