Terrorism has no religion

WORLDPOST Muslims Are Not Terrorists: A Factual Look at Terrorism and Islam by Omar Albatour  Every  time an act of terror or shooting occurs, Muslims closely watch the news with extreme trepidation praying that the suspect is not Muslim. This is not because these terrorists are likely to be Muslim but rather because in the instances where they happen to be, we see amplified mass media coverage and extreme unjustified hatred towards Muslims.  As a Muslim, I am tired of condemning terrorist attacks being carried out by inherently violent people who hijack my religion.

I am tired of the “mentally disabled” excuse being recycled when the suspect in a terrorist attack is a Caucasian. I am tir...
