Flashback: Shapiro On The Myth Of The Tiny Radical Muslim Minority

Chase Stephens

In light of Europe’s ongoing refugee crisis and the latest terrorist attacks by radical Islamists in Belgium, here’s a flashback to October 2014 when Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro made the case against the myth of the “tiny radical Muslim majority.”

In the video (above), Shapiro explains that there are approximately 1.6 billion Muslims in the world, then breaks down the radical Muslim populations of 15 countries based on Pew research polling. He defines radicalization as being a broader category than just the extremists actively carrying out terrorism; radicals are those in favor of such things as Sharia Law, honor killings, Al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc, says Shapiro.
