All terrorists fundamentally see themselves as altruists: incontestably believing that they are serving a “good” cause designed to achieve a greater good for a wider constituency—whether real or imagined—which the terrorist and his organization or cell purport to represent. Indeed, it is precisely this sense of self-righteous commitment and self-sacrifice that that draws people into terrorist groups. It all helps them justify the violence they commit. It gives them collective meaning. It gives them cumulative power. The terrorist virtually always sees himself as a reluctant warrior: cast perpetually on the defensive and forced to take up arms to protect himself and his community. They see themselves as driven by desperation——and lacking any viable alternative—to violence against a repressive state, a predatory rival ethnic or nationalist group, or an unresponsive international order. -

These same issues exist within their own countries as well-Iraq, Iran, Egypt, North Africa etc. Israel is not the cause for all of these problems, though many blame Israel, These issues were in existence long before Israel came into existence.

These are your peaceful Muslims? The Christian majority is now exacting their revenge. The world would be a better place if all religions were banned.

People will find something else to fight about.

Yet I do not see Mormons, Jehovahs Witnesses, Episcopalians, Jews, Sevent Day Adventists, Protestants, or Born Again Christians killing any non-beleivers, just to name a few. Only Islam seems to promote the killing of non-believers or "Infidels".

According to this data, there were more Jewish acts of terrorism within the United States than Islamic (7% vs 6%). These radical Jews committed acts of terrorism in the name of their religion. These were not terrorists who happened to be Jews; rather, they were extremist Jews who committed acts of terrorism based on their religious passions, just like Al-Qaeda and company.

(The chart is misleading in several ways. For example, it labels “Extreme Left Wing Groups” and “Communists”, but not “Extreme Right Wing Groups” or “Fascists”. It should have either discarded all partisan labels, or included labels for both ends of the spectrum. In addition, “Latinos” is misleading, as Loonwatch is actually referring to Puerto Rican separatist groups, Cuban exile groups and the like. However, as shown below, many of the basic concepts are correct.)

U.S. News and World Report noted in February of this year:

Of the more than 300 American deaths from political violence and mass shootings since 9/11, only 33 have come at the hands of Muslim-Americans, according to the Triangle Center on Terrorism and Homeland Security. The Muslim-American suspects or perpetrators in these or other attempted attacks fit no demographic profile—only 51 of more than 200 are of Arabic ethnicity. In 2012, all but one of the nine Muslim-American terrorism plots uncovered were halted in early stages. That one, an attempted bombing of a Social Security office in Arizona, caused no casualties.

September 11, the African embassies, the Cole, the marine barracks in Lebanon, suicide bombing of US embassy in Lebanon in '83. Those are just a few of the hundreds or thousands of suicide or attempted suicide bombings carried out by extremist Muslims.

Anonymous wrote:Muslima, your quoted source may be just a tad unreliable. I notice that same source also states that "evidence is now conclusive: two Ukrainian fighter jets did shoot down the Malaysian airliner.". Not sure how reliable the site you cite may be.

According to this study, in 2012 Islamic terrorists were responsible for the majority of terrorist acts worldwide, sadly often targeting other Muslims.
