I remember the Oklahoma bombing and the first picture was of some random brown muslim guy. Turns out, it was a white athiest.

Look up the FBI stats on radical muslim bombings on US soil vs radical christian vs radical athiest bombings. In fact, I seem to recall that radical jews had more attacks on US soil than radical muslims.

And since 9/11 was so neatly sown up, we'll never really know who was truly behind it.

McVeigh was sort of Catholic. He wasn't motivated by religious extremism, but he was not an atheist.

There's no such thing as a 'radical atheist' in the sense that you're using it, mate. Also, there's no mention of atheists in the FBI stats you speak of - http://www.fbi.gov/stats-services/publications/terrorism-200...

(Sorry, I'm sensitive to this, but then this is why we shouldn't be discussing religion and politics on HN...)

Alright, s/atheist/communist/

I was being lazy :P

Come on man. You are delusional!!! Terrorist attacks are 90% by muslim extremists... Stop living in a fantasy world... new york, washington dc, london, spain, egypt, turkey, mumbai, kenya, yemen, thailand, Philippines, russia etc... I am not saying all of them but 90% is probably very accurate...

Instead of blaming it on others, it should be addressed by the muslim world and not just denied. When a radical christian does something like, he is denounced by all christian leaders and people.
