Muslims vs. terrorists

Venn diagram to the rescue!

This chart presents a very interesting perspective on Muslims vs. terrorists who happen to be Muslim. As the quote goes, if you were attacked by Muslim terrorists and you hate Muslims, you are focusing on the wrong word.

Thanks to Kyle for bringing this graphic to my attention.

For what it's worth, my feelings about Muslims follow from the following experiences. I lived in Turkey for a year, and made friends with many Muslims. I read the Koran, observed Ramadan, and even purchased a prayer rug--though I have never used it for its intended purpose. I deployed to Kosovo to protect Muslims. I was in the Pentagon on 9/11 when terrorists attacked. When I deployed to Iraq, I was pretty clear on the difference between Muslims and terrorists.
