AMEN! William2006!

There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics!

Most excellent Point sir well taken!

-Wasteland Man.

They will claim that “Not all Muslims believe in, or take part in Jihad. Only a small portion or small percentage take part in Jihad.”

How do they know that “only a small percentage of all Muslims” take part in Jihad? The statistics show a very large percentage of those polled actually support violent Jihad.

To make things more understandable, let us look at the numbers.

There are an estimated 1.2 billion Muslims on planet earth. That would be 1,200,000,000.

How much is “Only a small percentage?

25% of 1.2 billion?

That would be 300 Million Jihadis, or equivalent to the total population of the United States of America. This amount is a realistic number-estimate of how many Muslims are Jihadis.

How about a lower percentage, such as 20% of 1.2 billion?

That would be 240 million “violent Jihadi Muslims.”

Is that a small amount?

That is almost as many people as there are citizens of the United States, and many times larger than the combined strength of several of the world’s most populace armies.

Suppose we say 15% of all 1.2 Muslims in the world are Jihadis.

That would make it 180 million Jihadis, not a small number in any stretch of the imagination.

If it is “only” 10% of all Muslims are Jihadis, then 10% of 1.2 billion is 120 million Jihadis.

Is that a small number?

No! When we are talking about violent thugs who have blown up train stations, murdered innocent people in the street by the hundreds, hijacked aircraft with passengers and crew and used them as missiles to destroy two super structures in which thousands of innocent men, women, and children were working and dinning and touring, then 120 million violent Jihadis is not a small number. 120 Million violent Jihadis is a VERY LARGE number, larger than the combined military personnel of the US, Great Britain, Russia, China, and other militaries.

No, 120 million violent Jihadis, or 10% of 1.2 billion, is NOT a small number in any stretch of the imagination!

What about 5% of all the 1.2 billion Muslims throughout the world? Is that 5% a small number?

Of course it sounds like a small portion, 5% compared to 95%, or 60%, or 50%, or 45%, but 5% of 1.2 billion Muslims equals 60 Million Jihadis, more than the combined numbers of several major nations’ military personnel, larger than the populations of many countries on planet earth, larger than the population of any state in the United States, and definitely large enough to cause a great deal of damage!

Let’s humor the leftist, “Violent Muslims are not dangerous to us or any one else, there are only a small portion of all Muslims who take part in violent Jihad, and say, 1% of all Muslims are violent Jihadis.

That sounds like a small number, doesn’t it? 1%?

That equals 12,000,000 (twelve million) violent Jihadis! One percent of 1.2 billion Muslims being violent Jihadis means that there are twelve million violent Jihadis!

That about as large, and possibly larger than the combined military of the US, Russia, Great Britain, and China! It is larger than the population of most states in the US, and a larger number than the population of many countries on planet earth.

Even .5% of 1.2 billion Muslims equals 6,000,000, or six million violent Jihadis!

So, when someone dares to raise the foolish dismissal of the danger of Muslim violent Jihadis, claiming that only a small portion of all Muslims are violent, why not ask them exactly why they believe such a foolish concept, and ask them how much is “a small portion.”

As you can see, when we are talking about violent terrorists out of a total of 1.2 billion, it all depends on what the word “small” means.

I agree that Drudge and the Goracle are very entertaining, but isn’t the struggle against radical Islam worth a little more love in the comments section?

I agree, but what more can one say? What have we done about this guy but let him continue to preach his hate? This country just lets anyone walk all over it. Do something, kick people like this out, whatever, just do something.

Radical muslims are getting bolder and bolder on US soil. You have this guy, Saudi schools and mosques popping up all over the country teaching their own special brand of wahibbi death to infidels, the six imams suing everyone in an attempt to cowtow airlines and the flying populace and a definite uptrend in individual jihadists.

Do something about this crap, if not, eventually people will start doing it themselves.

The US isn’t Europe, muslims are keeping their hand close to the vest and sending out probes … it’s out there, it’s obvious, and it’s being ignored.

The reason is NOT anti-semitism, at least not per se. The real reason is cowardice, pure and simple. When faced with some real nasties, throw the people on your side to the crocodiles if you can. Back when, same type of yellow-bellies blamed England, Churchill and the Spitfire pilots for what the Nazis were doing. Part of me would like to shoot the so-and-so-s. But on the other hand, I should not waste good ammunition of worthless targets.

Makes me wonder, Anton, if we have a lot of American Idol watchers here.

It’s not my fault, I’m forced to watch by my wife. Bleeding eyes and all. In my mind, I keep repeating over and over, LA LA LA LA LA LA, plus I don’t have a second TV.

I agree that Drudge and the Goracle are very entertaining, but isn’t the struggle against radical Islam worth a little more love in the comments section?

Bryan, please tell me your page-hits data contradicts the viewership implied by the comments section. I think these features on Jihad Watch and Radical Islam are just what the “new media” should be doing; I’d hate to think this is a minority view.

Anton on March 21, 2007 at 4:56 PM

I’ve been worrying the same thing myself. Of course, JihadWatch is very well read, as is LGF.

Page hits are nearly a million per week, visitors 500,000 per week. I know all of my friends and family rely on Michelle and the gang to keep us up to speed without having to soil ourselves with exposure to the MSM.

He was eventually jailed, but not before he brainwashed a couple of thousand terrorist human timebombs who are now loose in Britain.

The Left does not understand that unity is the strength that brought this great nation to such power and wealth. They are deliberately attempting to tear down the bonds that have made such unity possible. The Left is doing everything they can to minimize and destroy nationalism for the benefit some global community they envision. This effort leads to what we see in this video – the acceptance of treason and sedition as an accepted freedeom of speech.

We will not see a change to this state of affairs until after disaster strikes and the Left looses influence. Unfortunately this may be the almost complete destruction of Israel and a major population center in the United States such as New York. Only then will the majority of Americans see the Left for the weakness, ignorance, cowardice, and stupidity it forces on others – values such as multiculturalism and the tolerance of sedition and treason.

Erick Stakelbeck reports…….

I see talent in this man, equal to, and possibly even exceeding that of many established media researchers and reporters.

Eric,

Great job delivering that piece of news-commentary!

“Drudge Disses HotAir” — 270+ comments up to the point that I stopped paying attention.

“Open Thread: Goracle testifies” — currently 316 comment and counting.

Yesterday’s “Jihad Watch” — 20 comments.

Today’s “Radical Islam” — this very post makes 10 comments.

I agree that Drudge and the Goracle are very entertaining, but isn’t the struggle against radical Islam worth a little more love in the comments section?

Where else could you find news that concerns us all.

Remove the term ‘radical’.

PRCalDude on March 21, 2007 at 1:04 PM

Agree.

Bryan and Michelle: great work. This is what the new media is all about (or should be all about). We don’t see this on CNN or even Fox, for example.

PS — a video production comment: the “Matrix”-style rotating cylinders / hoops behind text or still photos can be quite distracting. Can you find something a little less intrusive?
