So why is it that despite all these terrorist attacks that vastly outnumber them, we only seem to hear about Islamic terrorism. Do you think the media is biased?

1. The so called Islamic attacks usually result in many deaths.

2. "If it bleeds, it leads".

You seriously couldn't figure this out for yourself?

I was just wondering if you had realised. I think that is why you like to quote those statistics, but you don't like to give any actual examples.

Do you understand now what I mean about Muslims giving terrorists a bad name?

There are several examples at my link.

Take a look.

You can keep saying that no examples have been provided for as long as you want, however, it won't stop it from being a lie.

Re: Peaceful Islam Reply #95 - Mar 28^th, 2016 at 12:09pm Can you give an example of one of these examples you think is at your link? You were happy enough to quote the text about the number of terrorist attacks, but you seem remarkably reluctant to post anything about the nature of them. Do you understand now what I mean about Muslims giving terrorists a bad name?

San Diego, California.
(One act of Domestic Terrorism)

On August 1, 2003, the San Diego Fire Department and San Diego Police Department responded to an arson fire at the Garden Condominium, a five-story, 206-unit condominium complex under construction in the University Town Center area of San Diego. The fire caused an estimated $20 million in damages to the building and surrounding construction equipment. Investigators found graffiti at the site implicating Earth Liberation Front (ELF) extremists with the incident, including the message “IF YOU BUILD IT – WE WILL BURN IT. THE ELF’S ARE MAD.

On September 19, 2003, two other new home sites were also set on fire, with similar messages left at the scene. The fires destroyed four homes and damaged two others, causing an estimated loss of $3 million. The August 1 and September 19 arson incidents remain under investigation.

West Covina, California.
(One act of Domestic Terrorism)

On August 22, 2003, individuals associated with the Earth Liberation Front (ELF) carried out acts of vandalism in the Los Angeles, California, area, damaging roughly 125 vehicles and one commercial building. Much of the damage was caused by spray-painted graffiti, although in two cases, individuals set fire to sport utility vehicles (SUVs). Some of the graffiti associated SUVs with “terrorism.” On April 18, 2005, William Jensen Cottrell was sentenced to eight years and four months in federal prison and fined $3.5 million for the incident. Two other suspects in the attack—Tyler Johnson and Michie Oe—remained at large at the end of 2005.

Bombing
Emeryville, California
(One act of Domestic Terrorism)

On August 28, 2003, an improvised explosive device (IED) was detonated near the front door of Chiron Life Science Center in Emeryville, California, causing damage to the building. A second device detonated in another Chiron building shortly after first responders arrived at the scene, also damaging the building and the surrounding area. Chiron had previously received harassing e-mails, telephone calls, and faxes, and some Chiron employees had been harassed at their residences. Chiron, an animal testing laboratory, is associated with Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS). HLS, and individuals and companies associated with it, have regularly been targeted by animal rights extremists. Daniel Andreas San Diego is suspected of having carried out the bombing and remained a fugitive at the end of 2005.
