US about to sell a record arms shipment to the people responsible for 9-11

I think it is all how you define terrorist and religious or political views are an aside. We have argued it before about how you define terrorist. Is it armed insurgency? Is it someone that preys on soft targets? Guerrilla style tactics verssus organized force.


I just dont think they use F15s, although they would if they had access.

Yes, there are and have been terrorists and evil people in all races and religions.

In the last 100 years, which group would you say has been responsible for the largest number of terror based activities? Which religion has the most followers that are willing to commit these acts in the name of their version of the religion? How about on a per capita basis?

How about the last 50 years? 20? 10? 5?

You're right, BTW:
The Crusaders were terrorists. They deserved the name terrorists. Other Christians that supported, cheered on or condoned the acts of the Crusaders all deserve a bad rap.

Would you disagree?

Yes I would agree. In the same light, peaceful muslims do not cheer on the terrorists.
