Well you have brought up really good point here......
Terrorists all have their own principals and views based on that they wage war on people....But if we see all the around the world we can see nearly 99% of terrorism is coming in the name of Islam...Boko Haram, TTP, Afghan Taliban, ISIS, LeT, etc etc etc....Even there is a Islamic terrorist group in Philippines which is fighting guerrilla for an Islamic state there...
Well sláinte to you. Most people tend to give apologetic response - the type who already harbour latent prejudice. As regards present ( this millenium ) I would say forget about 99% the figure probably is even higher with 99.99% of terrorist acts in the world carried out by Muslims. Just today I heard some disgusting despicable creatures murdered 45 Shia Muslim's belonging to the Agha Khan's Ismaili community.
I can't very well defend this or any other act of savagery. Do I think is this generic to Islam? Possibly but if so no more than the other two Abrahamic religions. That said right now the followers of Mohammed ( PBUP) are taking all the gold medals on this front.
However we have to nuanced enough to understand that there is political issues that are the driving force behind these where Islam has been mobilized. Take the case of suicide bombers. The prototype could be seen in the Kamikaze waves in Imperial Japan. This was then refined by the LTTE in Sri Lanka in 1980s onwards as a instrument of war against civilian population. Post 9/11 it seems to most unfortunatley for me to have infected our loonie bins in Pakistan.
