O.K., so they claim to be Muslim, but that is only one aspect of their character.
Why not "men", "Africans" (more specifically, "Algerians") or "terrorists"?
If they are male, African (Algerian), Muslim terrorists, any of those would be equally true...
beacuse that is their key identifying characteristic , i am truly sorry that i can not put a beautiful twist on that truth, but they are muslims, they attacked beacuse of their religion, plain and simple.

I dont think calling them 'muslims' is something that is anyones fault. Call it racist, or anything you like, but its hard to say 'terrorists, algerians, africans, men who wear turbans' etc when trying to name them in a 'right' way. Its one thing they have in common.
As he said, we are not sure they are all african since they have recently joined up with the middle earstern segment. ok they are almost all male but there had to be female accomplises at one time and your term muslim terrorist is none the less as bad as mine, at least my term separates muslim extremisim element from the main muslim culture.

Once fanboyism infects you it impares all your judgement.
It's like being drunk, you lack common sense and everyone laughs at you.
