Islam is indeed a driving factor in terrorism. Is it the only factor? No, but it's a significant one.
Not to mention South America, where I come from. It's also a 3rd world continent with corrupt governments, drug problems, education problems, and lots of poverty. But we don't get Catholic people over there (since it is mostly very Catholic) running around the streets constantly killing each other in the name of Jesus. To say all this nonstop bloodshed in the name of "Allah" has absolutely nothing to do with the fundamental nature/culture of Islam is just dishonest.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
