I don't ask that you abstain from using pejorative words for bloody-handed fanatics. I only ask you not to call them "fundamentalists." It tends to give thousands of innocent, peaceful fundamentalists (i.e. normal religious folk like your practicing Jewish and Christian neighbors--- and others --- ) a bad name.
Well, when 'whatever you call them' are collectively promoting a cause which is dangerous to Constitutional society or detrimental to the religious traditions they claim to be preserving, -- it's hard to find a non-pejorative term for them, imo.

I'm not insisting. I merely posted a link to what I considered a clarification of the issue.

We aren't discussing normal 'fundamentalists' here. -- 'Radicals' differ from normal people. - Any term we use will sound pejorative to someone.
-- For instance, I happen to be a fundamentalist on our US Constitution.
If someone finds that stance 'radical', - tough.
