This is an actual question. I'm not trying to make a political/cultural point in any way, shape, or form. But shouldn't it be "Muslim terrorist" - Muslim being the description of the terrorists who practice Islam.

And to clarify, I get that Islamic means relating to Islam, but I always assumed that the differentiating factor was whether the object being described was a person or object. If that's not the differentiator, what is?

I would think their word choice would be the middle ground here.

To say Muslim would refer to the people whereas saying Islamic is referring to the ideology.
