Gee, I always thought the term was “No true Muslim”. You know, no true Muslim would engage in terrorism.

I see this all the time, “…well, Germany was not really a Christian nation,” “…they weren’t really Christians” and so forth.

I have even pointed this out here many times. It’s interesting how easily we disown a person or a group when someone in our group suddenly becomes persona non grata.
