re: I can't back up the 95% of flashpoints being Muslim conflicts number with news articles. However, I have two friends who are majors in the military and they both tell me the same thing. They said the military routinely monitors worldwide flashpoints, who's on what side, and what US interests might be in it. Logical, right? So the source is military, which I consider to be a good source.

I don't have the time to do the research, but I bet you are wrong.

re: As far as the 99% of terrorist acts being committed by Muslims, that can easily be proven with a quick scan of news articles in Google. When was the last terrorist act committed by a non-Muslim. Can you name one? And if you come back with one, I bet I can come back with 9 Muslim terrorist acts that occurred around that same timeframe. Let's face it, Muslim terrorism is part of their culture and ideals in the Middle East. Terrorists are heros to those people and that is no exageration.

A lot depends on your definition of a terrorist event. Yours seems to be any violent act by a Muslim. There is violence all over the world... people terrorized right in your own city and my own city or in Uzbekistan (our partner) boiling people alive.

What percent of Muslims do you think participate in terrorist attacks?
