Vladimir Putin: "To forgive the terrorists is up to God, but to send them to see God is my duty."
Meanwhile, Obama says Islamic extremists have legitimate grievances. :'(

Labour's view on Trident:
UK Labour Conference - For
UK Labour Leader - Against
UK Labour Shadow Cabinet - For
Scottish Labour Conference - Against
Scottish Labour Leader - For
Only Scottish Labour MP - Against
Scottish Labour MSP for Dumbarton (where Trident is located) - For

That's that cleared up...

Should the West unduly victimize Muslims?
ISIS have about 200,000 fighters I think I read, and there are in all about 1.7 billion Muslims. So that's 0.01% of the Muslim population....

It depends what report you read daib0. I have recently read, and heard, different accounts ranging from 8% to 25% of muslims are radicalised. Also that there are between 1.2 billion and 1.6 billion muslims in the world.

I suppose the figures we quote are the ones which fit in most neatly with our own particular opinions.

But from the figures I have quoted, the worst case scenario (25% of 1,6 billion) would mean there are 400 million radicalised muslims on the planet. Whether ISIS, Al Qaeda or any other fanatical organisation, that's a pretty scary number.

It may be a scary number, but it's entirely fabricated by people seeking to make you afraid. I wouldn't be surprised if ISIS themselves are circulating those figures.

Like I say daib0, it all depends on a persons point of view as to what figures they believe. Its like many other issues, so many statistics get bandied around its hard to know what is fact and what isn't.

Ultimately, people will believe what they want to believe.
