That's the key: Islamic. The sooner the civilized world realizes this the better chance we have at fighting this WOT. It ticks me off when they try to distinguish between different terror groups. They all have the same common denominator: radical Islam. Take the two two guys they caught yesterday with plans to blow up a NYC subway. Officials claim there is no known connection to Al Qaeda. So if they don't carry their AQ card in their wallets, they don't qualify as terrorists?
I think they figure that most people are too stupid to put it all together. And some indeed are. You are correct about the common denominator.
