Look into MS-13. Not exactly terrorists in the classic sense of the word, but still....

Me vicious? Naw, you are just over-reacting. I am curious as to why you are so ignorant, though.

You are also saying that anyone who disagrees with you is a terrorist.

I guess we all know what that makes you, don't we?
I'm defending terrorist? Sorry to say that the only thing that I am defending is intelligence.

By your own logic one could say that you are the terrorist.

Default Muslim victims of terror

An informative link concerning the Muslim victims of terrorism:

Publications (broken link)


It is hard to describe Islam as a religion of peace when they blow up their own people on Islamic Holy days and during prayer times. They took out Anwar Sadat and Ahmed Shah Massoud. It is also disturbing that the U.N. refuses to classify the violence in Darfur as genocide.

Makes me question the motivation of some who are responding here, though.
Radical is as radical does, right? Hateful, confrontational responses means an underlying truth that cannot be denied and hit's home with the confronter.....ergo the attitude. I mean, who in their right mind defends terrorism?

The Jews, Christians and Muslims during one of their holy crusades (particularly their wars over Jerusalem), then and now.

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. No one defends terrorism, you must understand the psyche and position of whoever it is you disagree with -- you may find you don't entirely disagree. It's all relative, brother.

Then, they will, typically, say they disown those horrible people, want nothing to do with them, and do not obey, believe in, or in any way support those nasty things in the holy book. They will say the book was written quite a while ago and those things do not apply today.

People on sites who claim to be part of the Muslem religion (and I have no way of knowing that they are) seem to be trying to convince people to 'come on down, the water's fine' and when someone says it is not always all that fine, in fact it is horrible at times, they just deny, deny, deny. Which is a lie, lie, lie.

Which underscores my initial caveat that these are NOT peaceful Muslims, but trollers for idiots.

There, I said it again. In actual English. I hope you can understand that.
ok fine its still seems far fetched to me. infact i think the only people that can believe it would also be the ones targeted

I was targeted once by 'the lieing contingency' of considering magnetism as the dispersive essence for developing chemistry against shape: by a Muslim. He believes and devoutly contends that that is only the mianderings of Jewish propaganda over the existence of living species at the infancy (ha, ha, ha) evolution in the so-called Universe. My view was aboring him, and I should be targeted to review my biology textbooks on the true shape for form to function.

Look at Serbia in 1999 that was Christians doing ethnic cleansing. (That is a PC word for holocaust)
