Good points..

Islamic terrorism is a fairly new concept to most western countries. They will need time to understand it. At least this forum is a new start.

You're right, there are fundamentalists in every religion but these are usually isolated cases, the problem with Islamic extremists is that they are global.

Whenever a terrorist act is carried out by muslims you will always find talking about terrorists act by a christian, jew, hindu or sikh, no matter how remote they are.
