Sorry, Gracie, but I strongly disagree with this statement. Terrorists come in many forms -- White Supremacists and Neo-Nazis, gangs, the IRA offshoots, and so on. It was not Muslims that tried to bomb Oklahoma City federal building or the first attack of the World Trade Cenger. Right now, Muslim extremists are the most prevalent, but certainly not the only. Bader-Meinhoff still exists. There is still a terrorist group in Japan and so on. Hate comes in many forms. Some are just more visible and vocal about that hate.
That doesn't mean we should ignore that our biggest terrorist threat today is the Muslim extremist. It does mean that we need to be vigilant against many, not just some.
