Well, not all Arabs are terrorists and not all terrorists are Arabs. Stereotypes are a horrible thing.

Not all Arabs are terrorists, and yes the media is pretty poor in telling the real truth. However All the terrorists that seem to be getting caught are Arabs, and all the terrorists that are going public with their hatred are doing in the name of their religious beliefs, are all Arabs.
I am sure other groups have terrorist organizations

No, I don't believe all Arabs are terrorists but its not the fault of the media that some people believe that to be the case. I've spent more than 15 years discussion religion in chat rooms with people of all faiths, including a lot of Muslims. I realize that those who choose to visit chat rooms may not be representative of a faith as a whole, but in my experience only about 5% were friendly, loving people. Most were extremely rude, confrontational and were not interested in interfaith dialogue - only threats. That compares to about 80% of the Christians I ran across who were friendly loving people. I realize that its hard for an individual to stand up to those who are giving their belief system a bad reputation but I hope that the good Muslims will try harder because the trouble makers are very loud and prevalent. The media is only going to show what they can find to show.

Most of your terrorists are from the East , but they have migrated all over the country now. Initially, most terrorist were local in Germany througout Europe, but now since 911, it has been found that their organnization has spread throughout the Eastern Countries and even the United States.

The media has a HUGE part in steriotyping Arabs and Muslims. People don't realize these slanderous things effect real people lives.

The correct "label" to use is Islamic militant fanatics. Those are the ones that think all the killing is justified in the name of religion. What kind if religion is that?
To believe that all Arabs are bad is just plain ignorant of people.Just like any group, there are good and bad elements.
The ones that pervert a religion and use it as an excuse to commit premeditated murder have lost their minds!

no i don't, there are many other terrorists found in other parts of the world, and the media certainly plays a role in branding them as part of the terrorists group.
