After ten days of the Islamic festival of Ramadan where pious and extreme Muslims skip lunch then pop out for a bit of murdering people, we are starting to get some idea of the average daily body count. Although some days the peaceful religion of Islam has killed more than on other days, the average death toll for the last few days stands at roughly 25 per day. The current death toll from Islam according to the Religion of Peace website is now 252

This means that the followers of Islam, the woefully misnamed religion of peace have snuffed out the lives of 25 people each day who were just going about their business and were murdered for numerous Islamic reasons such as not being Muslim or being the ‘wrong’ sort of Muslim. Each day of the first ten days of the 28 day festival of Ramadan has seen numerous innocent people murdered and they have been murdered for primarily Islamic reasons.

If the followers of Islam are averaging 25 dead bodies per day and with another 18 days of this festival of bloodletting to go, we could be looking at a total death toll by the end of Ramadan of 644. However, although this is a relatively low figure for Islamic deaths from violence at Ramadan, there is still the possibility that violent Muslims who feel that it is ‘praiseworthy’ to kill at this time of year to push this figure up. All it would take is a couple of spectacular ‘Allah hu akbar’ incidents and the figure could quite easily push the figure either to my original estimate of 900 or even higher.

When reading the death toll associated with Islam’s major religious festival, can you still put your hand on your heart and with a straight face say that ‘Islam is a religion of peace’? I know I can’t.
