are only muslim people become terrorist?

They are only terrorists creating havoc in the name of religion. They want the whole world to become Muslim by terrorizing us. When they killed more than 200 Australians in Bali they sent a message to Australians right away to become Muslims otherwise they will also be dead.\n\nThere are other terrorists also like the one who blew federal bldg. in Oklahoma but nobody use religion.

Right now when people hear "Muslim" they instead think "terrorist."  I know better than this, but unfortunately, you're going to get a lot of ignorant answers to this question.\n\nThe Muslims I have known have been very loving, very sincere about their religion.  They behave very kindly towards others.  I notice two other things about them:  one is they tended to be a little more superstitious than I expected.  Another is that they tended to not hang out a lot with non-Muslims.  \n\nTake care

When ppl talk about Islam, they will think about terrorism and jihad. Most of ppl r streotype. islam is good but Muslim make it worst. But not all Muslim are bad. Today, you can see how Islamic Country become the main country for some sector. Like Malaysia, UAE, Turkey etc. They didnt allow the jihad in terrorism word but jihad for develop the economy, educational etc without kill anybody.

I'm reluctant to say all Muslims are guilty. I wonder though about where their heart is. We hear talk about how moderate Muslims reject extremism, violence in the name of religion, etc. But I've never seen much from moderate Muslims when it comes to stopping extremism. How many times have you seen Muslims drag one of their own out of a mosque, by the hair of their head, for preaching hate? I have never seen it. How many times have you heard of moderate Muslims expressing outright hatred for those who would kill innocents? I have not heard it. I suspect, with absolutely no proof, that many moderate Muslims wish for their more radical brothers in Islam to win the war on terror.

No there are moslems that are peaceful law abiding folks. However there are those that are terroist also. Same with us though, I look at the shock and awe part of the war with Iraq as nothing more the terrorism.

Well, considering how secure many Americans are in their smaill-mindedness and exclusionary behaviour, I guess so. The greatest risk that an increase of Muslims presents to the USA is the risk that you might be forced to open your minds and accept Muslims as people just the same as you instead of live bombs...

uh.. no... they aren't.   Maybe the terrorists are.. but not "muslims".

The answer is YES\n\nIn the "Global War On Terror" where Terrorists are the enemy, YES Most Terrorists are Muslim. You left a quantitative loop hole "most" and therefore it must be recognized also that NOT ALL Terrorists are Muslim and conversely NOT ALL Muslims are Terrorists. But in the current world the largest portion of Terrorists that pose a threat the to the national security of most (if not all) free and sovereign nations are Muslim extremist.\n\nNow about the IRA... International Terrorists... same as Al Quida and Islamic Jihad etc... \n\nTimothy McVeigh - Domestic Terrorist - Only a threat to national security of his home nation (well... when he was alive that is) \nMAFIA, Organized Crime, etc... - No direct threat to national security - in fact - probably operate to some degree with respect for governmental authority as those criminal organizations that have been most successful have been able to "work the system" to their favor and take advantage of the laws of the land  - i.e. Al Capone would never have been able to build his empire (started by boot-legging Canadian Whiskey into The US) had the 18th Amendment never been created.

I dont think any religion widely accepted by rational people is or can be.  By definition terrorism is to instill terror in ones enemies.  Most religions I know of want us to accept our neighbors not terrorize them

no more than anyone else!..most people are capable of some of the things a small amount of Muslims have been doing!..its only because they are doing it now we are all aware of it!...

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....)

Unfortunately it seems that a lot of these terrorists are "home grown" - i.e. born in the UK of (mainly) Muslim parents.\n\nWhile our present government has created a chaotic immigration system which means we really have no clear idea how many people are coming into this country and what they intend to do when they get here, there is also a large degree of brainwashing of young Muslims going on in the mosques and faith schools which is creating a generation of terrorists within our own society. This is not helped by the government's pathetic policy of political correctness and appeasement towards various extremist Muslim preachers and leaders who seem to be able to encourage hatred against the very society that they live in without any real fear of arrest or removal from the UK.\n\nIt seems unbelievable that we grant political asylum to some of these extremists because they state that their views mean they would be subjected to brutal arrest if they were deported back to their own countries - yet we do nothing about them here except allow them to encourage terrorists (usually while they claim welfare at the same time). Limiting immigration into this country is NOT racist, selfish or isolationist - it is COMMON SENSE... something which seems to be in very short supply in and around Downing Street.\n\nUntil the government stops these people using our systems of immigration and welfare against ourselves then the potential consequences for the UK remain dire.

i do not think all muslims are terrorists, just like i don't think all christians are racist, cross-burning, biggots.\n\nthe following is a copy of an answer that i just put in a similiar question...\n\none day, a couple years ago, i was pumping my gas and the young man at the pump next to me starting talking to me. we had very good conversation for those 3 minutes. it was obvious that he was not from the area, so i asked "where are you from?" he lowered his head, hesitated, softened his voice and said "afganistan". i felt so ashamed of americans at that moment. that this young man could not even lift his head and say proudly where he was form. did he think that i was going to yell out at the top of my voice? did he think i was going to call him a terrorist? i still to this day remember that moment.\n\neven among the christian faith, there are people that take it too far. the KKK consider themselves chritians. do the rest of the christians walk with head bowed and whisper that they are christians for fear that someone will call them out as a racist biggot? no, they don't.\n\ndo not judge all by one.

ive been living in an arab country for 19 years now. neither islam nor muslims call for terrorism. they are good and helpful people. they really dont deserve being called terrorists, and they find it too offensive

Well, maybe not all muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists ARE muslims.\nBesides, if some muslims are not terrorists, they do nothing and say nothing against those that ARE terrorists. Their silence makes them accomplices

First of all, it's not all people and not all muslims and not all islam...\n\nThis is what everyone sees...\n\nMuslim and Palestinians people are the only ones who actually strap bombs on their bodies and blow up innocent people.  No other nationality or religion does that.

No not all Islamics are violent! Why does anybody feel the need to do anything? They have their own rules just like we do and just like every other country! We can't base our opinions on every Islamics because of what a handful do! We are in no way a perfect country. We have terrorist too! Remember the American Timothy Mcvey (spelling?) who bombed a building in his OWN country? Remember Waco Texas? Remember Ruby Ridge? Why do we do the things we do? When we figure out our own we may be able to figure out others!
