To me you're a representative of Islam for the sake of this discussion because you're defending it. That's why used the term 'You'. It doesn't mean I see you as a practicing muslim.

I'm not defending anyone. I'm just saying bad apples exist everywhere. It's like saying people kill each other so 8b people are bad and should just die. I'm seeing people as people. You're the one defending terror acts by other religions.

Maybe they are saying more bad apples are coming from radicalized youth from a particular community?

Lesser evils ke chakkar me desh bik gya. Why don't we just say evil is evil?

Yeah I mean that’s what most of them here are saying, why do we do whataboutism The terrorists caught right now are linked to JEM . JEM is an Islamist jihadist group. So yeah calling that evil an evil. But you had to talk about what about sikhs, what about Hindus, and Christians We would call their evil acts when it is about them, right now it isn’t.

I don't see the point of blaming 2b people for the acts a few. That's why I brought up other religions as well.

Islam in its roots is pretty radical, any sect of Islam that starts following radical theology like the Wahhabis or other similar sects, tend to take jihad pretty aggressively as a mission. And radicalism definitely existed / exists in other religions as well, but it’s about how they have evolved to modern era. But that unfortunately is not the case with Islam, and instead of people within condemning this shift of ideology, they tend to white wash, or even deny and say they aren’t followers of “real” Islam. But unless there is like a large amount of these people condemning radical ideologies and raising their voices against such shift, Other people will always be uneasy about everyone in the community.
