All Against All
Here's some sobering figures.
Islamist extremists in the world as estimated by moderate Muslim leaders: about 12 million. Fundamentalist sympathizers: 120 million. Those numbers represent 1 percent and 10 percent of the world's Muslim population of 1.2 billion. The CIA puts the extremists much higher — 40 million.
True, these are just educated guesses, but still they should make you stop and think. At the lowest estimate, that's about 12 million people who want me & you graveyard dead.
The gun turret that we're always kidding about building on our house in the hills is starting to not sound so silly.
