Would you consider this saying to be true ?

Question

"All Muslims are not terrorists, but all terrorists are muslim"

I believe it was ann coulture that said it but i could be wrong .

Answer 1

No. Timothy McVeigh wasn't a Muslim. The crazies who bomb abortion clinics are usually right -wing "Christian" extremists with no ties to the Middle East. There's home grown terrorists in every country and religion.

Answer 2

No, not true. The first half is correct but not all terrorists are Muslim. What about the IRA? Red Brigades? Bader Meinhof? Russian mob? Chechnians? North Koreans? Those losers who blew up the Federal Building in Oklahoma City? David Koresh in Waco?

(By the way, here's another saying: "Not all bigoted right wing idiots are Ann Coulter but...")

Answer 3

Ann Coulter is a terrorist, if you ask me. The things that come out of her mouth and from her pen are poisonous and disgusting. It wouldn't surprise me at all if she is the one who said it.

I do not believe it to be true, no... the men they arrested in Florida were not Muslim and neither was Timothy McVeigh, who blew up the Federal Building in Oklahoma City.

Therefore, if Ann Coulter said it... well... consider the source.

Answer 4

It is not a tautology.

There are non-muslim terrorists. And if Ann Coulter said that, then it exposes her ignorance.

Timothy McVay was not a Muslim. Neither was the guy who sent bombs in the mail from his shack in the northwest (God, why can't I remember his name.)

Ann Coulter is obviously feeding her greed with the ignorance of impressionable right-wing idiots. Just as Bill O'reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Hannity and Colmes reap their wealth from impressionable, but ignorant, right-wing fools who don't have enough energy to think for themselves, and want to be spoon-fed an opinion that "Supports the Troops", and "Waves Old-Glory Proudly."

Answer 5

No this is definitely false.

What about the IRA has done in England? What about the way Israel treats the Palestinians by bulldozing homes and launching missile strikes on civilian targets.

Let’s also not forget what the United States did to Nicaragua in the 1980’s. Our governments acts of aggression against the Nicaraguans were condemned by the world court as terrorism.

Answer 6

Terrorists who weren't muslim:
The Unabomber.
Timothy McVeigh
Those two kids who shot up Columbine.
Earth Liberation Front (I believe that's the name)
Various neo-nazi organizations.

However, there is a point in that the most organized, high-impact terrorism of today do seem to be Muslim. That isn't to say its *because* they are Muslim, but it is a point.

Answer 7

I don't consider the second part true. For example Timothy McVey who was responsible for the Oklahoma City bombing certainly was a terrorist, and certainly was not a Muslim. There are terrorists in every culture. How about Hitler?

Answer 8

that is kind of like the math logic problem. If all tacks are tics, and all snicks are tacks how many are tics? There are many terrorists of all kinds right now the Hamas, Hezbollah and Al Qaida are the most predominate but there are others, The terrorists in S America are S Americans. It is too much of a generalization.

Answer 9

No there are factions of fundamentalism in at least two other religions. One more famous christian fundamentalist was a man named Timothy Macveigh, Im sure youve never heard of him. As a matter of fact there are also fundamentalist Jews throughout the middle east. The problem is not Islam but fundamentalism and those that would use violent means to spread thier beliefs.

Answer 10

Tim McVeigh was a white Christian terrorist. And you had the Bad-er Minoff of Germany, the Red Brigade of Italy, the IRA and the ETA and the Basque separatives of Spain. That's just the ones that I know of.
