Islam is not blameless
Unlike other religions, Islam does not have an established hierarchy. This means that there is no firm control or authority over how its believers interpret their faith. As a result, some believers believe that terroristic actions are justifiable while others firmly believe in peace. Fanaticism is also one of the results of this lack of hierarchy.
Even if Islam cannot be directly accused of being responsible for some terrorist attacks, there is no doubt that some terrorist have been inspired by their religion. Their misinterpretation of the teachings of Islam have pushed them into terrorism. They believe that God is pushing them into doing it and they will be rewarded in the afterlife.
