maybe, just maybe. U.S.A. is destroying the Islam's reputation to make a "conquer the whole and stuff". in the Philippines, yes i can think of couple of muslims terrorists. but of course not all those terrorists are terrorizing because of religion. the are always "hidden agendas" they have and some terrorists just put the religion as a "excuse" to probably make money.oh and have heard of the group KKK?(i'm not referring to the first ones, you know the Filipino KKK, i'm clearly referring to the american KKK, although you could consider the Katipunan as a terrosrists during the Spanish occupation) they are a bunch of white Protestants who just wanted the rest of the skin colour race except white, out. they are terrorists, but they are definitly not anywhere near Pakistan or else where...
you know what? before you post another crap like this again, you should think open-mindedly for a WHOLE WEEK!!! you know how think like that right? you know, think of both sides of the story and analyze very careful. ok? good...

Right on, Kate D. Terrorism knows no race, religion, gender, or creed. Terrorists are, by definition, anti-religion because there is no religion that says "Go blow people up". And terrorism is NOT a part of Islam. No sane Muslim participates in it. And besides, Islam was started over 1400 years ago, before explosives.

what...........ignorance is not bliss....there was terrorism in other countries every heard of World War 1 or 2 or the Holocaust, Slavery, Skin heads, Christopher Columbus (claiming somone elses land then aiding in killing them off). There is terrorism every where by everyone, ever met Bush... The only reason we hear so much about the MIddle East is becasue they are who we are being showed. If anything America is America's biggest terriost..We need to be sure we are correctly educated.

Nope, there are others. Pakistan and Muslim terrorists just happen to be the ones being pissed off with the USA at this moment. So, CNN shows it on T.V. all the time. Back in the days when they were pissed off with the USSR we called them freedom fighters.
If people are willing to strap themselves with bombs and blow themselves up in public, that would call for some confusion, chaos and mis-understanding as well as news coverage. Don't blame the public if that's what the terrorists want the public to think.
Know what I mean?

It takes only a few misguided to spoil it for everyone else. With the western media always targeting the bad apples, people like you have this ignorant view of Islam. Terrorism doesn't have a religion.

There has been a lot of Muslim terrorism in Europe, too.
You are forgetting the bombings in London and Spain, the massive riots in France, and the murder of a documentary filmmaker named Theo van Gogh in the Netherlands.

Not All Terrorists Are Muslims & Not All Muslims Are Terrorists
According to the FBI, a Florida doctor arrested after police found more than 15 homemade explosive devices in his home allegedly drafted a detailed plan to blow up an Islamic educational center.
The search of Robert J. Goldstein's residence also turned up a list of about 50 Islamic worship centers in the Tampa-St. Petersburg area and other locations in Florida. Attached to the criminal complaint against Goldstein was a three-page "mission template" for an attack on an unidentified "Islamic education center," which included a map of the center showing where bombs would be placed.
Referring to Webster's Dictionary, "terrorism" is defined as "the unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons."
According to the damning evidence against the Florida podiatrist, there should be absolutely no hesitation in classifying Goldstein as a "terrorist." Yet, in news coverage from The Associated Press to CNN, there was not one mention of the word "terrorist"!
However, if we change one facet of this scenario, we would have a completely different ballgame. Instead of Goldstein, let's say his name was Dr. Muhammad. Assume the same bomb materials were found in the same Florida home. Instead of blueprints of Islamic centers and mosques, his house was littered with floor plans of more than 50 synagogues and Jewish day schools. In addition to the blueprints and the arsenal, there were scattered pages of his manifesto that claimed to eliminate all traces of Judaism from America. Surely, one would be hard pressed to find one person alive who would not consider the hypothetical man above a "terrorist."
So why the double standard? There was not one mention of Goldstein's religion or political affiliation in any of the media outlets. It would follow a simple logical progression that his fiery hatred of Muslims was either fueled by a dogmatic or political doctrine. Was Goldstein a Jewish extremist who wanted to rid this country of all "rags"? Was he a member of a militia group aimed at targeting those affiliated with the terrorists of last September? We don't know, because no one made his political or religious affiliation an issue!
On the contrary, the media wasted no time in classifying as a possible "terrorist" Hesham Mohamed Hadayet, the man responsible for the shooting at the El Al counter at Los Angeles International Airport in July. Hadayet, a disgruntled limousine driver from Egypt, was automatically categorized as a possible "terrorist" because he was an Egyptian Muslim.
In a rare flash of brilliance, the FBI cautioned the media against the classifcation. All evidence points to the fact that he was just a discontented limo driver who unjustly took his frustration out on innocent civilians. There were no AK-47s found in
his home, no treatise on his hatred of a religious or ethnic group. Yet, Hadayet was vilified as a possible terrorist, while the extent of Goldstein's vilification was that he was a "podiatrist from Tampa"!!
Not all terrorists are Muslims, and not all Muslims are terrorists. I know it's hard to believe, but mass violence in the advancement of a personal, religious or political agenda is not something exclusive to the Islamic paradigm. Before Osama bin Laden became the most infamous terrorist known to America, Timothy McVeigh used his perverted political agenda to slaughter 168 innocents, including many children, who were playing at the day-care center in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal
Building on that fateful day in 1995.
Last year, Irv Rubin, chairman of the Jewish Defense League, plotted to blow up a Los Angeles mosque and the office of a U.S. congressman. If these dastardly men are not guilty of terrorism, then no one can be honestly deemed a terrorist.
The incarceration of Goldstein shows quite vividly that terrorism knows no color or religion. If we want to be consistent with the Justice Department's current trend in the "war on terrorism," we should send Goldstein to a military brig in South Carolina. We should refuse him the right to an attorney and trample on his constitutional right to a trial by a jury of his peers. We should also classify him an "enemy combatant" and relinquish his standing as an American. All of the
aforementioned un-American activities, we have performed on Americans even circumstantially linked to "terrorism".
Only when we rightfully classify Goldstein as a "terrorist" and afford him the same treatment that we have bestowed on others charged with the same crime will I ever be convinced that this is indeed a war on terror and not on Islam.
