My posts #3 and # 11 will tell you that I want terrorists "rounded up and gotten rid of" and "wiped out".

As for radicals in other religions, they tend to act alone or in smaller groups. And yes, they do kill; Christians, Jews, Hindus. They are included. Doing a little research will show you.

Islamic fundamentalists are included in and are the supporters of, the 5%.

Acting alone or in smaller groups hardly qualifies as sponsorship by the religion. Sure there are handfuls of radicals in every quarter. But in Islam, there are a LOT more than mere handfuls, and in addition, their violence is fully supported by their religious institutions. You cannot find a Christian, Jewish, or Hindu equivalent large enough to imply that a significant percentage of the adherents of these religions support violence against non-adherents, the way you can with regards to Islam.

Is there even one Christian or Jewish or Hindu preacher who tells his congregation to "kill the infidels"? For Islam, this is standard boilerplate.
