Here you go Butchpenis.

Muslim-majority countries have been involved in a large share of armed conflicts, especially civil wars. Studies note that "most civil wars" in recent decades (particularly post-Cold War) have taken place in Muslim countries. One analysis of conflicts involving Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) states from 1947–2014 found 121 total conflicts across 56 OIC states, with ~76% involving Muslim actors (states or non-state groups) when combining interstate and intrastate cases.

In peak years like 2012, all or nearly all active civil wars were in Muslim-majority countries (e.g., Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sudan, Somalia, Syria, Yemen). Over the past decade or so prior to major non-Muslim conflicts (like Ukraine), more than 90% of civil war victims were in Muslim countries. Muslim countries show higher rates of civil war experience (around 41% of 49 Muslim countries vs. 27% of Christian-majority ones in some datasets).

Sudan, Palestine/Israel-Gaza, Syria, Nigeria, and others. Many high-fatality or high-event conflicts remain concentrated in the Middle East, North Africa, Sahel, and parts of Asia with Muslim-majority populations or significant Islamist insurgencies (e.g., Islamic State affiliates, JNIM, al-Shabaab, Taliban-related). Africa (with many Muslim-majority or mixed states) often has the highest number of state-based conflicts. Securitypolicylaw.syr

For starters you’re the king at not answering ****

There’s a difference between uranium and nuclear weapons. There’s zero suggestions of them producing nuclear weapons. You can’t just assume **** and then pretend it’s reality

Was Iran desperately seeking a nuclear device? It doesn't matter how far you are on the road, your still on the road. If they didn't want nuclear weapons, why are they willing to be obliterated rather than give it up? You are straining at gnats and swallowing camels. That's reality.

Obama negotiates a deal, gives Iran $40 million and GOP loses their mind.

Trump rears up deal, hundreds of Americans inured and/or killed, billions wasted and then Trump gives them billions. GOP celebrates.

It’s a cult

I believe it was a whole lot more than $40mil but the point is valid.

Yet they kill anyone who converts to Christianity, speaks out against Islam, or commits a wide number of other religious related crimes.

Why do you always feel the need to defend this stuff? I’ve seen you in numerous threads attempt to defend how Muslim countries treat homosexuals, Christian’s, etc.

Because @rikberry31's assertions are ignorant tripe which I know to be false. Here's a better question: why do you defend them?
To say what you mentioned is orthodox belief is to ignore reality. If it were true, areas ruled by Muslims would be 100% Muslim and would have been for hundreds of years, and most are far from it.
Why don't you explain what @rikberry31 can't? If Muslims' beliefs tell then to kill those who don't convert, how have there been non-Muslim communities in Muslim countries for many hundreds of years?

The people that actually viewed their programs and had cameras in facilities said no. Not sure what you’re not understanding

If my assertions are ignorant tripe why can't you answer my questions except for name calling. Typical lib. You have no answer. By the way make room in the trophy case, Trump gave you another L today. Must be frustrating.

Obama sent about $5B in cash on pallets to Iran. That fomented a lot of terrorism and civil wars.

If they didn't want nuclear weapons, why are they willing to be obliterated rather than give it up? All they have to do is hand over the uranium and stop pursuing nuclear weapon and they won't do it. They rather get wiped out and they and you say they don't want a nuke, weird.

There’s only been one (1) in the history of the US Navy.

A junior officer attempted to take over his vessel with dreams of turning it into a pirate ship. Sounds pretty effin rad to me.

His superiors didn’t think so… they hung him.

🐂 💩. 13 Dead. Around 5–10 were seriously wounded.

Approximately 13,000 to 14,000 U.S. active-duty servicemen (and servicewomen) seek medical treatment for injuries each day during peacetime (non-combat) conditions. U.S. Army

User Clip: Tulsi Gabbard: Iran is not building a nuclear weapon

Tulsi Gabbard to U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee, March 25, 2025: "The IC [U.S. Intelligence Community] continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon, and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003."

She continued on ...

"In the past year, we have seen an erosion of a decades-long taboo in Iran on discussing nuclear weapons in public, likely emboldening nuclear weapons advocates within Iran’s decision-making apparatus. Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile is at its highest levels and is unprecedented for a state without nuclear weapons."
