I agree although there is a big difference. People like Tim McVeigh (who was essentially a white supremist type who was against the Government) are very few in numbers as compared to muslim extremists who have huge numbers. Count the number of incidents of the Tim types VS the number of incidents of Muslim extremists.
I think it is safe to say that most all recent terrorist activity has been with crazy radical muslims.
McVeigh was a secular anti-government ideologue. The myth that religion drove him is just that - a myth. He rejected altogether his Catholic upbringing. And frankly, we can offload that claim entirely when we accept the premise that political Islam has nothing to do with religion either. But it does scare people, including the media, into referencing all things Islamic under religion, then reasoning that we should not offend. Look at the cowering media. Do they behave like this when reporting about tyrannical activities coming from North Korea or China or Russia?
Just an observation.
