We've got 9/11 to consider, the Boston Marathon, pretty much anywhere a terrorist can kill as many people as possible for whatever their demented reasons. Good news, despite the FBI warning about religious gatherings this season, seems there are not as many terrorists all over the world that might commit a terrorist act, because there sure were lots of opportunities yet few incidents. Knock on wood...

What to make of that? I'm not sure, but maybe the threat is not enough to keep most people from living their lives as they normally would/should. We're more likely to be killed or injured in a car accident, but even still, we keep driving...
Clearly the terrorist hate runners, and office people.

Translation: kill all Muslims?

Because what I know about people and the religions they adopt at a rather early age for all the reasons they do, and how all that works among the faithful, no radical alteration is likely to happen in our lifetimes. I mean, we are trying to be real here, right?

Well we are about to find out if chanting the words "radical Islam" will change anything with Michael Flynn & KT McFarland leading NSA although I don't believe that General Mattis is in the radical Islam camp. I would really like to know their plans beyond this as to how we defeat ISIS but so far that has been closely held.

Actually, there is no such thing as a "radical" Islamic Terrorist. Islam embraces both peaceful members and murdering jihadis. This dichotomy confuses western thinkers.
Peaceful Muslims and bloodthirsty Jihadis are all part of Islam.
Nothing guarantees the former nor prevents the latter.
Both are “acceptable†to Islam.

Islam is at war with all peoples, religions, and governments.

I've heard it said and I believe it to be true, that if one had an original Holy Bible (written in the original language) of the Christian faith, it would read just like the Koran ....

Religion does not make the people. The people make the religion.

Because Obama would have to acknowledge that his people are thugs and murderers.

As Jack said, "You can't handle the truth".
Everything I said is the absolute truth, obama hates America is is on the side to the terrorists, he has proven it over and over again...
For eight years he has done everything in his power to bring America down, just look at what he has done since the election, on his way out..
Learnme is the perfect name, you do need some learnin'...

I think avoiding the term "radical islamic terrorists" actually HURTS Muslims the most. NO sane person hears the term "RADICAL islamic terrorists" will believe ALL Muslims are terrorists. The keyword here is "radical".

I personally will never think less of a fellow human being just because they are Muslim. But I sincerely believe there is something extremely wrong with Islam. Or maybe there are two types of Islam religion. I think there are two types of Muslims, 1. RADICAL islamic terrorists, 2. peace loving Muslims just like you and I.

The entire Islamic world should come together as one and decide whether denial is the approach they want to take towards criticism, or accept that there might be something wrong and work towards at least identifying the problem.

For example, do you want to say the Germans cause the holocaust, or the NAZIS? Do you want to say the Japanese bombed the Pearl harbor, or the Japanese Imperial Military? See the difference?

As a girl who actually had a relative (who looked nothing like the 'enemy') interned, I have a very different views about this subject.

People are going to judge anyway. You can't stop them from judging. Which one do you want? "hey look, those Muslims did it again." or "Those fundamentalist Radicals did it again."
