Are these two Islamic terrorists? Or is he a converted black American? Are all converted black Americans international terrorists?

But you're not simply downplaying the idea that he is a terrorist, you are downplaying the fact that he is at all Muslim, and a devout one, according to what's being reported. Face it, there is enough worldwide evidence to give considerable weight to Islamic anti-American hatred as motivation for this guy's actions.

Sure he's a criminal and he's wacked too. A person who can so coldly and methodically kill so many has got to be. But the fact that he is Muslim cannot be ignored because it certainly adds to the picture in a BIG way. It's part of the profile, whether you like it or not.

And technically, while he may not be an international one, he IS a terrorist. He led a 3 week terror campaign that shut down schools, affected local business revenue, caused major traffic snafus and caused thousands of people to change the way they live their every day lives out of FEAR. Sounds like terrorism to me.
