#1 after seeing what happens here in our own country, I believe that 13% is the percentage of nut cases-that can be rallied to any cause.

#2 And when your supply of religious fanatics runs low, just drug some weak-willed people, or get Down's syndrome patients to do it for you.

#3 15% of 200,000,000 is a lot of exploding fun-boys.
They should all go off at once, we could watch from here, it may look like the Aurora Borealis or something.

#4 None of the 9/11 hijackers were poor or downtrodden. In fact, most suicide bombers are from either the upper/middle class, or they're coerced into blowing themselves up. Very few are from the ranks of the poorest in any nation.

#5 Will those 15% please step forward and receive their bomb packets? Good. Now, on the count of three, pull on the red string. One, two, three, boom. Problem solved.

#6 However, nearly 50 percent of all those surveyed in Karachi believed that suicide bombing was acceptable in Palestine, Kashmir and Lebanon.

#7 so of a 100 Karachiites. 50 think suicide bombing is bad in general. 15 approve in general. 35 take the stand "its wrong and unislamic EXCEPT against Israel and in Kashmir"

That breakdown doesnt surprise me after following this stuff for years.
