Well, it looks there are only two groups, the others and the islamic community. Sad, that the islamic community is unwilling to join the others, even if just for some superficial show.

Since you insist that they be carved out with special privilege, and they are not of the 'others', aren't jihadists part of the 'islamic community as a whole'? Of course their values could be spun as different, but it seems you're laying the responsibility of community behavior at the foot of just one group. Why are they doing such a poor job of it, or are they?
