idk what that is but it sure doesn't sound like the kind of guy who would have access to classified data that says the north koreans are totally great at war after decades of not being near that.

does this essentially mean he loads missiles onto things?

not sure how much trouble he can get into for bragging about classified info when the only thing classified is how many missiles he has to lug over to the planes each day, though

At the very least if he is ever up for another clearance investigation it's going to look bad to the investigator to hear he's bragging about holding nuclear launch codes to random folk at bars

I think I'm attempting to.

Hence my posting in RSF: I understand elections. I understand candidates. I can add something and show the uninitiated how to think like a candidate; how to become a candidate.

Also it's fun to make fun of bankrupt candidacies one cycle too late.

There is no correlation between conservative Islamic views and support for terrorism. It's true that most Muslim countries have awful human rights records, but that's a separate issue from terrorism.

As to your first paragraph: I'd like to see your methodology, including your definition of "deadly terror attack." Did you cover the Sri Lankan civil war? A brief look at what the Tamil Tigers got up to in the 90s and 2000s shows that their methods were very similar to those of ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and Boko Haram, even though they were a secular nationalist group with a mostly Hindu membership. Did you cover the Second Congo War? Plenty of the atrocities committed in that war would fit any definition of terrorism, and they all took place in a country that is 95% Christian. If you had run those calculations two years ago, would you have included the Rwandan Genocide, or the Yugoslav Wars?

The answer ultimately depends on how you define "terrorism," and is thus a pointless semantic argument.

Furthermore, even if you could make this kind of calculation, the only honest way to present the data would be to separate into the categories of "did the terrorist attack take place in a developed country, a stable developing country, or an unstable developing country?" to account for the fact that Islam happens to be popular in unstable parts of the world.

This should be empty-quoted on every page that someone brings up THE ISLAMICS.
