As "one man's terrorist is anothers freedom fighter" I suspect that it depends more on your point of view than any 'fact'.\n\nPeace out

Yes not all terrorists are Muslims. Unfortunately, MOST religious terrorism is committed by Muslims. So, statistically, a terrorist is more likely to be a Muslim than any other religion.\n\nAddition: Christians are more numerous than Muslims yet commit less terrorism. Also, the Chinese (Confuciusims?) are way more than the Muslims, yet they don't commit terrorism. Also, if you read my answer it says RELIGIOUS terrorism i.e. terrorism in the name of religion. IHMO, Islam is the only religion where such a concept is supported by scripture.

The answer is YES\n\nIn the "Global War On Terror" where Terrorists are the enemy, YES Most Terrorists are Muslim. You left a quantitative loop hole "most" and therefore it must be recognized also that NOT ALL Terrorists are Muslim and conversely NOT ALL Muslims are Terrorists. But in the current world the largest portion of Terrorists that pose a threat the to the national security of most (if not all) free and sovereign nations are Muslim extremist.\n\nNow about the IRA... International Terrorists... same as Al Quida and Islamic Jihad etc... \n\nTimothy McVeigh - Domestic Terrorist - Only a threat to national security of his home nation (well... when he was alive that is) \nMAFIA, Organized Crime, etc... - No direct threat to national security - in fact - probably operate to some degree with respect for governmental authority as those criminal organizations that have been most successful have been able to "work the system" to their favor and take advantage of the laws of the land  - i.e. Al Capone would never have been able to build his empire (started by boot-legging Canadian Whiskey into The US) had the 18th Amendment never been created.

Islam is far from Terrorism just as the Sun is far from the Moon.\n\n\neither beleive that theres no relation or not i dont really care if you want to think whatever you want but that is the truth theres no relation.\n\nand here what almighty Allah said in the Holy Qur'an:\n\n"Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors. "\n\nAl-Baqarah 2 190 \n\ntransgressor : someone who transgresses; someone who violates a law or command; "the way of transgressors is hard"

hahahah. It has to be Osama. Perhaps you will find a playgirl magazine with Osama's photos in their bathroom. \n\nIt's funny some of the liberals are associating christian values to conservatism, as if the liberals are atheists.\nIn fact they themselves support fanatics like Bin Laden.

thats something that has never been made clear by those who point fingers and scream TERRORIST . in alot of peoples eyes its anyone of the muslim faith. in my eyes its anyone who pushes their political agenda with fear tactics that includes those who would scare americans into voting for a certain party  by shoving fear into their face.

Republican In Name Only-RINO.  Someone who believes in freedom, but believes in huge government spending. A moderate, meaning that they don't take a firm position on anything.\n\nNow if you believe in low taxes, low restrictions on business, freedom, respect for all religiions and believe the founders had no problems allowing it in the public square then you are a full-blown conservative.  Next time your accused of such throw this back at them with pride and watch their face, it's kinda fun

Why should we support a terrorist organization just because it was democratically elected?\nHitler, too, was democratically elected. \n\nWhy all together, should we support people who danced on the streets on 9/11?\nThey hate our guts because we represent humanistic values which are anti-Islamic. \n******\nThey don’t hate the West because of Israel. NO they hate Israel, because it is a part of the WEST in their midst.\nAs such it is too much of a exposure of the failure of their Islamic “cultutre”

I think he made fatal mistakes with Islam as he related it with terrorism. I believed that Islam encourage peaceful mind and hate wars.

I do not buy the lie for one second.  Who are these people that would rather hate their own government than to fight terrorism?

No, there are some Conservatives, like me.  Habeas Corpus is one of the most important parts of our legal system, it leads to innocent until proven guilty.  It was one of the reasons I voted for a moderate democrat.  I agree with part of the legislation that enemy combatants should not be tried publicly, but this suspension of habeas corpus is a violation of individual rights.\n\nHow about this scenario?  If you are associated with someone that the government merely suspects of terrorist activities, they can use the law to imprison you, until you produce evidence that indicates your associates of the activities.  It can be used as a new form of McCarthyism.  Until you produce they evidence we want, right or wrong, you can be held.  Guilty until you prove yourself innocent or prove someone else guilty.  Basically, unconstitutional.\n\nAnd some people say, Lincoln suspended habeas corpus, but that is not a good comparison.  The Civil War would have ended, sometime, but the "War on Terror" is indefinite.  They have suspended one of our rights, indefinitely.  And the reason I am against it is I am a conservative, who believes in the Constitution, unlike some Republicans.

I agree that it "Islamic Terrorism" is a misnomer since the terrorists are motivated on the basis of political considerations rather than purely religious ones. Also, you are right to point out that when Christians commit hate crimes, they are not labeled "Christian Terrorists" but instead are looked upon as a single freak outlaw or as political activists. I also agree that Americans are largely ignorant of the beliefs and practices of the average Muslim and are therefore very easily convinced that Islam is a violent religion when the truth is that all the monotheistic religions are capable of inciting violence in their believers. However, I think you are wrong to blame this on the so-called brain-washing of "Jews who have tremendous hold over the mdeia - electronic and print - in the U.S." This comment shows that you are just as prone to believe in stereotypes, thereby misinterpreting and overstating the influence of Jews, as Americans, or for that matter, the people of any other nation are.\n\nA closed-minded xenophobe is a closed-minded xenophobe, and politically-motivated paranoia is politically-motivated paranoia. Your efforts to shift the blame wrongly placed on the Muslims to the Jews is transparent and unfair. No nation, no religion, no people has a monopoly on innocence and goodness, nor on evil and self-serving hypocrisy, for that matter.

Friend, this is the same all over the western world.  In the UK we have recently had a trial of a far right-wing politician who was prosecuted for calling Islam a "wicked and vicious religion."  He was found not guilty of any crime, so now the Blair government wants to change the law.\n\nNow, I totally disagree with his view about Islam, but like Voltaire I would defend to the death his right to say it.  For me better to get all the arguments out in the open and debate them.  If something is wrong or even evil, light is the best disinfectant.\n\nBy trying to bury debate and free speech today, all the politicians are doing is storing up revolution for tomorrow.

Absolutely! What produces terrorism abroad produces ultra-right wing conservative here. Don't believe me? Look at James Dobson, one of the most vile human beings on the planet.
