Surprising Study On Terrorism

Al-Qaida Kills Eight Times More Muslims Than Non-Muslims

By Yassin Musharbash

Few would deny that Muslims too are victims of Islamist terror. But a new study by the Combating Terrorism Center in the US has shown that an overwhelming majority of al-Qaida victims are, in fact, co-religionists.

In the battle against unbelievers, can one also kill Muslims? Even the terror network al-Qaida is troubled by this question.

A leading al-Qaida ideologue for the terror network, Abu Yahya al-Libi, has developed his own theologically-based theory of collateral damage that allows militants to kill Muslims when it is unavoidable. Even the Iraqi affiliates of Osama bin Laden's terror group, who are known to be particularly bloodthirsty, claim that they too consider this question. For instance, in a message claiming responsibility for an August attack in Baghdad, the group wished those Sunnis injured in the "operation" a speedy recovery and expressed their hope that those killed would be accepted by God as "martyrs."

But even as such apologetic communiqués from al-Qaida show the terror network stylizing itself as a defender of the true faith wrestling with religious concepts, they also make it look as though any dead Muslims are regretful but isolated cases. The facts, though, tell a different story.

When they recruit women, the retarded, and economically destitute to carry off suicide bombings, this immediately negates any stated "concerns" they have about killing Muslims.

These statements must be issued by the propaganda arms of these terrorist groups and dutifully picked up by the MSM.

As long as it is Muslims doing the killing, it is alright with most Muslims...

Draw a cartoon of Mohammad, millions of Muslims go nuts and kill.

A Muslim screaming Allah Akbar as he kills thousands, not a peep...

What more does one really need to know?

With the bomb, maybe they’ll self eradicate (I have no delusions about their killing lots of ‘infidels’ (us) as well).

The mythical "moderate Muslims" do not condemn terrorists when they kill our women and children.
The mythical "moderate Muslims" do not even condemn the terrorists when they kill other Muslims.

There are no moderate Muslims. It's a Death Cult, not a religion.

Surprising only to those that haven't been paying attention. Revolutionary movements always seek to inflame the masses and eliminate moderates.

How is it then, that the experts say we are LOSING in Afghanistan? Since there are supposedly no Al-Qaida in Iraq?

Thats' and idea! Maybe we've been looking at this all wrong, maybe if we started helping Al-Qaida with training and equipment we could increase their kill ratio ten fold and sooner or later they go the way of the dodo bird!

Well it's nice to know that there is a good side to AQ.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I don’t understand why this should be a surprise to anyone... The slaughter of innocents is a natural occurrence for muslims and arabs.

The only people most muslims and arabs want to kill more than Jews are ... Well we Jews are at the top of their hit parade. But after us Jews, are the Christians, Hindus, and other “infidels.” Once they run out of the infidels, then they turn on each other. And in some cases, if they just can’t get to the infidels or Jews, they’ll make due with slaughtering other muslims, until they can find their more “preferred victims.”

Seriously, take a look at pretty much every war or bloody conflict going on in the world since the fall of communism, and for the vast majority, you’ll find muslims on one, if not more sides of every one.
