If I'm reading this right, this is a question about profiling, so allow me to explain.
If we know that X percent of a given population is terrorist, and that a different population (Muslim) has X+1 percentage, and the ONLY information we have availible on two people is that one is Muslim and one is the first population, then from our data the muslim is more likely to be a terrorist.
The problem with profiling is that it becomes mathematically ineffecient if you take it too far. Because if you profile a huge amount of the Muslim community, then you KNOW some of the people you profile aren't going to be terrorists, because you're profiling more people (in that given area) than there are terrorists! We covered this pretty intently in my microeconomics course (I have no idea why) but there's a certain percentage of people who should be of a given race, and any profiling beyond that is actually just ineffecient.
Now if what you're asking is "What data do you have to sugguest that a greater proportion of the Muslim community is terrorists than the others" well I don't know about that. And if you're asking "Why are you killing the non-terrorists instead of the terrorists" well you'll have to give a better reference: there's a "shoot first ask questions later" policy in effect, because it maximizes potential threats neutralized before they become threats (it also, however, is a gross violation of human rights).
As for Israel, it's called "conflict of interests." No one is wrong or right, they're all just fighting for their own motivations; the superpowers side with whoever they side with, and are going to continue to do so until you can make an arguement that it's in their best interest not to do so. That's part of what terrorism is: it's an arguement that "if you don't do what we say, we're going to blow the !@#$ out of you." But the superpowers have a lot of millitary might, so it's difficult for them to be scared off; they're better reasoned with, which is why the really big oil countries tend to have better relations with the US: they have someone to negotiate with. Other countries are sort of in the crapper: they got the short straw, as they can't fight back and they can't negotiate, so they continue to lose, and the more they push the issue, the more the big guns are going to push back.

There are several terrorist groups in this world, and they fight for different reasons. One of the deadliest terrorist organizations today is the LTTE in Sri Lanka, and they are not Muslims. They fight for a separate Tamil state in Sri Lanka. They have killed thousands, including a former Indian Prime Minister, by means of suicide bombers. However, their cause has nothing to do with their religions. Therefore, they are not branded as Christian or Hindu terrorists.
On the other hand, most Muslims, when they take up a cause – legitimate or not – say that they are fighting for a Muslim cause. This practice makes the rest of the world doubt their intentions, and eventually, all Muslims are branded as terrorists.
If the Palestinian or Iraqi issues are announced as human right issues rather than religious issues, the world might be more sympathetic to them. However, among Muslims, there is no effective leadership equal to that task.

Not 100% of Muslims are terrorists, but the majority of the Muslim population in many countries does support terrorism.
For example, even in a relatively peaceful Muslim country such as Jordan, the vast majority of the population (73%) believes "that suicide bombing and other forms of violence against civilian targets are justified in order to defend Islam from its enemies."

muslims are 100% NOT terrorist! It is all black propaganda to discredit the islamic faith. But fortunately, black or good propaganda, is always good publicity. Never in history of this world has more intelligent and educated people started to investigate themselves what this islamic religion is. So the outcome is, they made a comparative study and analysis of the difference of this islamic belief with that of their faith and subsequently converted to islam.
Some propaganda states that many muslims also converted to other faith, let's say a ratio of 100 to 1 who converted to islam. But to check the quality of this individuals. The muslims who left islam does not know what islam is really all about. And the one who converted to islam knows what the differences are in islam and the religion he left . By now, here in the Philippines, there is one top official in The church of God (IGLESIA NI CRISTO) who is a regular TV evangelist of this church is on its way to convert to Islam as many of his co members have done before him. This church is no ordinary church here. It has a very great influence on the ways of politics. Candidates always asked their approval for a sure victory.But this church don't have terrorist in their memberships, and the one who converted to islam are not terrorist.
This black propaganda really helps a lot in propagating islam.Good or bad propaganda is always good publicity.

Dear 786,
Muslims draw their inspiration from the koran. The koran has several "merciful" (!!) sections on dealing with those outside of the "ummah". It is these sections that Muslims believe in that makes them latent terrorists. Some choose to act on it. some keep it inside themselves. What is happening in the mideast by Israel is reprehensible. The koran is the main reason for all of this bloodshed. Burn your koran and become a humanist. Allah will be proud of you.

I know for a fact, and I am 100% sure, that not 100% of Muslims are terrorists. How? It's simple, if you happen to know one Muslim who is not a terrorist, you can know that not all of them are.

Brother constantly writing all this on my blog. You will not get the serious answer to all these questions because majority of the people have no knowledge they are infact brain washed by News Networks who are busy in spreading false propaganda as the news with their biased coverage.
