More than 95% of the victims of jihadist terror are Muslim and nearly 70% are Sunnis murdered by Sunnis. There are other deprived groups in the world. Aren't there deprived Christians in Africa? Haven't Jews been persecuted and deprived wherever they lived? Aren't the Copts deprived in Egypt? Aren't the Romani people deprived all over Europe? Aren't black people deprived? Oddly enough, none of these groups has produced a sect engaged in organized, worldwide murder.
