STALIN: The death of one man is a tragedy; the death of a million men is a statistic.
COROLLARY 1: Jihadis are only capable of tragedies; Americans and Europeans are only capable of statistic.
"Health Ministry Statistics say that the incidence of abnormal births has increased 400-fold since 1991. The Iraqis also say that, all told, 1.7m children have died because of the various effects of UN sanctions."
The Economist, September 14th 2002
COROLLARY 2: Therefore, Americans and Europeans are admired; jihadis are not.
COROLLARY 3: Only if (and when) jihadis are capable of statistics will they be respected.
