Re: Google Search for 'Quran Verses' Spike After Terrorists Use Them To Check Who to
[h=3]This is not the first time that the Quran’s passages have been used as a litmus test to weed out non-believers.[/h]

During the 2013 Al-Qaeda linked attack at Kenya's Westgate mall, terrorists asked people to recite the Shahadah, other key passages of the Koran, the name of Mohammad’s mother, and other Quranic details.
For a generation that turns to Google for pretty much anything, a devastating incident like a terrorism attack makes it the first port of call. This was noticed in the wake of 2013 San Bernardino, California massacre, "after the media first reported that at least one of the shooters had a Muslim-sounding name", New York Times
reported. The top Google search in California, the state that witnessed the massacre with the word “Muslims” in it was “kill Muslims.” And the rest of America searched for the phrase “kill Muslims” with about the same frequency that they searched for “martini recipe,” “migraine symptoms” and “Cowboys roster.”
