Why are there so many more Islamic terrorist incidents then from any other religion?
There is a terrorist act committed by a Muslim on a daily bases as this informative website shows http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/ The tolerance at all cost brigade are bound to regurgitate that there are terrorists from all sorts of religion, this may be true but these are rare incidence not daily occurrences. I cant think of any other religion that brainwashes children that their destiny is to be a suicide bomber as shown here http://youtube.com/watch?v=6WHdWgES-Uw http://www.memritv.org/clip/en/1468.htm (same video different link) This is not a few nut cases but state government supported TV entertainment, extremism of this kind is supported by many Islamic states and is not rare. It is thus clear to anyone who is not desperate to tolerate Islam that it is not a peaceful religion as the Muslims continually assert

- QURAN QUOTES The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land....(Quran; Surah 5:33) ...Take not the Jews and Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who takes them for friends is one of them. Lo! Allah guids not these wrongdoing people. (Quran Surah 5:51) And let not those who disbelieve suppose that they can overcome. Lo! they cannot escape. Make ready for them all you can by armed force...(Quran; Surah 8:59-60a) ...slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive, and besiege them, and prepare to ambush them. But if they repent and establish [Islamic] worship...their way is free. Lo! Allah is forgiving and Merciful. (Quran; Surah 9:5) God Bless You.
- Well, you ever notice a rat won't bite until you pick him up. bout the same thing.
- Thier Qur'an tells them people who aren't Islamic will burn in hell, yada yada. I guess they figure killing them is better then converting them. Eh.
- They've got a lot of atrocities to commit to catch up with the Christians' track record. They're keeping up with the Jones's.
- The radical Muslims are just the flavor-of-the-millennium. Christians held that title for the previous one...just pick up a history book. Read about the Inquisition, the Crusades, the witch hunts, the Templars, etc.
- Because that region is several hundred years behind the rest of the world. It's easy to brainwash them and make them do terrible acts in the name of religion. They could as easy use the bible for this.
- islam is not evil and the extreamists are not using the true religion of islam. they have a warped view because they got brainwashed. before the extreamists took over they didnt do crap like this.
- Because everybody else is using planes and tanks instead.
- People that take the crap that John W. put up literally are whats wrong with the world.
- I wonder if it's because, as far as I know, NO other religion has the equivalent concept of 'jihad'? Great post, though; the extreme racist material produced in Islamic countries is horrendous. It incites hatred against jews, gays, christians; really nasty stuff. Much of it is a direct copy of Nazi propoganda. And at the same time, the worldwide Muslim community goes beserk over a lousy cartoon. Hypocrisy is the word that comes to mind! I'm sure there are many, many moderate Muslims - but I just wish they'd speak up a bit louder so that they are heard! EDIT TO AISH - nice try, blaming it all on Israel. But if that was even remotely true, then why do Islamic terrorists attack nations that have NOTHING to do with Israel?
- because the criminals religion is only mentioned when a Muslim does it- you never hear the media say "A Christian man raped a woman" or "Christian America has killed 1.5 million Iraqis"- and media sheep, such as yourself, fall for it
- I think that there may be political and economic reasons in the somewhere. :)
- Historic coincidence. If you rewind to 1985 the primary source of religious motivated terrorism was Catholicism and Protestants. Now it's Islam but that's not amazing since 90% of the Middle East is on fire while Northern Ireland has cooled down quite a bit. That said. In neither case is the true source of the terror the religion. It's politics.
- And the Christian Bible is sooo inclusive isn't it? I seem to remember from when I was force fed the bible I was told I would suffer for eternity in hell if I don't follow the word of God. Causing fear is a common technique used by the religious (of all creeds) story tellers to enforce their thoughts. Also let's not forget about the Irish (Chrisitans) who have been bombing each other for the last 50 years at least...
- ...Islam... the "rants" of a false prophet who couldn't read or write... a pedophile... a worshiper of the "moon" god of Arabia... a descendant of Ishmael, an illegitimate child of a slave woman (Hagar) who abandon the promise of God(YHVH) that was given to Abraham and the children of the Hebrew Nations. ("they" are angry, paranoid religious "left-outs" who are lost in an 8th century cult).
- wellllll...obviously u ppl that hav misconceptions of islam need to get ur facts right...it aint an oppressive or brainwashing religion, no where in the Islam is it permissable to kill innocent people or do suicide bombings. if u want to fight, then fight in the battle field. it clearly states in the Quran Do no kill innocnet people, the old aged or women. only kill in the battle field even then do not harm the trees. some scholars say it is permisable to do a suicide bombing only in the battle field, even then there are restrictions and bouderies (i stress the word SOME scholars, as not all agree). it is a shame that suicide bombings happen but islam does not favour it if u have the intention of killing innocent people outside the battle field. i repeat islam does not favour it. btw did u know that there were no suicide bombings in Iraq until the American troops came. anddd...even islamaphobists hav to admit that Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in usa and UK edit to paperback writer... did i blame the israil's or the jews???? nope i dnt think soooo...n for those of u think that the Quran says kill every none muslim u c you are wrong. someone stated a verse from the quran saying (cant memba who. "...slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive, and besiege them, and prepare to ambush them. But if they repent and establish [Islamic] worship...their way is free. Lo! Allah is forgiving and Merciful. (Quran; Surah 9:5) " if u read the verses in context of wat is happening u will find the truth. u hav cleverly picked out this specific verse in the Quran to make it sound like muslims hate other religions. this verse is referring to fighting in the battle field where it is said to "slay the idolaters wherever you find them" IN THE BATTLE FIELD not innocents that are not in the battle field, if your in a battle your natural instinct is to fight your aponent no matter if they are jews christian, sikhs, hindus, im pretty sure thats wat you do in a fightttt !!!...u c again another misconception, thats y u shud read the the verses in full context. it further goes on to say after the battle has finished and the non muslims declair defeat then escort them to their houses, just incase they are hurt, take them leaving all the grudges behind. now how is that unfair ??? wud u escort ur "enemy" to their house after a battle?? this is y Islam is a religion of peace. ohhh n something else....paper back asked " why do Islamic terrorists attack nations that have NOTHING to do with Israel?" i cud ask the same thing about America, there is NO evidence wat so ever showing that muslims did the September 11th attack, these are all HYPOTHESIS !! and assumptions. so taking this assumptions that OSAMA BINLADIN was involved in the september 11th attack American government hav been bombing and killing innocents in iraq. wud u attack a country on assumptions??? when there is no clear evidence to show that it was done by muslims !!! the day u find evidence that is proper proof cum back n hav a "dialogue" so in my opinion GEORGE.W.BUSH is the biggest terrorist of all, he's the one killin innocents over oil and causing conflict over one hypothesis. brraaappppppppp :D
- dear, ur showing children of Palestine.. do u know who made them full of so much hatred? u think it`s Islam or Hamas? ur media presents u the reaction as if it`s the main action,so u feel the need to support ur governments in whatever crimes they commit in the name of "war on terror". watch this and c 4ur self what Israel`s been doing for 60 yrs, and then blame Hamas children for fighting it. http://youtube.com/watch?v=VKQqItZu4Is&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZqbDiN2uYcQ&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=QpUC45vugdY&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=bFnM8NKiFso&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=Mkq1Z1Iw7wo http://youtube.com/watch?v=jlpdK1Ts7zk&feature=related _______________________________________________ John W: there is something called Quran Tafsir that clarify 2 u why and when this or that verse was revealed. and if u go back 2 it, u`ll find that most war verses were revealed 4 certain events 2 allow self defence. watch "The Message" movie 4 Antony Queen to know the story behind these verses. Islam only allows fighting disbelievers who fight the believers 1st(self defence).& if some muslims don`t follow Islam or know their religion well, it`s their problem not Islam`s. so,instead of accusing a divine religion of being violent,plz try 2 educate ur self more about it b4 u quote anything from it,while u don`t know what`s the story behind it.
- HELLO firstly i would like to make it clear what terrorism means terrorism :Acts of murder and destruction deliberately directed against civilians or military in non-military situations. www.jafi.org.il/education/hasbara/glossary.html terrorism:the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, esp. for political purposes. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/terrorism it is apparant that the worst acts of terror are not comited by the muslims but by the Isreali government. This is because of the illegal wall they are constructing around the Gaza strip. the wall is stopping inocent poeple from palastine from living their daily lives. it is very similar to the berlin wall.
- Partly because of people like you. As you sow so shall you reap.
- I can only guess there is no controlling authority over Islam - and so no one will step in and say the obvious - that Islam does not hold these views. It is only the radical fundamentalists (who pay attention only to themselves - recognising themselves as self appointed authorities) that program suicide bombers - simply because 'they' can. Even recognising their fellow muslims as fair game too, because they are not true muslims... You could say it is very much like lighting a fire, and no one there to react and put it out. The governments of these lands are reluctant to step in - because they will then be seen as the bad guy - because then the people will see someone to get angry with .. stepping in on their terrority (their ideas and beliefs, etc). This happens with Christianity as well - of course violence and murder is generally not involved - the same kind of absence of controlling authoritiy, etc to limit insiduous groups/sects/etc developing.. Where you have a religion - saying in effect - that enemies of their religion are fair game, and you even get a free entry ticket into heaven, if you kill and murder these enemies for your religion - then make it so... Christianity in it's hey day - wiped out cultures and civilisations it felt were the actions of the devil - you could say, now it's the muslims hey day...
- Only about 18-20% of Muslims are Arabs. The largest proportion of Muslims are in Southeast Asia (Thailand, the Philipines etc) The rest are American European, and other countries. So, you may want to look at the society in which they live, and the fact that many of them have it out for the American government, because we have gone into their countries and used them for their natural resources, raping their society. You don't see any Philipino Muslims blowing themselves up do you...and there are more of them. Until recently the largest terrorist organization was the KKK, that call themselves Christians, which Chritians would say No they don't represent true Christianity. AHH HAAA, and the taliban does not represent Islam!!!!!!!!!!!!

- The wholesale devastation of economies, political systems, cultures, and expropriation of natural resources by the super powers of the world are never reported as such and are euphemistically called freeing these places for democracy. Shame on your tunnel vision, or is that irreversible blindness?
- Islam is without doubt the best religion but the media is in the hands of the westerners who are afraid of Islam. The media is continuously broadcasting and printing information against Islam. They either provide misinformation about Islam, misquote Islam or project a point out of proportion, if any. When any bomb blasts take place anywhere, the first people to be accused without proof are invariably the Muslims. This appears as headlines in the news. Later, when they find that non-Muslims were responsible, it appears as an insignificant news’ item.
