Why do Trump and the conservative pundits focus solely on "Islamic terrorism," instead of just "terrorism?"?

The S.C. church shooting was racist terrorism. The Colorado Planned-Parenthood shooting was Christian terrorism. The Sandy Hook shooting had nothing to do with any religion as far as any of us know. So why is it just Islamic terrorism that Trump and conservatives focus on?

    To visualize an enemy. It would be harder to get people on board with a general idea, rather than a specific conquest

    Because last I checked sparky, the death toll of radical islamics is far beyond any other terrorist.

    Look I know your average demonrat fck on here will disagree but that's because they're just low information sewer dwellers.

    From 9/11 to Jan. 2016, there has been more than 40,000 attempted terrorist attacks, or successfully executed terrorist attacks all around the globe.

    And that doesn't even take into consideration ISIS's weekly Youtube upload where they behead another couple dozen innocent people on the beach, or setting them on fire alive in cages, or just grabbing an AK and putting a bullet in their head as they fall into a mass grave.

    I don't give a f*ck if democrats are too fcking stupid to recognize this, it's not up to them, they exist to just live with mommy and daddy until they die and shut the fck up. Demonrats think that making noise is the same as a rebuttal.

    The simple truth is radical islam is spreading like the disease it is at a rate faster than even hitler managed to progress. Deciding that that's not the case is nothing but willful ignorance and there's nothing that can be done to help someone that stupid.

    You let me know when you want to compare and contrast a list of islamic terrorist attacks vs. old fashioned non-islamic nutjobs, I'll be more than happy to play.

    Left wing and right wing terrorism do exist. Before the 90s right wing terrorism overtook left wing terrorism as the most prolific. However, in recent years it has reverted back to left wing terrorism.

    Just look at whats going on with Black Lives Matter.

    Fact is, there is a ******* genocide by islamic extremists against Christians... so you should watch your ******* mouth.

    Divide and conquer propaganda to put Christians at odds with Muslims. By the way everything you've mentioned where scripted staged theater HOAXES with crisis actors. This even includes San Bernardo and Orlando that were blamed on Islamic terrorism. The most obvious ones been Sandy Hook, TSA/LAX, and Orlando that even people with closed minds could research and will think ok wait a minute this is bullshit.

    It's religious paranoia.

    The war is really with Al Qaeda and ISIL ... terrorism is the tactic they use.

    If we must bring religion into it, then we could say it's a war against Wahhabism.

    First of all lets get this out of the way,... Trump is NOT a Conservative, in fact he barely

    fits the description of a republican.

    Secondly, the 911 terrorist were mostly considered Arab, BECAUSE they

    had citizenships from the United Arab Emirates. Bye.
