why do people think muslims are terrorists?

Answer 1

I do not think that...you got good and bad people in every religion..Terrorist miss use the muslim religion..

Answer 2

I guess we will see how true Islam is on the 22nd of August when the 12th Imam is supposed to return and start the cleansing of the non-believers from Earth as written. If he doesn't this will prove Islam is a false religion and the profit was false.

Because other than a few other whack-jobs the majority of terrorists were Muslims.

Answer 3

My Granny used to say:
If you don't want people shooting at you, don't give them any ammunition.

Awhile ago, there was a huge scandal when it was discovered that Catholic priests were molesting children, and being covered by their Bishops, etc. Most of the Christian world was outraged by this, and didn't mind speaking out against it. It has definitely put a rift between Catholics and other Christians.
Maybe, if Muslims would speak out against their terrorist brethren, more people would pay attention when we are told what a peaceful religion Islam is. Meantime, all we have to go on is what we see...and what we see are Muslim terrorists killing innocent people and hiding behind women and children.
If you are a Muslim who thinks Allah hates this sort of thing, please, say so, loudly. Meantime, I'm going to continue to be afraid of Muslims, and shun them, because I don't trust them. So will most people I know.....

Answer 4

Few orthodox & fanatic Muslims are terrorists but not all the
Muslims. Most of the Muslims are peace loving & hate those
orthodox & fanatic terrorists Muslims.

Answer 5

I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad[holy war]against the infidels[non-believers of Islam]of the world.And that by killing an infidel,which is a command to all Muslims,they are assured of a place in heaven.All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of their faith so they can go to Heaven.There are those who believe this and are in the process of executing at will.There are those that are just good Muslims,very peaceful,normal people.Then there are those who are taking to the extreme,and those are the terrorist.Hopefully someone will come to their senses and stop this madness so we can all get back to better more productive causes that will benefit everyone in the world.No matter what you believe PRAY FOR PEACE!!!

Answer 10

What we think is that terrorism is a tactic of choice for certain radical Islamo-fascist groups, who are promoting a worldwide "jihad" against Israel and the West. Unfortunately for Islamic people who would otherwise shun such behavior, many are being "radicalized" by the slanted and distorted islamic media as well as the active promotion of these views by certain rogue governments such as the one currently in power in Tehran. I know our western media sources are just as stupid, but the spiral of violence between Islam and the West only appears to be widening, IMO, for the foreseeable future. This conflict hasn't even begun, I'm sorry to say. In peace, Eagle.
