I'm saying that "worldwide jihad" isn't an appropriate way to phrase the issue. I'm not saying it isn't a problem, I'm saying it's not a worldwide problem.
Look at North & South America, Australia, China/Japan, Russia, SE Asia, Southern Africa, Europe. Incidents yes. Constant turmoil and conflict, no.
So the problem you're describing isn't one that is worldwide. It's a very serious problem for the Middle East, large parts of Africa, and South Asia.
Religious adherence and economic power tend to be counterlinked. One goes up and the other goes down.
Stable governance and economic growth coupled with fair and representative government is the solution for a lot of these places, and it's the lack of same that drives religious fundamentalism and religious violence. I imagine we might disagree on root causes thereof.
Well that's not exactly what I meant, but very true regardless.
Jolly good. The less hatred you post the better.
The next time you think no comment is needed, try doing just that. Not commenting.

I find that laughable, a few nations don't have issues. France just got a small taste of minor terrorism. a big dose could be soon coming. The fact that radical groups thrive in basically radical political systems will continue to spill into the modern world. Overblown, 9/11 basically changed America forever and a few men shut down our entire airspace....
So keep your head in the sand as radical Islam spreads throughout Asia, Africa and the ME....that's not much of the world.......choke.....Ignore constant genocide yearly, not happening to you. Ignore the experts that say in the next few decades they will gain weapons of mass destruction. Let's wait until the big event to get our heads out of the sand....
A rotten apple can spoil the entire bunch. The world can continue to appease, but major events, wars, big acts of terror that will change nations are coming. This all the experts agree on. We can act as the world or we can react after it happens...
