- beat 10y agoWell, it depends on your point. Your point seemed to be that Arab Muslims are uniquely violent, that terrorism is their own thing. Look at the 1970s, and you see plenty of terrorism from Europeans.
- tptacek 10y agoI don't know about the Irish in particular, but the list of links you've presented --- sorted by casualties, on a year-by-year basis --- makes a powerful case for the diversity of terrorist attacks in the 1970s. It doesn't well support an argument that terrorism is somehow endemic to specific ethnicities.
