"Meeting with representatives of Turkish-American and American Muslim community in the US, President Erdoğan said: “Everywhere in the world, people belonging to different creeds commit acts of terrorism. However, only when the perpetrator is a Muslim, it is called ‘Islamic terror’ and if the terrorist is a member of another faith, the incident is treated as an ordinary crime. Have you ever heard of ‘Christian terror’, ‘Jewish terror’, ‘Buddhist terror’, or ‘atheist terror’? No you cannot. Only if the perpetrator is a Muslim, he is characterized by his religion. If not, it is not even mentioned. This attitude is not well-intentioned. On the contrary, it is part of global Islamophobia.”
