Math in world politics


Too few Americans understand that the whole time we were fighting in Afghanistan, and Iraq, and in the Horn of Africa, that we were actually fighting Iran all along. Not sure why this is a mystery to so many Americans. Finally, instead of fighting the claws of the lion, we are chopping off its head.


There are 2 billion Muslims in the world. If we were to play the "but not all Muslims" game, let's explore the numerical implications. Let us be extraordinarily charitable and presume that only 10% of Muslims are violent in their desire to impose Islam on the rest of us. This means that there are 200 million Muslims that are deeply problematic to our way of life.

This leaves 1.8 billion Muslims. How many of those would sit idly while the 200 million are killing and subjugating the world?

Let's assume that 50% of the remaining 1.8 billion were to be apathetic (a very charitable assumption). This would mean that 200 million would cause global mayhem while 900 million would watch idly.

What about the other 900 million? Would they take up arms to fight on behalf of the non-Muslims? Well, the 1,400-year history of Islam suggests otherwise. Hence, the fact that there are hundreds of millions of Muslims who will not go around killing you is utterly immaterial.

Oh and by the way, there are 15 million Jews in the world. Hope these figures help.
