The Twin Towers was the Muslims, almost every single airport bombing attempt this decade was the Muslims- it's just the facts. Nobody is trying to discriminate, but it's always been young Muslim males or students. At least, as I said before, AFAIK.

Not saying that ALL terrorists are Muslims, but a huge majority of the ones within the last decade have been.
