        @BBCBreaking would you please stop calling them "Islamist" militants! Terrorism has no religion, stop spreading Islamophobia. SHAME!

        @waradocqz @BBCBreaking yeah, of course their actions are far away from authentic Islam. So they are better addressed as terrorist groups!

        @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld @waradocqz and it fuels the negative stereotype of Islam because it's their actions aren't denounced by more Muslims
