(24,692 posts)Terrorism is terrorism no matter what you call it; whether it is committed by the Taliban, al-Qaeda, ISIS, or Boko Haram, it is all the same. Islamic terrorism pursued one goal regardless of which organization is responsible: global domination by Islam.
Strategies vary. Techniques are different. One groups methods for achieving the goals may be in conflict with those of another, but they all spring from the same root with the same milestone to accomplish; making Islam the dominant religion in the world.
No amount of political correctness, refusing to call terrorism what it actually is, turning a blind eye to reality, failing to condemn acts of mass slaughter, lying to protect the victims of Islamophobia or any other means to sugarcoat the obvious will alter the fact that the United States under the leadership of Barack Obama is in far greater danger because of him than we have been at any time in our recent past.

Radical Islam is evil, just like radical Christianity and radical Zionism. Under different conditions and times one can be worse than the other. No one seriously believes that the vast, vast majority of Muslims, Christians or Jews are terrorists or killers.
As an example, Germans and Japanese who grew up after WWI were taught by evil governments and in tough economic environments that their country and leader were to be followed religiously. They assimilated values of pride in their race/ethnicity and hatred for Jews, Chinese and many others. Germans and Japanese did many evil things during the era that followed.
Today - no one would say that Germans and Japanese are inherently evil people. Why? Because they never were. Their actions in the past just who how well hatred can be inculcated in people by conditions and evil leaders.
