Not if you read the post. I pointed out that neo-nazis had killed less people, but commited at least twice as many attacks.

Of course the Neo-Nazis have killed less people, due to Islamic Terrorists killing 3200 odd people in one attack.

Its notable though that figures for the far right and extremists of their ilk don't include Timothy McVeigh either (around 148 )

Difference of course is that Islamist extremists in the US are underground, hunted domestically and internationally, where as the far right threat get to mount protests with firearms. The US is prepaired to violate national sovereignty to get an Islamist, as well as detain them without trial, apply torture etc etc.

Its the disconnect that's the problem.

Maybe, but it doesn't seem to have worked out that well with the US.

Terrorism seems more prevalent now than before they started the whole war on terror. Al-Quaeda still exists and functioning in numerous countries, whilst ISIS has grown to be a much more dangerous, influential player on the national terrorism scale.

Seems like the whole Sunni Jyhadist problem has gotten worse not better over the last two decades.

Yeah, but you don't stop trying to defeat cancer just because there's more of it about.

Cats are great - at least you don't have to take them for walks every day and put their poo in a bag.

Nope! They just walk into someone else's garden, s*** all over it and walk away, just like ...........

...and you don't have to report it after you have run them over; even if you had to reverse just to make sure.

This thread was for trying to keep track of the terrorist attacks wasn't it? Only two to report today, London and Brussels. Nothing to do with Islam I expect.

Don't make a fuss.
It's just routine stuff in a big city.
A bloke outside Buckingham Palace with a four foot sword is no biggy. Let's talk about Neo Nazis. They are the real threat.

That's true. I must admit when I first found out about it, I thought Prince Philip had decided to run amok. But no doubt the NHS would collapse without people with four foot swords shouting Allah Akbar.
