Terrorists are full of shit.

103. You are missing the point entirely.

There are many versions of Islam. Billions of people worldwide choose to follow versions that don't include putting women in cages and setting fire to them because they don't accept the idea that they should be sex slaves.

For that matter, billions of Muslims worldwide don't require that their women walk around looking like potato sacks with eyes.

What makes THESE people who like to behead four year olds choose THIS particular form of Islam that encourages them to behead four year olds?

Yes, they believe they are Muslims. Yes, they believe they are the only Muslims that count.

But they chose the very specific interpretation of Islam that allows them to put those women in those cages, kill those children, throw gay people off cliffs, in short that gives them the green light to fully express the mentally deformed sick fucks that they are, in the company of other mentally deformed sick fucks.

They went looking for the interpretation that allowed them to do these things and they found it. If there was another cult of another religion that allowed them to do these things, they would be equally devout about that.

No one is defending this iteration of Islam, or saying that the perpetrators are not doing it in the name of Islam.
