Is muslim synonymous with terrorist?

Answer 1

No because I personally believe Bush is the biggest terrorist of all.

Think about it... what is Bush's definition of a terrorist?

Not my definition, not yours, but his... he says terrorist are:
- ppl that hate freedom
- hate democracy
- hate the Ameican way of life
- use fear to control

Now think about his actions. He has:
- taken Iraq's freedom of choice and decided what government they will have for them
- when the Palestinians had a democratic election and elected Hamas as their government leadership, Bush denounced it. What is this? He only likes democracy when he agrees with the results?
- Bush has done more damage to the American way of life than any terrorist could have ever imagined.
- Bush's bullying the world and ppl who oppose him losing their jobs etc... is the biggest means of controlling with fear than any terrorist.

Answer 2

So, are all Japanese people Kama Kazies? remember WWII?
Terry Nichols was an American terrorist who blew up a federal building in Oklahoma.
Ted Kazinski was an American terrorist who blew up Innocent people as well.
So, then you must also be holding the belief that all school age children are terrorists since a lot of them are terrorizing their classmates.
Since Terrorists are from HATE and you are suggesting that Muslims are synonymous....then YOU must be a terrorist because you HATE!!!!
Turn the beat around. Stay in school

Answer 3

No and that is a dangerous road to start traveling down. Do we really want a religious war? The tension in the middle east has much more to do with a hangover of colonialism than religion. It just happens that the people who are against the old colonialist regimes (like the shah of Iran) are also Muslims. Also remember that to them when Americans say "God is on our side" and "Islam is an evil religion" they see us as a direct threat to their sovereignty...and then when we invade countries we just prove their point.

Here's a question...Is an F16 pilot bombing Baghdad neighborhoods a terrorist?

Answer 4

No, Muslim is not synonymous with terrorist.

Answer 5

Yes. That's an interesting answer given that my boyfriend, whom I sincerely love with all my heart, is a Muslim. However, in reading the Quran, makes numerous statements such as, "and slacken not in following up the enemy." The underlying belief of the religion is "kicking the *** of people who don't think like us, until they start to think like us." A lot of religions have had groups within them who worked the same way, but I am not aware of any other major religion who has war as one of it's main doctrines. My boyfriend told me that he became a Muslim because he found a religion where he was allowed to shoot someone who pissed him off... he's not like that, and he was young and angry at the time, but I thought that comment was very insiteful!

Answer 6

No, but the harsh reality is that of those that are terrorists, the majority of them are muslims. People should be profiled by intelligence if they fit the characteristics of a terrorist. They should do whatever it takes to keep America safe(even if it means wrongfully profiling someone). Sorry, safety first.

Answer 7

No all Muslims are not terrorists. It is the Islamic extremists that compose the majority of terrorists.

That would be like saying that because 70% of new AIDS cases every year are in the gay community all gay people have AIDS.

Or like saying that all Mexicans are illegal immigrants.

Or like saying that all Germans are Nazis

Or like saying that all Christians are Republicans.

Do you see where I am going with this? Stereotypes are very dangerous.

Answer 8

No, but terrorist is rapidly becoming synonymous with muslim.

Answer 9

Is Christian synonymous with mass-murdering evil torturing sub-human monster?

For the record, many terrorists have not been Muslims: Eric Robert Rudolph, Joseph Koney, Baruch Goldstein, Charles Taylor...

Answer 10

No it is not. There are good Muslim people I've met many. The problem is with extremist not the everyday people.
