As Golda Meier said suicide bombings will stop. when the Arabs love their children more than they hate ours
 
Golda Meir having made that stupid racist comment after rejecting a peace offer from Egypt more favourable than what Israel eventually settled for after Egypt went to war to get its territory back.

Racist? Perhaps. She should have said ‘Muslims’ instead of “Arabs,” I guess.
 
From the article:
*More than 95 percent of all suicide attacks are in response to foreign occupation, according to *extensive research that we conducted at the University of Chicago’s Project on Security and Terrorism, where we examined every one of the over 2,200 suicide attacks across the world from 1980 to the present day. As the United States has occupied Afghanistan and Iraq, which have a combined population of about 60 million, total suicide attacks worldwide have risen dramatically – from about 300 from 1980 to 2003, to 1,800 from 2004 to 2009. Further, over 90 percent of suicide attacks worldwide are now anti-American.

Ok let’s get this straight according to this obvious left-wing college professor who IMHO doesn’t have a clue about military strategy or military history to stop the attacks this is what America needs to do:

· It’s all Americans fault; say we’re sorry.
· When attacked run with the tail between our legs withdraw all our forces around the world.
· Hide behind our borders then all attacks will stop.
· Peace and Love, Peace and Love.

He needs to explain the Major at Fort Hood who murdered 14 people he was never under any occupation he did it in the name of Allah, or the grenade attack by an NCO in Kuwait both are American citizens never occupied and both did it in the name of Islam.

As I stated before on these boards I’ve been to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the majority of the Saudi people are good people and would not do a suicide bombing.

However when you put little children in schools and brainwash them that you are hero to God if you do a suicide bombing what little kid would not jump at the chance to honor God I know I would have if I was taught that.

Of course what to you thing of the 9/11 bombers who before they did it went to strip clubs and escort services to have sex before they honored God.

It is racist to point out the cowardice of Palestinian leadership to send their children to blow themselves up while they were wining and dining all across Europe?

I don’t think we can really know. Are there any statistics available one way or the other?

I don’t know…that’s why I asked. I’ve never seen a report telling of a Christian suicide bomber in the Middle East, but I’ve seen a few reports of radical Muslim suicide bombers. If you have something pointing out Christian suicide bombers, I would appreciate hearing about them.

To be fair this is a one sided opinion by a left leaning college professor so I don’t care a rats butt about the percentages—that guy doesn’t have clue.

Statistics can be so adjusted into the persons favor to agree with their paper/article/opinion.

Fair enough…did any of the Christian PLO blow themselves up to kill innocent bystanders?

Did they blow themselves up? Don’ t know. Did they organize terrorist activities? Yes.

Thanks Gilliam. I guess Golda Meir was accurate in using Arab, then.
