Congratulations, House Republicans!

I always rely on spoiled homosexual elitist and a liar. Shoebats site does not make up the terror attacks they report. Even if he is a fake he is dedicated to showing the true side of fundamental Islam.

So the Doperino admits that a lie is a good lie if that lie justifies ColdDope's hate?

It says nothing about hate. For liberals that would be getting the message(and this time the truth) out. This is no different.

No worries. coldjock doesn't allow facts to confuse his issues.

a fraudulent scam artist is gud as long as it agrees with ColdDope

A July 10th article on Loonwatch, modestly titled “TheReligionOfPeace.com: Working to Streamline the American Empire’s ‘War on Terror’”, appears to be a slightly more sophisticated attempt to disparage the list of attacks. After years of implying that the incidents on the list were fabricated, it seems that someone at Loonwatch actually analyzed a month’s worth of TROP data and could not find a single one that had not occurred. The focus then shifted to absolving Islam of responsibility for the attacks based on a handful of items that appear to fall into a grey area.

Before delving into a detailed response (in which I expect to lose a few readers) I will point out that I have always said the TROP list is not a scientific product but rather an honest effort to gather an accurate record of true Islamic terrorism. I define an attack as an incident of deadly non-combat violence in which it can be reasonably assumed that religion was a key motive (it does not have to be the only factor). I am committed to truth and always open to correction. At one time in the past, in fact, I even tried (unsuccessfully) to dialogue with the Loonwatch staff.

According to the July 10th article, Loonwatch is now admitting that the violence on the TROP list is real, but claims that about 7% of the incidents are either not terrorism or not Islamic. This is a fair complaint, but even if true, hardly justifies the over-the-top conclusion that I am guilty of a “propagandistic spin-job” replete with “lies.” Why would anyone intentionally taint such a large list with bad seeds? Obviously, the truth is more complicated and requires a closer look.

Loonwatch combed through 203 fatal attacks from about June 6th to July 7th, 2012 and found only 15 with which they took issue (one of these had already been removed from the list, but more on that later). Of the 15, seven were “honor” killings and the other eight allegedly fall into four additional categories which should have precluded them from a list of Islamic terror.
