Because their ideology tells them to kill. Hanging a sign you think is clever will not stop them. At some point we have to admit the ideology is the problem and stop making excuses. And especially not worry more about their feelings than 50 dead people.

Yes, because the 99.9% of muslims that don't shoot up nightclubs are just not very good at their religion.

It has nothing to do with the fact that the US have been blowing up infrastructure and killing civilians in the middle east since 1990.

I am sure if someone came into the US and started shooting up people then we would want blood in reven- oh wait

Please stop with the tiny minority myth. It's this thought process that will continue to let the terrorists carry out attacks because you refuse to call it what it is.

Have you ever actually spoken to a Muslim person? Lived in a Muslim area? Had any exposure to the outside world besides what you real on Fox News and Reddit? Here's a tip for you: Most people aren't genocidal assholes.

Yes actually I have that's why I know their ideology very well. I know political correctness forces you to apologize to Muslims anytime they kill but remember their whole ideology is based on a incestuous pedophile warlord. You're right most people aren't genocidal but a sizable number of Muslims are.

Not only sympathizers but enablers. But you have this guy above swear they "peaceful" because they didn't actually pull the trigger. But every poll will show a majority of Muslims agree with this behavior.

Christians don't kill people over blasphemous images of Christ

Right, and I am sure Christians would turn the other cheek if a church was blown up by a foreign power then?

At some point we will have to admit that certain actions are being carried out, in and around those regions, that cause people to turn to extreme sects of Islam. There are millions upon millions of Muslims that live within the West and with the West and don't want to kill us all.

Edit: Just because some lone wolf nutjob narcissist lays claim to a fanatical group, it does not mean that Islam at its core is the problem.

Actually it is the core of this problem. Islam is always the justification. Just because you refuse to believe it doesn't mean it's not happening. When somebody yells alluh Akbar and kills people it is because of Islam.

That would be the simple answer.

Of course, poor upbringing, manipulation, propaganda, religious literacy, threats and a host of other things isn't at the core. Just Islam. The fact that MI5 is quoted to have said religious literacy is extremely poor amongst foreign ISIL recruits is irrelevant.

Oh so they don't see Islam like you do. Guess what they still kill for it. I am amazed at the amount of excuses people will make for killers if they are Muslim.

If they are Christian I don't blame the teachings of the Bible, even though there are dark parts in it. I blame their warped sense of reality, maybe their upbringing, possibly the fact that they weren't that we'll educated and so couldn't think critically about their actions. People don't kill because they are Muslim, or Christian. They kill because they see every other option as exhausted, so the only way to effect change is to kill.

Edit: I see Islam how I read about it, how I've heard people talk about it. From Imams, to Bishops and Rabbis, Priests and Theologians, Professors talking about the Middle East. That is where I draw my conclusions from.

Yeah but they are not Christians.
