Maybe, but that is more for us than for them. They all think they are terribly brave and looking through their lens, I am sure they are.
For myself, I think they are second rate twits. Foolish enough to be motivated by manipulated outrage. Dumb enough to accept a division of human beings between the umma and the infidel. Resentful of the success of other civilisations but not thoughtful enough to figure that the reason why is precisely to do with the power of uncertainty, the evolution of ideas and scepticism towards the dogmas of medieval belief. Humiliated by the lack of accomplishment of Islam over multiple centuries and only capable of expressing their frustration through violence. A bit thick. And arrogant with it. Can't persuade anyone so they kill.
If the problem was only in the West, you'd maybe say it has something to do with us. But Muslim terrorism is in these places:
"India and the Sudan and Algeria and New York and Pakistan and Israel and Russia and Chechnya and the Philippines and Indonesia and Nigeria and England and Thailand and Spain and Egypt and Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia and Turkey and Morocco and Yemen and France and Uzbekistan and Gaza and Tunisia and Kosovo and Bosnia and Mauritania and Kenya and Eritrea and Syria and Somalia and Kuwait and Ethiopia and Jordan and United Arab Emirates and Tanzania and Belgium and Denmark and East Timor and Qatar and Maryland and Tajikistan and the Netherlands and Afghanistan and Chad and Canada and China and Nepal and the Maldives and Argentina and Mali and Angola and the Ukraine and Uganda and Germany and Lebanon and Iran and Kazakhstan and Sweden and Azerbaijan and Iraq and Scotland and Macedonia and Bulgaria and Cameroon and Djibouti and Australia and...
...and pretty much wherever Islam is taken seriously:
"O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who
are near to you, and let them find harshness in you,
and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty"
Qur'an, Sura 9:123"
