How big is the time window on this? Which geographical regions are considered?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_battles_and_other_violent_events_by_death_toll#Terrorist_attacks

Looks like from 1921-today, only counting attacks in which 50 or more people were killed. Globally


So to clarify, you're using a model based on attacks that killed 50 more people over the last century to predict the cause of an attack that took place today and killed nobody?

Like I said, nobody knows if anyone is guilty or innocent unless they are the suspect themself. Try to keep up please.

So why did you say "we know they are innocent"?

I'm not sure what the point of being on holiday somewhere is if you're just going to go about business like you have 30 minutes for lunchbreak on a tuesday at work.

How is her last name pronounced?


Pz-yi-bish

Kinda it's hard to explain how to say the rz. Imagine a sound imitating a lawnmower. The secret to improving polish pronunciation is not to emphasise the first sound of a word but the second.

I hate stuff like this. I have two polish kids and am the moment am relocating closer to London for work. There are towns I flat refuse to consider moving to because of the nationalist scumbag groups that reside in them and I feel like I have to make up reasons so I don't scare my wife. People in the UK are generally positive about poles, even if often for stupid reasons, it's just the chav class who need people to blame for why they're still scraping the bottom of the barrel.

I have two kids and don't spank them. I get the impression a lot of parents use it as a replacement to actual parenting. They don't bother building a relationship with their kids with a foundation on respect and then feel they have to beat it out of them once shit hits the fan. The funny thing is I see the same thing in manager employee relationships all the time, except a manager can't beat their workers so they just become an imploding ball of stress and rage.

50+ posts later and we're still caught up on such a blatant and redirecting lie


Not only that but the guy wasn't even attacking Christianity but rather saying that you can't attribute people's actions to scripture alone. He just chose a poor example out of ignorance. The main difference between Islam and Christianity is that the politics that has driven their violent histories is much more closely intertwined to the actual teachings of Islam. This is not an attack on either as without the conquest conducted in their name, neither would survive on the scale that they do today. History has been a survival of the most vicious.
