I wasn't arguing the cause of terrorism in your country (if this was aimed at my comments, they could easily be aimed at Typh's), but Typhoid's oversimplification use of the generic "brown people", as if there is no other reason than racism why people make assumptions about the backgrounds of most terrorists.
Most terrorism in Northern Ireland isn't by Muslims either, but that does not change world wide realities, especially in the US and much of continental Europe.
