You have mentioned nexalites and LTTE as terrorist organisations and simultaneously raised question why I have not mentioned those. I want to clarify that they are militant movements with political goal which can be curbed with policy and police but Islamic terrorism has its root in its theology. When every Islamic terrorist boast as good follower of his prophet and holy book how much difficult to believe as they are wrong muslims, when not a ulema or top cleric till today has not denied existence of Ayats in Quran which command muslims to kill non-believers. If these Ayats have inspired millions of Muslims worldwide since 1600 years to indulge in mass murdwer what is guarantee that other Muslims will not follow this teaching .

I am agree with you some Indian Muslims are loyal to motherland but are they not Muslims who are blowing temples, railway stations, bus stations, shopping complexes and even they claim to be more pious and right Muslims. In this situation it is obvious for non-Muslims to divide Muslim community between those who presently are terrorists and other those who are going to become terrorists tomorrow.
