i remember one time five years ago in a forum i attended, our defence secretary told us that Muslims are terrorist. i was gone ballistic after he said that to his speech. who in the right mind would say that almost half the population of the Philippines are terrorist? it's purely showing that even the government is informing the people falsely to justify their actions on why they should attack people in mindanao. it's just that i think that government should address the growing problems in the mindanao area not miss informing people that they are terrorist. and i think same thing happened to all Muslims in the world they are being named as terrorist. and every time there are bombing the first suspected people are always muslims. i remember one time that they impression a Muslim because they said he was a terrorist and a high raking official of a local al qaeda group, one year later it was proven that i was a mistaken identity and was ordered immediate release... but the sad part is the damage has already been done, they impression a guy for a year for a crime he never committed. do you believe that Muslims are terrorist? why?

Mo, i don't agree. I am not Muslim and i have no religion also, I have no idea to get any religion in future. There are 1.2 billion Muslim people in this world and most of them love peace. I have many Muslim friends and one my ex- is a Muslim too. They are nice, friendly and kind. I think there are bad and good guys everywhere, so that we should not think Muslim are terrorist.

No i dont believe muslims are terrorist. Terrorist has no religion and its very sad part of media showing muslim in bad image in media. If any one found guilty then he is criminal or terrorist but don't exploit muslim in bad image . Islam is second largest followers and we cant blame entire community for such acts and its shame who want to bad to the people.

Not all Muslim people are terrorist... But on the news we here how they strap bombs to them selves to kill innocent people.... You here certain muslim leaders talk about how they are going to destroy Israel...How they Hate the Jewish people.... Last month or so watching the news in Israel...The Muslims come out of their place of worship and start fighting, throughing rocks, and fire bombs at people...and police...why....what kind of hate are they being taught in their.... Why do they kill in the name of their God.... This headline appeared in the paper yesterday..... US imam calls on Muslims in US to wage jihad....... Why would a spiritual leader call for Muslims to kill non-believers if they are not a hate filled religion.....Why would anyone want their people to kill anyone, at anytime.

I'm a survivor of 9/11 escaping from the World Trade just in time before it fell to the ground. I definitely do not believe all muslims are terrorist. I believe the majority are not. They believe in peace for all and don't believe in violence. I believe that people who believe that all muslims are terrorist are naive and scared due to 9/11 and other attacks caused by terrorists around the world.

Islam preaches genuine peace and advises people to follow the real ritual of mutual respect, tolerance, cooperation and sympathy.It is a matter of great regret that some Muslims create violence in the name of Islam. Islam itself is never responsible for that.Some people believe, it is also a western propaganda to malignant the Islam. God fearing Muslims never allow terrorism

I think it is difficult to answer this. If I answer that terrorist is not a Muslim, in fact most of terrorists are Muslim, but I also do not agree that all Muslim is terrorist. I also confuse with the condition, even I regret about the case.

Hello luntian_grace! i am glad to response your discussion. What did you said? moeslem are terrorist? it's ridiculous and it make my heart hurt, because i am a moeslem. I tell you that we aren't terrorist and we love peace. And about Osama bin Laden or Al Qaeda, they just lost and they were wrong in understanding the Qur'an, the moeslem holly book
