Of course you don't have to be middle eastern to be a terrorist. Timothy McVeigh was Irish-American and he murdered all those people in Oklahoma. So, for sure you don't have to be arab. We've had terrorists of all different kinds of races. However, there's a lot of terrorists groups in the arab world, and they hate us Americans due to the fact we support Israel, and gave Israel back to the Jewish People many years ago. Anybody who isn't of their religion is considered an infidel and must be killed. That's the way these arab extremists think.
