I understand your larger point and the larger view of “terrorism” you seem to be taking.
Really though my point is modern/civilized Muslim folk by definition wouldn’t roll a car bomb up on a crowded mosque where the Imam was preaching jihad or throw a knapsack full of explosives on a commuter train because, say, they didn’t like the in power Islamic government’s refusal to lift Shira Law or accept re-approachmanet with the West.
The point being the nature of the “fight” doesn’t lend itself to moderns taking up arms against jihadis
