Selective evil
The Sun of the U.K. runs a list of the evil perpetrated by Islamic terrorists. But there are very, very curious ommissions. The thousands of Israelis killed and maimed in the name of Islam as they were riding a bus, shopping or dining are ignored; the hostage taking and deaths in a Chechen school and a Moscow theater; and the blasts on the USS Cole in Yemen.
Aha! The evil of terrorism has infected the Sun's editors as obviously they don't think these incidents were the work of Islamic extremists.
