Hush, Now!

Tch, the United Nation, that formal
bastion of political correctness
has temporarily lost its way. Its
uncommonly incautious flirtation with
Islamophobia surely speaks of a
random forgetfulness, in its
temporary pivot to the unerring
statistics leaving it teetering on
charges of libel from that
redoubtable source, the Arab League.
But there they are, the figures 
that tell quite a story indeed. It is
a story in which pride and honour
absent themselves, summarily
shoved out of contention by the
misfortune of verisimilitude. As
per example, these nit-picking
details of which the devil is so fond
that the Arab world is where five
percent of the world's population
calls home, yet is responsible
for 45 percent of global terrorist 
attacks. Truly a formidable reality.
But wait, there's more as in the
fact that 17.6 percent of violent
conflicts roiling the world and 68.5
percent of deaths related to battle,
47 percent of internally displaced
emanate from the Arab world. Which
just incidentally, owns 43 percent
of total proven oil reserves to
produce one third of the globe's
oil supply, enabling it to lavish
treasury on military spending to
an extent 65 percent steeper than 
globally. Caution: Should you repeat 
this you obviously are Islamophobic.
