`  == Disturbing trend to whitewash history == I have noticed that some contributors to this article seem to be desperate to wash over the parallels between Islam and Islamist terrorism. You need not look further than the term ``Islamist terrorism`` itself, which is improper grammar in English. I believe that the term is preferred to ``Islamic terrorism`` because the latter seems, in their minds, to connote that terrorism is sanctioned in the religion. I personally despise this kind of thinking because it assumes that the reader is a moron who cannot discover the truth. I have seen this kind of handling of controversial subjects in other articles. I have even seen attempts to delete articles of that type from Wikipedia. I should probably note here that I am a liberal with no agenda here other than to comment. I just hate seeing this kind of desperate attempt to conceal the truth. Deal with the subject head-on and do not shy away from the harsh reality. -  `
