    Considering there is no Global Islam Movement, I'd say job done.

In addition to that, nearly all of them are concentrated in a few countries, such as Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Somalia, and so on. In places like Albania and Bosnia, people who support Islamic terrorism in any form is unheard of. So really, we're not only talking about a tiny percentage of Muslims, we're talking about certain nationalities, not a Global movement.

    Now with that being said, I'm all for banning any group that openly supports terrorism. However, calling it a Global movement is just silly.

    7% of 1.7 billion is 119 million. I'd say that's a global movement.

    But it's not Global, it's confined to a few countries. And sure, 119 million is a big number, but it's nothing compared to the Muslims who oppose Jihadism.

    According to you. I'll believe Muzaffar Iqbal, who has studied the movement just a tiny bit more than you have.

    What did I say that you disagree with? That it's a small percentage or that it's mostly confined to a few countries?

    You said you didn't trust me on there not being a Global Islam movement. So, which part do you think I got wrong? There part where only a tiny percentage of Muslims support Jihadism, or the part where most extremists live in only a few countries?

    And I explained to you why he's wrong. The number of Jihadist Muslims is tiny when compared to the number of moderate Muslims. And the Jihadist Muslims are mostly confined to a few countries, which means this isn't a Global movement. It would be like looking at today's Fascist Christians, which are confined to a handful of countries, and saying there is a Global Fascist Christianity.

    119 million isn't a tiny number. Perhaps you should invite them to lunch and get a perspective that way.

    Taken out of context. My full quote was "The number of Jihadist Muslims is tiny when compared to the number of moderate Muslims."

    I guess you did it wrong, because 119 million is a tiny number when compared to 1.8 billion.
