No it will only embolden terrorists. Islam is a very aggressive religion. Of all of the wars/conflicts in the world, something like 95% of the at least ONE if not BOTH sides are Muslim. If you read about what people are doing to innocent women and children in places like Algeria, Sudan, Indonesia in the name of Islam(cutting the throats of whole families if they don't observe Islam as devoutly as they should, burn torture to enslaved christian children if they refuse to learn Islam, etc....)

First off, not all Islamic leaders have spoken out against it. If all had spoken out, and did not condone terrorism, there would be no place for them to turn, and there clearly is. \n\nSecondly, I know that not all Muslims are terrorists, and not all terroerists are Muslim, however the number of terrorists that are Muslim kind of outweighs the terrorists that aren't.\n\nLastly, one doesn't have to know a thing about Islam to know that the leaders who don't condem terrorism are condoning it.

Your knowledge of Islam is very limited, thus your querstion.\nHere goes:-\n\nIslam NEVER CONDONES violence of any kind.\n\nIslam’s Response to Terrorism\nAbdul Ghany Jahangeer Khan\n\nIslam means the religion of peace. A person following Islam will find that he or she is surrounded by noble teachings, the aim of which is to establish peace between man and Allah, the Creator of all; between man and man; and between man and the rest of Allah’s creation.\n\nHow does such a religion deal with the issue of terrorism? And what does the word terrorist mean? Dictionaries will define a terrorist as one who systematically uses violence and intimidation to achieve political ends – or one who controls or forces others to do something by violence, fear or threats.\n\nAll these definitions are covered by two words in the Holy Qur’an, the sacred book of Islam: Fitnah and Ikrâh.\n\nIn the Holy Qur’an, God begins to deal with the issue of terrorism by teaching Muslims never to become terrorists in the first place. Two of the very first verses of our Holy Book say: ‘Al-Fitnatu ashad-du minal qatl’ – meaning that in the sight of Allah, ‘persecution, or making people constantly fear for their lives, is much worse than killing’. And also: ‘Lâ ikrâha fid-dîn’ – ‘There shall be no compulsion in religion’, that is to say, that no one has the right to force others into complying with their demands or compelling others to follow their line of thinking.\n\nAllah Almighty warns the believers again and again that they should never abandon Him, the source of all goodness. Allah Almighty reminds us that it is those who have abandoned Him and thrown away all good, and divested themselves of every shred of human decency, that are the ones who will eventually resort to terrorizing others, forcing them into complying with their demands. The believers are repeatedly reminded that they would lose Allah Almighty’s love and His favors if they ever began to behave in that way.\n\nBut Islam does not content itself with these injunctions strongly forbidding Muslims from ever becoming terrorists. It also makes sure that the believers are made into highly moral, excellently behaved people, by inculcating those lofty human values that can turn them into people who sincerely love humankind without distinction of religion, race or social status. Islam no doubt encourages the logical and rational discussion of views with people of all creeds in a calm and dispassionate way, with the only aim that truth prevail over error and falsehood. But it also reminds us that it is error and falsehood as such that are to be hated and detested. The people who unfortunately hold on to error are never to be hated. That is why the motto of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is ‘Love for all, hatred for none.’\n\nIn Islam, an amazingly powerful emphasis is laid on developing love for mankind and on the vital importance of showing mercy and sympathy towards every creature of Allah Almighty, including human beings and animals. For indeed, love and true sympathy are the very antidote of terrorism.\n\nIt is related by ‘Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her, the talented wife of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, that some desert Arabs came to him one day and asked: ‘Do you kiss your children?’ He answered: ‘Yes.’ They said: ‘We never kiss them.’ The Prophet (sa) said:‘What can I do if your hearts have been stripped of compassion?’ He also said that Allah Almighty has no mercy for him who has no mercy for his fellow beings.\n\nThe measure of compassion shown by the Holy Prophet (sa) cannot but amaze anyone who knows how rough and violent was the society into which he had been born. Abu Qatâdah, may Allah be pleased with her, relates that the Messenger of Allah told him: ‘It happens that I stand up to lead the prayer, having in mind to lengthen it. Then I hear the cry of an infant and I shorten the pray

Not everyone believes Islam is evil.  I think there are those who have perverted the sayings of the Prophet and it is this misinterpretation of the Koran which is causing great evil and unrest in the world.

I don't not have an answer but I totally agree with your question.  I don't think that most Democrats in this country understand the true scope of Radical Islams world-wide war against non-Muslims.

That IS a good question, and it doesn't say that all Muslims are terrorists. Personally I've always been afraid to ask it. Can you imagine if Zarkawi is on Yahoo Answers and reads this? I can just hear it.\n"For Allah's, sake! What were we thinking? Read this! Some of these infidels are very clever, may their daughters marry camels. OK, from now on you go to paradise on your 6th bomb ... got that? The first 5 you only sacrifice the back-pack and whoever's standing around."

Only for the most radical and extreme elements of the Islam nations. Most rational people in that part of the world know that only bad things happen when WMD's are "in play". Being the cynic that I am, I could foresee all kinds of social and political unrest between the extremists and contemporary citizens, that is IF they stand up to the extemists....we'll see, if not, Holy Sh*t (no pun intended).

the world not going to hate specially any Muslim, the world , even u hate terrorism,which is present everywhere,we have a wrong mind set that every Muslim represent terrorism or a terrorist is representative of Islam .but unfortunately now we are habitual and always used to connect it only with Muslims.actually we know this fact very well that none community in favor of terrorism, even not any Muslim like to do all this non sense, but sure there sud be some reason behind this when we indicate to Muslims,coz every terrorist is production of our society,the question sud be like this ..that why a Muslim easily turn to terrorist action then other comunity ??\n\nit possible that Islam allow to go against and remove those elements or people,those are harmful for Islamic faith in idea of saving Islam values and Muslim followers, but some people who actually support and involve in terrorist affairs, they use those religious ,innocent and emotional people,who are mostly not well educated and follow blind faith.they support them for their own benefit and make them crazy and mad for the name of "zehad".they teach them that Islam allow to killing "kafir".in Islam "kafir means ..the guy ,who don support human values but some stupid people teach that kafir means..those r non Muslim or not follower of Islam.\n\nno need to hate any Muslim ,\neven not a terrorist coz we need to stop and change him ,\nbut yes!! terrorism is subject of hate.

I don't need to go to your link to answer that. The reason is that some Muslims will attack anything, or anyone, at anytime, for any reason.

Just lie in front of ppl, in order to protect your life from being killed. so say "islam is peaceful religion" and call all these incidents recorded against Islam as it is not real or it is not true.  and whoever do a terrorist attack under Islam say they are not real Muslims or they are jews or crusaders or even from Mars.  and when you see bad things in other countries say look thanks God for Islam, Islam is the best!!  hide your ugly text and tell ppl more lies and lies. and the most common lie that Islam is growing despite Islam prohibit ppl from converting from it and kill them and easily allow others to embrace Islam.  many Islamic countries prevent teaching of other religions or restrict them hardly. while Muslims can teach abroad...good one?

Muslim people are strapping bombs to their bodies and blowing up innocent children and adults.  I saw footage of people dancing in the streets whe news of 9/11 was made public.  And the hijackers on the planes that day were all Muslims, at least the words they said were in praise of Allah. \nYou are not telling the truth.

Not all Muslims are terrorists. People think that way because they are ignorant. Hate is soooo much easier than learning tolerance.\n\nA good friend of mine met and married a Muslim man. She converted to Islam. He treats her like gold. His family is warm and friendly. They are happy, peace loving people.\nBut they are scared. This country seems to think all Muslim people are like the ones on the news.\n\nIt is very distressing to see all of the negative comments here about Muslims here. Not all of us are like that though.\n \nThank you for posting this.  Someone had to!\nPeace.

what kind of question is this? you could start a conflict with this, a war even. Islams are completely misunderstood. Do not judge based on your ignorance. And to answer the guy upstairs, Islam isn't the root of terrorism. Everyone is entitled to be a terrorist.

Did you know that the 19 hijackers were called the 19 knights, heroes by some of those good imams! It is because these kind of double messages we see and hear all the time.  Of course the majority of the Muslims are peaceful, but the problem is that not too many of those good peaceful Muslims speak out against these kind of actions, until it is too late.\n\nHave you heard of a Muslims who called upon all Muslims to kill at least one American? not that Muslims will do it, I am sure they will not, but it gives you an idea how some people use religion, or misinterpret it to get their goals done! don't you think so!\n\nAs for the Not so good Muslims, the 19 hijackers.  I learned that if a person took on jihad, no matter how many times they sinned in the past, they are all forgiven, and these men would go directly to heaven, and as an extra reward, they will be able to bring with them 4 other people, even if those people did not do the jihad! is that true?!  \n\n\nJohn Reed wrote: " It is fortunate that the good people out number the bad people, but it is also unfortunate that the very few bad people would be able to cause more harm than the good others can do!"

I don't think so.Terrorism based on religion used to be a lot worse in the past(think of what was happening in Europe in Medeaval times).It's just that we feel more secure now from other things and that's why we think this kind of terrorism is increasing.
