Yes it is "muslims" who convert to "radical muslims" and it's "christians" who convert to "radical christians" (e.g. white supremacist groups, pro-life terrorists, etc.). So that's not any different from any other religion.Honestly, it’s the Muslims that are responsible for their cohesive unit characterization. It is “Muslims” that convert to “radical Muslims”, not Catholics or Protestants... and Muslims don’t appear to want to openly and aggressively condemn the radical behavior either.
As for muslims not wanting to openly and aggressively condemn the radical behavior, you're wrong. Tulc provided some great links to prove you're wrong about that, and I can also point to the fact that Syria's president Assad does nothing but fight against ISIS and radical islamist groups like Al Nusra, Al Qaeda, and several others and Syria's population overwhelmingly supports President Assad. Meanwhile, the USA is arming and funding those terrorist groups to fight against Assad.
So, you're not only wrong about muslims being anti-extremist, you are also ignoring the fact that the USA is taking the side of the terrorists and spending OUR tax dollars to fund and support radical islam. But you're blaming the majority of muslims like Assad and the Syrians??? Doesn't make sense.
My point about Saudi is the same as the point about Syria and how the US simultaneously funds and supports the most extreme and radical muslim terrorists while brainwashing Westerners through western media propaganda. How else can people blame islam as a whole while at the same time supporting America's funding of the most radical elements in Islam and fighting against the majority of muslims who are actually peaceful?You do make a good point about Saudi Arabia though.
