Take a different country. The UK. Since 9/11.

2001 4 November: Real IRA car bomb in Birmingham[25]
2005 7 July: The 7 July 2005 London bombings conducted by four separate Islamist extremist suicide bombers, killing 56 people and injuring 700.
2007 January - February: The 2007 United Kingdom letter bombs
2007 30 June: 2007 Glasgow International Airport attack perpetrated by Islamist extremists.
2008 22 May: 2008 Exeter attempted bombing by an Islamist extremist, injuring only the perpetrator.
2013 Pavlo Lapshyn attacks. On 29 April, Lapshyn, a Ukrainian student, stabbed Mohammed Saleem, a Birmingham resident to death. He later admitted to police that he wished to start a "race war".[26] Lapshyn later detonated a home-made bomb outside a mosque in Walsall on 21 June. 150 homes were evacuated but no person was injured.[26] On 28 May Lapshyn detonated a second home-made bomb near a mosque in Wolverhampton, and attacked a mosque in Tipton with an improvised explosive device containing nails on 12 July. Friday prayers were delayed that day, and so his intended victims were still inside. Laphsyn was later sentenced to serve a minimum of 40 years.[27][28][29]
2013 22 May: A British soldier, Lee Rigby, was murdered in an attack in Woolwich by Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale, two Islamist extremists armed with a handgun and a number of bladed implements. Both men were sentenced to life imprisonment, with Adebolajo given a whole life order and Adebowale ordered to serve at least 45 years.

Hmmm. More than half. 57 deaths (UK only) at the hands of Moslem extremists and one listed death by anyone else.

And of course, this excludes overseas numbers such as the 30 killed in Tunisia recently and the people beheaded by a British Muslim in Syria.

What is it about this list that is invisible to liberals?

http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/index.html#Attacks

Is it isolationism? - Let's pretend it isn't true by employing pointless statistics so we don't have to think about it (eg using US-only Moslem terrorism figures in a relatively small population with the FBI's definitions of terrorism made to deliver the wanted outcome).

Is it idealism? - It can't be true because we want to believe everyone can get along.

Is it fear? - If we close our eyes the problem will disappear.

Is it the complacency of a crowd? - Groupthink which thinks it must be right because everyone seems to agree with one another although no one actually says anything.

Good question, Cactus. No idea which one it is.

Blind liberal response to the Americans plus Briton who prevented an act of terror on a French train: why did they beat him so? Was it racism?
