I don't buy it. A suicide bombing that kills dozens of completely innocent people in a public place? Yeah. At least 90% chance radical islamists are behind it. And that's being generous.
I my defense (thou I was wrong)
Would I believe uber nationalists would copy Islamic states tactics to
1. Sow anti immigrant hatred
2. Because Islamic state has stolen there tactics from other groups
3. Because they have lost by legitimate means and now seek to win by violence
Well, they didn't.
There is a reason why when something like this happens, everyone automatically knows it's radical islam. Because the vast majority of the time, it is. Political correctness be damned in my opinion. No one here is saying Muslims are at fault. We are specifically talking about radical, extremist Muslims who think Allah wants them to kill everyone who is not them.

For the same reason you'd bring up Catholic pedophiles in a discussion of Islamic terrorism, I suppose.
My thoughts exactly.
And for the record, the difference between an Islamic terrorist and a Catholic pedophile is that the terrorist is religiously motivated to commit those crimes. The priest who rapes kids is not motivated by his religion to do so.
"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."
