#1 Doesn't tell us much about, say, Boko Haram, or the militants coming out of European cities, sometimes third generation in those countries. Or why gays and Jews have such a hard time in, say, Amsterdam.

#2 "Why militants now symbolise Muslims?"

Militant islam is so interwoven with political islam and religious islam that it is pointless to discuss one without the other. Jihad and Sharia Law, for example, do not separate out easily from religion. I choose to use lower case "i" for islam as a kind of non-recognition of this phony religion.
