TY - JOUR TI - WHY MUSLIMS BECOME INSTRUMENTS OF TERROR? AB - The Thesis states Global Terrorism, is a global project that has no direct place or time is an interestingapproach. Although the reason of terrorism has been come down to difference between civilizationsand religions; that is not the case. Another reason which is argued is that Muslims are unable tointegrate into Western societies. However this is not unique to Muslims, it is also a problem for nonMuslim immigrants. Another problem is whether Islam is compatible with democracy or not. Most ofthe Islamic countries have despotic and oppressive regimes which are economically, politically andsocially unstable. However this has nothing to do with Islam. Hundreds years of colonization did notlet democratic values and institutions to develop in these countries. Lack of non-governmentalorganizations in Islamic world; caused these countries to become either a secular despotic or an Islamicoppressive regime. Both situations create an environment for radical groups to exist. To eradicateterrorism, one has to look for its political and economical reasons. The despotic regimes in Islamiccountries have to be removed and some Western countries should change their mentality while dealingwith terrorism. Although Muslims were blamed for being terrorists; they are the ones who get moredamage from terrorism. Muslims have gained nothing from terrorist attacks. Who gets benefit from it?It’s not important who gets benefit from it because it can change depending on time and place.
