loooooooool well......bro since u live there I was hoping u could tell us lil more than that

Do not so much focuse on the internal issue's but look at the external issues, i.e what is going on at the back door.

Houdini's greatest trick is in getting an audience to focus its attention where he wants it at a specific instant.

I EDITED my Previouse post i.e. added a bit more to it.

yeah I understand.
I like Mexico am gonna go there someday, InshaAllah

You have performed a neat sleight of hand. You have moved from "terror states" (by which you, I am appalled to notice, mean states which are victims of terrorist attacks) to "terrorists". Colombia has its own problems with Marxist guerillas (and the distinction is important because of the nature of the way they fight) and does India. But India also has a problem with Islamist terrorists. By your logic the Mumbai bombings would prove that Indians are terrorists because the attacks took place in India and killed Indians. Yet the question is who carried them out, not where they did it. Greece? Germany? You think that any Greek or German terrorists of non-Muslim origin have killed many people recently?

There is also a problem with definitions - you are comparing *pipeline* bombings with the Mumbai train bombings or the London 7-7 attacks? 51 percent of Colombian "terrorist" attacks consisted of pipeline bombings? How many people do you think died in those attacks? Zero? Two?

No one is blaming Muslims for terrorist attacks - although it is clear that the attacks in Europe recently - the Madrid and London bombs - were carried out by people who came from a Muslim background.

ETA and the IRA has both surrendered.

...Especially when they Produce VIDEO's in which they send a message to the world...

Quite true. Yet, this is something that sets them apart from all other terrorists. They openly admit they have a goal to accomplish and are not ashamed or afraid to let everyone know what the goal is. Although I disagree 100% with their methods, I feel some of their goals are legitimate. The problem isn't what they want, the problem is how they are trying to accomplish it.

With that said, it does make them a highly visible target and open to condemnation by much of the world. It also dipicts them as being a very viable threat and something the public fears. All the publicity over shadows any other terroristic activities in the world, even if
Islamic Terrorists are the minority.

Its all got to do with Media and the message they put accross to the Public. I mean even I as a Muslim do think that Oh No Muslims are behind these attackes even before the culprit is revealed but the fear that the media has created has made me think this way..

Before here in the Uk everytime there was a attack on the public everyone would point the finger at the IRA times have changed since then!

israel 1 or 2% very funny and this information according to its mother USA.

USA & Israel more than 100%

Close.. the Omagh bombing occurred on August 15 1998! Nobody 'covers' the IRA any more as, as has already been said, they have disarmed and renounced violence. Omagh was not carried out by the Provisional IRA, anyway, but by another Republican group... and no significant attacks by Irish Republicans have occured since.

I don't see any relevance to 1999 figures at all, they can only "prove" what was happening then. A great deal has happened in the meantime, not least 9/11.

Oh, really, Reality says differently

The IRA, lets just say, haven't completely "disarmed" since Omagh.
