That is how you define, "very long time"?
Yes. How do you define a "very long time"?

How long does Turkey have to remain stable before you acknowledge that the peace is not merely "temporary"?

The Order - http://www.tkb.org/Group.jsp?groupID=120 Larceny and property destruction isn't terrorism. When was the last terrorist attack from these guys?

US Domestic Terrorism overview - http://www.cfr.org/publication/9236/ Ooo, an overview. When was the last terrorist attack from this group? hahaha.

Then what qualifies as terrorism? You seem to be using very specifc definitions. Maybe you should give us your own pet definition.

Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-M) - http://www.tkb.org/Group.jsp?groupID=3531 - Non Muslim.

United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (AUC) - http://www.tkb.org/Group.jsp?groupID=126 - Non-Muslim.

Basque Fatherland and Freedom (ETA) - http://www.tkb.org/Group.jsp?groupID=31 - Non-Muslim.

Consider yourself owned.

It is safe to say that you are in the minority in believing that peace is only temporary unless it lasts over a century.

By your definition, peace in Japan and Germany is only temporary. That is retarded.

A century?
Usually a couple peaceful transfers of power are a good indication that the democracy is stable. If a democracy is going to fail it will do it pretty (*)(*)(*)(*) early on, before the masses have accepted the process of elections.
Mexico's democracy is less stable than Turkey's and they're Catholic.

Another interesting tidbit of news: "Iraqi VP proposes creating a Shia state in the south of Iraq".

Hmm.... suppose this might affect the timetable?

Killing or maiming civilians, deliberately. If a muslim assasinated an IDF general, I wouldn't consider that terrorism, but a tactic during wartime.

Catholic countries are based on Religion. Muslim countries are the religion.
