Are They Right Not To Trust Them?

This survey was carried out among the young, I would think that the figures would have been much higher among the more elderly.
We all know that it is only a small minority of Muslims who commit such horrendous attacks such as 'The Twin Towers' 'The London Bus and Tube Attacks', 'The Murder of Lee Rigby' and more recently 'The Kenyan Shopping Mall Terror Attack', and 'The attack carried out on the Christian church in Pakistan'.
But are these not sufficient to instil fear and mistrust?

OK folks that's got that off my chest so back to the general debate with a hopeful note.
I, like all of us have slipped into the trap of designating religious/political killers as terrorists. In fact they are not, as we learned in the IRA and "Orange-order" killings and back to the WW2 blitz. The aim of the terrorist is to terrify. But that's where these murderers fail, because they do not terrify us. They merely repel us and strengthen our resolve to defeat them. So through their methods they carry with them the seeds of their own destruction. It will take time but they are doomed.
Maybe that's what many of the young were really saying in the true survey.
