Most Islamic fundamentalists oppose the education of girls. Malala Yousafzai as a teen ager spoke out encouraging girls to go to school. This offended some of the Taliban fundamentalist terrorist, who threatened her if she continued to speak out. When she continued, they tried to murder her. They shot her in the head, but she was airlifted for medical treatment and survived. She was the winner of the European Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought and nominated for the Nobel Prize.


Both Islamic terrorists and anti-terrorist Muslims believe that they are following the world of God. Which group is the “hijacker” can be argued either way which is why the “hijack” notion turns out not to be very useful, However, despite intense pockets and even countries where the terrorist view of Islam is in the majority, the majority of Muslims in the world reject the terrorist interpretation of Islam. The difficulty lies on supporting the anti-terrorist Muslims and fighting the Islamic Terrorists without offending the former by conflating all Muslims together.


Most Americans and Europeans and their governments feel that Muslim leaders and organizations have not done very much in terms of “drawing the line” and publicly condemning terrorism.

Many have been killed or injured in assassination attempts.


There were many who disagreed about the commitment to non violence. For example, they advocate Sharia (Islamic) fundamentalist law where a Muslim who converts to another religion is executed and adulterers are stoned to death.

Many believe that recent claims of non violent means are just tactical deceptions which are authorized as a methodology in the Koran.
