Actually, the majority of terrorists aren't Muslim. It may seem that way, especially with all the press coverage. However, if you were to reasearch terrorists, you would find that actaully, a fair deal of terrorists are christians (although in a cult, not a Christian Sect that is recognized by the Gonverment.)
This question seems to be asked alot, or some varience thereof. Throughout History, there has always been a terrorist group of some form, trying to overthrow those that oppose them- in that sense, they are Liberationists. What makes them terrorists, is of course, their actions.
By no means is terrorism commited solely by Muslims- it has been comited by all religious paths, at some point in time. It is just at this point in time that Radical Muslims are getting the attention.

Most terrorists are actually un-educated. Then comes the environment where they live and what they see. Next comes poverty due to which they decide to become terrorist.
Now lets come on to your question. There are many terrorist all over the globe but none before and after except Osama had been successful to attack super power USA and Osama is still continuing to make efforts to still attack. And Osama Bin laden is a Muslim. So muslim terrorists are in lime light and thus, you feel that every terrorist is Muslim.

Yes this is right, EVERY MUSLIM IS NOT A TERRORIST, but sadly every TERRORIST in recent times is a Muslim. Are we forgetting the Bader Menhoff of Germany or the Red Army of Japan. However in the recent times the word Terrorist is complimentary to Muslim, because of a embedded mis-conception in the minds that Islam breeds terrorist.
I would have ventured to argue against this point but for what I see around me. I see the narrow minded altitudes and short sighted visions of the Islamic Clergy and the mis-understood and deep-rooted misconceptions that go a long way in breeding Terrorists.
I have seen families sending at least one son to a Islamic School because it is believed that if he becomes a HAFIZ a numbers of generations will be rid of all sin. This child, faces inhuman treatment at the hands of his teachers and also one day grows up to be a equally inhuman character, armed with only the narrow vision of Religious Knowledge, lacking secular knowledge, this is FIRST CLASS MATERIAL FOR ANOTHER ISLAMIC TERRORIST

Every terrorist is NOT a Muslim!
What about William Pierce of the National Alliance, Richard Butler of Aryan Nations, and Matt Hale of the Creativity Movement and Timothy McVeigh. These were all home grown good ol boys.
NONE OF THEM WERE MUSLIM!

You are wrong.Not every terrorist is a muslim.There are Sri Lankan terrorists & as far as I know all Sri Lankans are definately not muslims.
Many Indians are also terrorists.Terrorism is not because of muslims,it is because of humans who have nothing better to do in their lives.
Terrorism can be stopped only if we co-operate with each other.Many terrorists are mistaken people or people who have been forced to do so.
Not all terrorists are bad.I feel we should make an attempt to understand their feelings also.What do you say?

While every Muslim is not a terrorist. the terrorist groups are influencing the Youth of a particular community by misquoting the religious scripts. Thus youth from a particular community are more conspicuous with activities of terror. It is the duty of religious leaders of that community to counsel them.
So they cannot blame the investigative agencies in targetting specific groups. It is for this community to come clean and create confidence in all concerned.

Me thinks you listen to Fox news too much. Try alternate news sources that are less propaganda-ish. Like "Democracy Now"-(TV/radio or website) Or you can go to an Islamic website like Islamonline.net and see how Muslims feel about terrorism. Violence and war are worldwide and many times perpetrated by "legitimate" governments by way of its army or police force terrorizing others. Muslims are now identified by the West as the new "boogeyman" to get people to do what government leaders want them to do, draining its citizens pockets to fuel war....they need to instill fear. Although some fear and safeguards are warranted, it is overblown and is not limited to any racial or religious group. You should fear getting into a car more than anything-a common cause of severe injury and death. If Muslims or people from countries with alot of Muslims were so dangerous, we should have shipped them all out of our country and never allow anyone of them in again. But since government hasn't done that, it must be that they are not all that.

Disagree. you're completely incorrect, Its the biased media that's giving the call of terrorist to the extremist communities of Muslims. In India, Hindu extremists communities are killing 100s of harmless Christians, Muslims & Sikhs per annum and are destroying the places of their worships. at the instant are not they terrorists? Tamil Tigers in Sri-Lanka are battling with government troops & are doing extra undesirable issues than those Muslims suffering in Kashmir, Tamils who're supported with the help of India are in basic terms rebels, on an analogous time as the Muslims of Kashmir are categorized as terrorists with the help of the comparable India. I even have an incredible know for Irish human beings & eire, however the media by no ability ever reported as the IRA as terrorists for the bomb blasts in England. in case you nevertheless think of that the media isn't biased & each and all the terrorists are Muslims then you definately're a RACIST.

Every terrorist is a Muslim?
What a naive individual you are. The KKK, the Japanese Kamikazes, the crusaders, the IRA, the Iamil Tigers, the Mafias, and so many others on Earth happened to be NON MUSLIMS. Go back to the books and read once again your current events.

Let me make this clear.Terrorism is not associated with any religion.No religion preaches 2 take up guns and kill people.Terrorists may claim to belong to a specific religion but it is not the fault of the religion and there may be other people of the same reiligion who lead a noble life.
Terrorism is the greatest threat to the world.We should stop the blame game and should combat terrorism irrespective of any religious basis.
