So that's a yes? You will spend the whole thread running away from your own opinion?

How do you know that Islamic terrorism is not the biggest terrorism problem if you don't know which category it is in?

So to prove that Islamic terrorism is not the biggest terrorism problem in the world, you present statistics in which Islam is the only religion or political ideology to get it's own category? Despite Muslims only making up a tiny minority of the population in question?

Would it be fair to describe this as an own-goal on your part Greg?

Not according to your own statistics. Even when the info is in your own post you cannot get it right.

Do you honestly not see that Islam is the only identifiable religion or political ideology in that list to get it's own category?

Why do you think Muslims get their own special category in terrorism statistics, even in a place like Europe where they are but a tiny minority?

And how does this support your claim that Islamic terrorism is not the biggest terror threat in the world?

Do all Islamic apologists struggle as much as you with reading their own evidence?

Do all Islamic apologists struggle as much as you with reading their own evidence? Or is this more of a deliberate lie? Perhaps "own-goal" is a better description?

But did you understand them? Let's try again for a straight answer hey Greg?

FD, why do you apologise for ethno-nationalist terrorism?

How do you consider an overwhealmingly majority of attacks to not be a problem?

Why are you trying to equate population with terrorism? What is the Muslim population of Europe?

Would you like to me to try for a straight answer this time? What sound does a jellyfish make?

Questions questions.

How does this support your claim that Islamic terrorism is not the biggest terror problem in the world?

Muslims make up 3.8% of the EU. Despite this, they are the only religious or political group to get their own category in Greg's statistics, making up 16% of attacks, and probably a far higher percentage of the death toll (which Greg likes to insist is not relevant). Islamic terrorism in Europe is growing fast. According to wikipeida, the 2014-2016 death toll was higher than all previous years combined.

Somehow, Greg thinks this supports his claim that Islamic terrorism is not the biggest terror problem in the world.

Greg would it be fair to say you deliberately sought to cherry pick the statistics to misrepresent the problem? Or is it just a case that you are inable to comprehend your own evidence?
