An (alleged) white nationalist makes a terrorist attack in New Zealand to a mosque, killing about 40 people, and the west goes absolutely crazy. Everybody politicizes it and plays the blaming game and demands all kinds of draconian measures to be taken to punish people who have absolutely nothing to do with the incident (ironically exactly what the terrorist was explicitly aiming for).
Now, let me ask you a question: Do you know how many fatal terrorist attacks have been committed by Islamic terrorists, and how many people have been killed by them, in the past week (as of writing this)? Not the past year, or the past month. The past week.
I bet you have absolutely no idea. Probably for all you know there hasn't been a single such attack, because basically no news source reports them.
The reality, however, is rather shocking. Merely in the past week, ie. between 17th March and 24th March of 2019 there have been a total of 33 terrorist attacks by Islamic radicals, claiming the lives of a total of 220 people, and injuring another 168 people. (Info from here.)
In one single week.
And this is not an unusually large amount in this particular week. This is a rather normal week.
Yet, how many news stories have you read or seen about any of these attacks? Where is the outrage? Where are the massive online campaigns demanding a stop to this?
Islamic terrorist attacks around the world are literally a daily occurrence. So daily that it's not unusual to get half a dozen attacks in one single day. At this very moment, when you are reading this, it's highly likely that an Islamic terrorist attack is being committed, or about to be committed, somewhere around the world.
Yet you'll never hear about it, unless you explicitly go your way to find about it.
Why is that?
