Terrorism, which means using fear to reach political goals, doesn’t necessarily entail violence, Matusitz said. A small percentage of Muslims are terrorists, he said, and most of their victims are fellow Muslims.
“Some religions have a specific agenda they need to fulfill,” Matusitz said, without naming specific faiths. “If they can’t fulfill their agenda in a peaceful way, they will use violent means.”


When Bernier asked him for examples of U.S. terrorists, Matusitz named the Ku Klux Klan, the Aryan Nations and Timothy McVeigh.
