That is rather silly, don't you think? How could you even begin to try to make a point that most terrorists are not Muslim? I will humor you since you apparently believe you have some sort of point here. Obviously a terrorist is a person that performs acts of terrorism.
Start with common definitions for terrorism:
American Heritage Dictionary
n. The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons.
Wordnet© 2005 Princeton University
n. The calculated use of violence (or threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious or ideological in nature; this is done through intimidation or coercion or instilling fear.
How many Non-Muslim terrorists can you name? 2, 3? Probably not as many as were in on the 9/11 plot, much less those involved the bombings in Bali, Spain, England...the Cole, The Marine barracks in Lebanon, several US Embassies, the first World Trade Center Bombing, the Russian school murders...etc. Even without adding in the dozens of daily suicide bombings in Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel, Palestine etc.
