I was lucky that the school I was in, an elementary school that was Christian mind you, after the 9/11 attacks actually took time to teach us what Islam really was, looking back I didn't realise how important it truly was to learn about it that early.

People honestly know dick about Islam, I feel that most people don't even know that because of the government in Middle Eastern countries forces the schools to teach the more Fundamental kind of Islam.
Regarding the underlined, White people can also be Muslims. If we're going with the generally accepted definition of "White", that'd include Arabs, Persians, and various Central & South Asian groups (Nuristani, for example).

But, yes, of course any group can harbor terrorists.
