>9/11 attacks....the bombing of the Marine barracks in 1983....the WTC bombing....Boko Haram and the mass slaughters....suicide bombings in Nigeria, Egypt, Pakistan, Somalia....executions in Iraq and Libya.....executions in many Syrian villages.....sectarian bombers in Lebanon...and now the attacks in Paris.....all claiming innocent lives. (And that's just a list I created off the top of my head without going to any official source, which would yield a much longer list)

Errr... the common denominator is that people were killed. And if you're not willing to dig deeper into the events than finding a common denominator (like you're implying religion) you're never able to understand the underlying causes and effectively do something about it. And if we don't start trying to understand, we'll create another disaster like in Iraq and Syria.
