Well, the Muslim extremists certainly have quite a factory of this, that is definitely going way over the other "members of every faction of every sect of every religious group in the world, and to people of no religion at all."
There's no factory. There's just angry people attacking other people for their own reasons. Sure, the angry Muslims get a lot of media coverage and their attacks are frightening, but I doubt they're killing more people each year than the men who go on rampages when their wives and girlfriends try to end a relationship.
And you can doubt the sun rises in the east.
I jumped into this conversation when people were trying to assert that it was the guy's religion that caused him to kill. I think you and Loren are ignoring another possibility, one that is strongly hinted at in the OP article:
The Guardian said:Israeli security services said he had “significant personal and family problems, including those regarding family violence” and that his wife had fled to Jordan several weeks ago.
It doesn't take faith in Allah to push a guy like that over the edge.
We are not saying it takes Allah to push him over the edge. The recruiters generally don't create the failure, they channel it. Without them it would be much less likely that he would attack strangers.
There is also the issue that suicide is shameful in their culture, except when it's part of a suicide attack. A suicide attack provides a socially acceptable route to suicide, thus converting simple suicides into attacks.
