Probably because the majority of terrorists are muslims. It is no coincidence that muslims are at war with people in Spain, Chechnya, Nepal, India, Kashmir, Bosnia, Britain, Palestine, Sudan, Timor, Indonesia, The Philippines, the list goes on. Either all these people in all these many diverse nations of different cultures, religious beliefs, and customs somehow all decided that muslims are evil and to be destroyed, or a single group of people bound by a common faith decided to wage war on all those who aren't like them. Call me crazy, but I find the second scenario to be far more plausible than the former.

I'm a non-Muslim myself, but know enough about their core faith to know that it isn’t set up for making terrorists.
The really odd thing is that Jewish, Christian, and Muslim aren’t that different in there beliefs. The greatest Jewish profit was Moses, Christians, and Moslems call him a profit as well. Christians believe that Christ was the son of God, and a great profit and teacher, and Muslims feel that he was a profit and teacher as well. They may not think he was the son of God, per say, but what is more important? Being the son of God or the message he left with us. The messenger is only as good as his message even if one is the son of God. Christ had a great message about peace and love. Most Muslims believe in peace and love also.
Terrorism has no part in any loving and caring belief structure, or for that mater the world. Nowhere in any of these great faiths does killing innocent people give one a direct path to heaven, in fact they don't much care about guilt or innocent in the killing equation at all. They all say to kill is wrong. Muslims did not invent terrorism, nor did the Christians , or Jews, but rather misguided pious jerks who have there own agendas and large egos and a dose of charisma mislead others into doing these stupid things, seldom putting themselves at any risk. Killing a bunch of people won't bring peace. It just makes people who loose loved ones angry and fills them with a terrible resolve. If terrorists felt they were right and would win in the end would they would go to such lengths to hide their identity. I don't clam to be all knowing, but bombing a bus full of children, or leveling a few blocks in Beirut aren’t on the path to heaven or to peace. And those people who call themselves religious leaders and teachers, who teach people how to hate should themselves be learning the roots of peace, hope and faith instead of blowing up classrooms so no one else can learn ether. These anti-teachers tell anyone that will listen to them that this will get their enemies attention, and they are right it will. The real enemies are the people teaching this nonsense. But the attention they attract is far from beneficial. and the world dies yet a little more. Most of these misguided people hear only the thunder of their voice as they speak. Talking isn't the hard part enlightenment listening is.
You can't teach someone who knows everything anything.

Many of the recent terrorists have claimed Islam as the reason for their attacks. The rise of Islamic terrorism has mostly occurred since the defeat of the secular Arab governments in the 1967 war strengthened the hand of the more fundamentalist sects. This in no way ignores the long history of terrorism by people claiming other religions (the IRA in Ireland was Catholic and there have been Christian terrorists in the US who bombed abortion clinics). It is also the case that none of these religions is inherently teroristic; certain followers radicalized because of the percieved need to fight a wrong to their people. But the fact is that those who use bombings of civilians to 'terrorize' them into submission in the context of a non-military struggle are terrorists. And currently there has been a wave of Moslem terrorists.

When you are raised to believe in something and everyone around you believes the same thing you will believe it is right. Its how we teach our young. So our great grandmothers, grandmothers, mothers have passed it down because its the norm. When men want to control women they isolate them and subject them to shame on a daily basis. Women lash out at other women because to do it to a man would mean severe punishment/death etc. How do you break the cycle? It seems the entertainment industry is the greatest threat. Its why its limited. I wonder what effect it is having on muslim women? Seeing that love and respect should be the norm could be a shock. Not being burned alive by your in laws. Not being a slave and breeding while your husband has mistresses. Not being castrated, sexually abused, sold. In America, we only started to demand it under 100 years. We are still new at it. We are still used as currency and subjected to the whims of the majority. Women and men alike are to blame. But that gets us no where. It needs to start with the young. All religious doctrines realize this don't they?

Ignorance, what else.
& the Muslims are so much helpless that they can't show them the true picture.
The majority of Muslim countries are under developed, the majority of Muslims are un-educated, The rulling class of the Muslim countries just want to remain in power so nothing can be expected from them, The Mullahs are loudly backing-up the terrorists from the Mosques & no one can stop them, The common & mostly un-educated Muslims celebrate the terrorist acts on the streets.
What the Muslims need is peace more than the non-Muslims so they can focus on the development of their countries & education of other Muslims.
Sadely Muslims are involved in almost every confrontation in the world today. All they need is to stay put, try to resolve the issues through peaceful manners & dialogue.

may be people of america should watch this video to decide if osama was the real culprit. it was released and directed by their own country men. the media and people whom americans trust are kinda stabbing them from the back. i would say that this video will be a eye opener for all americans. the decision is upto u if u want to see the thurth or not.
http://www.mpeg3.org/news/mp3/mp3_0.php
on september 23, 2001, post sep 11 attacks, condoleeza rice said,"....... we have enough evidence that it was osama and his crew that was behind the september 11 attacks and we will release it in due time........." but no proof and evidence was given.
5 years have passed sinced then and 2 unjust wars were declared on afghanistan and iraq, but even today miss. rice has not given us the proof and evidence. we want an answer for that before sir.b leaves his term.
1st they said that they had evidence for biological weapons in iraq but after the war they said that there was no biological weapons in iraq. and they have never apologised. what was the motive for the wars when they had no proof of biological weapons.? the whole world is waiting for him to show us the evidence.
and what is UNO doing about this? they do not seem to be taking any action at all.
US and bush says that no country should carry out nuclear research butwhy is it that he is sitting on a heap of nuclear weapons all from russia. and why is no one questioning him?

Some muslims are terrorists, and some arnt. But the thing is, if someone from say pakistan bombed london AGAIN it would be on the news and some police would be chasing after them and thats it. But if some pure white brittish people built a church in pakistan, there would be hell on and it would be like bloody world war three! and all it is is a church! We respect their religion (muslim) so why can't they respect ours? (catholic, prodestant) England should be more like Australia and not let immigrants in the country because all they do is have a child there and then say that their child is english so they can get in england!

It's how the news reports on Muslims and Terrorists and a general lack of knowledge of Muslims at least half the people I've heard talking about either Muslims or Terrorists (or both) didn't know that Muslims worship Allah, the Arabic (I believe, but then again, I don't know much of Muslims anyway) word for God.

There are no less than 164 verses in the Koran that call the Muslim to Jihad. There are also verses that instruct the Muslim to kill ("slay") the Christian and Jew.
Muhammad's dying words were, "May Allah curse the Christian and Jew"
While not all Muslims are terrorist, nearly all terrorists are Muslim. That is because Islam is a religion that teaches terror and fighting.
You do realize, that early in Muhammad's campaign he said not to kill, but he realized the Jews and Christians would not convert so he changed his message to one of war and terror, right?
While Jesus says to love your enemy and do good to those that persecute you, Muhammad said to lie and wait and seize those not willing to convert, to not take them as friends and to deal harshly with them.
It is no surprise, that terrorists are Muslim. It is what they are taught by their Christian and Jew hating moon-God.
