the number of the muslims

"So it's not merely that there;s a global jihad lurking within this religion, but that the religion itself is a political project - and in fact an imperial project - in a way that modern Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, and Buddhism, are not. Futhermore, this particular religion is historically a somewhat bloodthirsty faith in which whatever's your bag violence wise can almost certainly be justified. And yes, Christianity has had its blood drenched moments, but the Spanish Inquisition, which remains a by word for theocratic violence, killed fewer people in a century and a half than the jihad does in a typical year."

Footnote: The Irish government now admits in its latest census data, whose figures date from 2011, that there are officially 60,000 Muslims in Ireland. I seem to remember the Irish Times claiming there might be approximately 30,000. The real present day figure far exceeds 100,000. We are in a lot of trouble. But if we expel them, they can wage all the jihad they like in Arabia, and it's not going to matter. It only matters if we let them live here with us. Heelers.
