Just look at the incidents of the past 13 years and stop being such an insufferable head·in·sand smartarse: 9/11, 7/7, Rigby, Satanic Verses murder of Theo van Gogh ... That should be enuf 'evidence' for you to be going on with just for starters.

Why, of course! But let's also look at anything between 100,000 and a million innocent dead Iraqis, plus ten times more with families devastated, plus ten times more injured and impoverished, then let's look at Afghanistan, where ten times more innocent Afghanis were killed in the first few years than were killed on 9/11...

Is that "enuf" evidence for you to see that, whatever your precious "Islamic extremists" can do, western imperialism can do ten times more and ten times worse?

Give it a rest, Michael. You might well have been something once, but you ain't half blowing it now, big time. Sad to see, actually.
