I always think "who cares?" when people go into the no true scotsman mentality regarding Islam. It doesn't matter if these people are "true Muslims" or not, they think they are and they call themselves Muslim. That's enough to say that these horrific things are linked to Islamic culture, even if it is fringe.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
