Muslims #1 victims in terrorist attacks http://www.commongroundnews.org/article.php?id=29603&lan=en&sp=0

Late last month, Yemeni officials claimed that Al Qaeda-affiliated gunmen allegedly took control of a munitions factory in southern Yemen and then booby-trapped the facility after looting it. Residents of the town who flocked to the factory afterward trying to recover what was left were caught in an explosion. Over 100 people were killed.Terrorists claim that by carrying out similar attacks, they are protecting Islam and fighting the “enemies of God”, clarifying in countless statements that non-Muslims are their primary targets.

Of course, killing anyone is wrong. And terrorist attacks carried out by Al Qaeda and affiliate groups have not exclusively targeted any specific religious, sectarian or ethnic group. In fact, numbers and statistics show that the majority of their victims are Muslims. A study from December 2009 by the Center for Combating Terrorism at West Point says that “the vast majority of Al Qaeda’s victims are Muslims” and that “only 15 percent of the fatalities resulting from Al Qaeda attacks between 2004 and 2008 were Westerners.”

[The study is wonderfull in showing soemthing msm will not even report on,however,AL QAEDA needs to b defined,and as msm describ it,it is nonsense and in that sense it doesnt even exist...now alqaeda in its true sense,is western security services,and their client regimes security services,and groups wich it controls...as far as alqaeda rebels in yemen grabbing weapons,those were just yemeni muslims most likely seking wepaons to houst saleh,with every right...
