21. Bull, Muslims have been the most harmed by jihadists

Take a look at Syria and Iraq recently: tens of thousands raped, murdered, beheaded because they don't subscribe to the right brand of religious ideology, and are considered "infidels." Hundreds of thousands (millions) displaced. Or just the other day in Nigeria, when a ten-year-girl had a bomb strapped to her back and killed 19 people and scores of others in a marketplace. Or last week, when Boko Haram massacred up to 2,000 people in one town, establishing their "Islamic Caliphate."

You can't look this in the eye and then shift the conversation elsewhere. Extremist ideology committing violent acts is just what it is. To try to shift the conversation elsewhere is to be complicit in these murders. Silence is death. Empty rhetoric abets the carnage.
