the killer, entered his office of the police headquarters, mortally wounding two police officers who were having lunch, then trying to enter another office where three others were on a break but could not go past the locked door. He then attacked another employee, who died of her injuries, and wounded another before he was stopped by a 24-year-old intern, who shot him.

Give the person who brought the jihadi down a promotion and a medal.

There is no such thing as “radical” islam. There is only islam.

Another set of funerals and blah-blah words for the dead for Macron. Their deaths and blood is on his head.

There is only Islam. You either follow the Koran or you don’t. The goal is world domination.

Islamist and Pit Bulls. I want neither in my house.I know that some of them are not violent but I don’t trust any of them.

[I want the USA back]

That’s the point! *slam tells them to kill humans! Luckily most m*slims don’t know what the koooran says and have no interest in killing.

During the late 1970s into the 1980s when Carter practically installed the Ayatollah Khomeini in Iran, and there were many kidnappings of infidels by Moslems in the Middle East, the US media used a very accurate description of the perpetrators: Islamic fundamentalists.

The terms Islamic fundamentalists and Islamic fundamentalism were commonly used for several years until at some point that became politically incorrect and things evolved into the PCness we have now.

But Islamic fundamentalism was a very accurate term as the terrorists and so-called extremists simply believe the fundamental teachings of Islam.

until they are.

I guess I understand the point you are trying to make about viewing the term “islamic fundamentalist” as useful but I actually realize there is a disadvantage to it communicating the heart of islam.

After 9/11 I went back and read recent books (but pre 9/11) about islam and its failures in the modern era. It turns out that we are at a weak understanding if we equate the problems of islam to “islamic fundamentalism.”

The problem is that we think of Christian Fundamentalists and equate that with the problem areas of islam which could not be more wrong.

Christian Fundamentalists are a small percentage of Christians. The problem portions of Islam are not a minority — they are the majority and the mainstream aspects of the last 150 years of islam.

Moderate islam is not a majority — it is instead a persecuted minority that is violently hammered by mainstream islam. The killing of moderate apostate islamists in actually supported in islamic courts.

When the term Islamic fundamentalism was used it did tie the terrorists it described to the Islamic religion.

These days, there is a concerted effort in the media to separate the terrorists from Islam. They are now just radicals and extremists and some have even used the nonsensical term “radical extremism” to describe terrorism. And Allahu Akbar means “God is Great”.

I don’t think Christian fundamentalism has ever been a commonly used term. The media has long relied on “the Christian Right” to try and demonize Christians.

I should have added the statement made by some prominent former Moslems: “There may be moderate Moslems, but there is no moderate Islam”.

And I’m sure there are moderate Moslems who do not approve of terrorism, and most of those probably would say incorrectly the Islam does not sanction terrorism. So, a term like “Islamic fundamentalism” that does tie terrorism and terrorists to Islam is useful and was probably the best we could ever have hoped for to be used by the media. And now that’s been gone for thirty or so years.

If you are a Muslim the best interpretation of what Allah wants you to do, comes from following the life and examples set by Muhammad, and Muhammad's interpretation of Islam, which is; subjugate ,convert or kill anyone on the planet that does not believe there is only one God, and Muhammad is his messenger.-Tom

Recommended reading for anyone interested in the history of violence in Islam...Islam IS and always has been violence in its essence...

All muzzies move toward radicalization over time. It’s in the nature of the religion owing to its brutal internecine rivalries and opposing groups’ liberal use of the “No True Scotsman” logical fallacy (only remodeled as “No Real Muslim”). The only possibly way to keep your head above water, religion-wise, is to get progressively more radical. Some just die before they reach the radicalization finishing line.
