It is very desperate to try to call Catholics "terrorists" on par with Muslims when the war in Ireland was a civil war against a real imperialist power, to gain independence

It all in the perspective... but we can blame, and rightly so, the people that choose violence and those that let it happen.

Remember the majority were for independence not like Islam where supposedly the vast majority are against terrorism.

It seems to me that most everywhere in the world where there are Muslims there is violence in the name of Islam. Trying to excuse the followers of this religion by saying it is only a small percentage of the total population does not stop the killing.
There is a responsibility to be assumed by the peace loving followers of Mohammed to weed out the terrorists among them. As far as I can tell this is not happening as often as it should. If you only have a small number of terrorists among billions of peace loving Muslims then it should be a quick and simple process of pointing out terrorists to the authorities.
Until the murderous portion of Islam is ostracized from the religion then I think it is reasonable to hold the " FOLLOWERS" of the religion as a whole responsible. Terrorists could not survive without the support or apathy of their fellow Muslims.
Pointing out this failure to act is not condemning a religion but it is showing a lack of courage or conviction among it's followers.

*Any* ideology is always there for whomever might want it and whenever it chimes with what a given group of people are into.
I don't get why so many people absolutely, unquestioningly, take it for granted that the ideology is the root cause of what people are. Why is that so 'self-evident'?
Is it not at least possible that a given group of people a) become, say, aggressive and warlike, *then* b) pick the religion (or aspects of a religion) that make their aggression look and feel 'real' and 'righteous' to them?

The bible doesn't teach pedophilia, like the Koran teaches terrorism. And while Islam encourages terrorism, which is a fundamental part of islam everyone in the Christian West prosecutes pedophilia with extreme prejudice
Do you have any like-like comparisons to offer

Wild guesses based on pure ignorance that are wrong
Any Muslim, anywhere can be and often is "radicalized" by the teachings of the Koran alone. The stated goal of Islam is world domination through militant conquest, with terrorism being the battle tactic of choice
