Few if any people think ALL Muslims are terrorists.
There are some who are and saying so is different from saying ALL Muslims are terrorists.
Most Muslims are peaceful. But Islam teaches peace AND war with non-Muslims.
The perfect example of a Muslim, Muhammed was a warrior before becoming a prophet in 610. By 623 he was waging war again and did so the rest of his life.
How can Islam be only peaceful if MUhammed was a warrior?

People believe what they see, the only Muslims they've seen (on TV) have been terrorists. How many people have actually worked or lived with Muslims? Very few
Unless you've gone to Iraq, had an Arabic translator, lived in a place with a high Muslim population, or have lived abroad chances are you will only see the Muslims as terrorist because you've had no experiance.
But on the flipside, take a look at the majority of terrorist attacks against Americans: WTC bombing, USS Cole, Embassy bombings, Iraqi IEDs, 9-11. All Muslim. There are exceptions to that of course (Timothy McVee being the prime example), but people only focus on the minority of terrorist rather than the majority of peace loving people.

Has anyone said that all the Muslims are terrorists.NO.But when we condemn Islamic terrorists why should other Muslims take it as an attack on all Muslims.Why should they defend those Islamic terrorists who openly declare that they indulge in terrorism in the name of Islam,it is the reason why they are referred to as Islamic terrorists.
We don't defend or protect other terrorists like naxalites who consist of people of all religions and do so for reasons other than religion.Is there any terrorist outfit spread over almost the entire world doing such acts in the name of a religion.
But the moment somebody says something about those terrorists we see loud protests everywhere.That shows the level of intolerance among Muslims.
So the question should be why Muslims protest when we say Islamic terrorists,but remain silent when those terrorists openly bring religion into their acts.Don't they feel these terrorists are bringing a bad name to their religion.

Bcos muslims are fighting more against the bad and wrong things. They are Terror for bad elements in the society like how a police man is a terrorist for a thief. Now a days few police men are also found to be the leader for the thieves. As muslims believe that fighting for the truth is their duty and more people including many muslims are on the wrong path now. Truth is always not heard as Falsehood seems to be aloud first. Finally only the truth will prevail and win. Example Iraq, Palestine etc.

Not every Muslim is considered a terrorist, but every terrorist is considered to be a Muslim. That's not always the case though.

Because every muslim has an attitude, "i am holier than thou", everything else is false, its always i am better than you feeling, and imposing their religion on everyone else. Because Islam has an expansion policy. if a muslim falls in love with a non muslim the non muslim has to convert, because a muslim can love better. There are too many conditons to function. Leave alone the violent ones who are throwing bombs or killing innocent people just because they are kafir, subtle attitudes that are ingrained in ordinary muslims is a magnified version of the suicide bombers. It is not your fault, it s the doctrine that is divisive in nature, this is not to hurt you or put you down, i am just expressing my personal opinion. I am a psychologist and have read a lot based on the behavior of the terrorist. Belief molds behavior. It is easy for a muslim to love another muslim but it is hard for them to regard another person who is not a muslim. They are able to ignore the feeling of the other person just because they dont believe in what you believe. They fail to understand that in the other person also god lives. his soul is the same as your own soul, they fail to understand that hurting another soul is denying god inside you. And muslims say islam is a peaceful religion. how can it be a peace ful religion when another human soul is addressed as Kafir, that is rejection of god in the other, or labelling the other person, when the truth is God does not labell anyone, he loves us all as one. Why the discrimination? Is Discrimination divine in Islam?
I have not spoken about the terriorist, i am talking about the peace loving muslims. Think it over. I feel so upset sometimes to know that muslims are unable to see this truth and feel passionate about them missing this beautiful truth and leaving this earth with the only hope that because they practiced discrimination, hatred, and killed people they will get heaven. I wonder is this what you all have painted god to be!

I am in the Philippines and there are some Muslims here not many in Cebu but some and yes I watch them.
They are famous for kidnapping or just robbing foreigners that have something to lose.
It's much worse in the southern province of Mindanao. The MLIF recently killed 14 RP soldiers. 10 were beheaded. They were looking for a Priest the Muslims have taken hostage or killed by now.
I came to this Asian resort to relax and enjoy the sunshine, and I do, but I keep my gates shut and locked.

A 'terrorist' is one who does things to intimidate people.
Researchers have discovered that 'jews' were the pioneers in the field of terrorism. As far back as 65 A.D.they rebelled against the Roman Empire. Emperor Titus crushed the rebellion, destroyed Jerusalem temple and exiled the jews. For 1,812 years they wandered in Europe and were hated by the christians.They were systematically decimated under "pogrom".
In1877 they sought refuge in Palestine and resorting to terror tactics, they secured a homeland - state of Israel in 1948.
During the British regime they formed many secret armies.They blasted the King James Hotel in Jerusalem dressed like Arabs! Since 1948 they are indulging in "state terrorism".
Since the media is under their control, they
have succeeded in making the world believe that Muslims are terrorists!
Al Fatah and Hamas are only paying them back in their own currency!
No wonder that every one cosiders a Muslim as a terrorist.
The failed London and Glasgow blasts. the
sordid drama of Dr. Haneef's arrest and
release, all indicate that the bogey that 'Muslims are terrorists' is not valid.

As per im concerned there is no muslim terrorist . terrorist is always a terrorist , There should not be a religious added to it. It is our system which makes so much noice pin pointing only one religion , It is the Media to be blamed which shows and focus on only on religion, It is just the political game which is happening around the world because of the superpowers. let me ask you one thing what about LTTE, ULFA, or any other NAXELL groups they are all supposed to be terrorrists, becasue they also do what the so called muslim terrorrist do.But they are never focused or never spoken about.
It is just politics just politics game my friend
