      Some of those are better people than their enemies too. All of them sometimes.

      It’s a real problem that guerillas use insecure means of communication. They are an important component of our world’s stability. A counterweight, so to say.

        Islamists have committed a genocide against Yazidis and Assyrians just a few years ago. Islamists are also committing crimes against Christians in a few places in Africa you’ve never heard about.

        Christianity, when it’s not European, is a much more humane religion than Islam. Should be the reason why European colonial powers were so eager to rely on Muslims in India and Africa, again.

        Hindu terror is a thing. Last time I heard it was against Christians though, just recently. They also have a rather harsh regime in Kashmir, but that’s mirrored on the Pakistani side, so a draw between Hindus and Muslims.

        Zionism is not a religion.

        Yeah it always strikes me how religious extremism is framed. You rarely hear about christian extremists, who operate in the open on all social networks.

        Yet, you could argue that Christian extremists have done more harm to western societies in the last 20 years than any Islamic group.

          As far as I am concerned, Azerbaijan and Turkey are Muslim and Israel is Jewish, so the most harmful terrorists are not Christian.
