Only 80 percent of the 1,750 Muslims interviewed thumbed down the idea of suicide bombings. Only 8.7 percent defined the act as cowardly and damaging for their religion. Source | |

Are you telling me that 80 percent of Germans disapprove of suicide bombings? And that 40 percent favor the use of violence if their religion is threatened? 44% of Germans believe dying while defending their faith is a ticket to paradise? Link please. | |

Oh, by the way. When it comes to grading the level of violence people will use to defend their rights, religions, countries, etc depends a lot on who their leaders are and the current cultual climate. I seem to remember our friendly non-violent Germans being lead by a poisoned dwarf with a pencil moustache back in the 30's. That nation gassed and shot over 12 million people based on their colour, religion, other differences. Believe me, suicide bombers are nowhere near being a conteneder to the extreme violence usage throne when you add a nation like Germany into the equation. Check out the amount of Nazi skinheads who get jailed in germany every year for violence and murder. So, I would go for about 80% of ANY nation favour violence to protect anything which is theirs. The other 20% are pussies and need to stop telling lies. | |

| Stirrer Of Shit | He said it was the same percentage. He already had the numbers from the article. A straw man is when I claim he made an argument different from the one he did. I asked him to clarify. He didn't. All he could say is learn German. |
