If a terrorist group calls themselves Muslims defending God then they 
are "Muslim Terrorists." If they claim to be Christians defending God 
then they are "Christian Terrorists." If they are against the 
government you could call them "Anti-federal government terrorists." 
They might also be Christians but that's not their main thrust. 
Similarly you wouldn't call bin Laden's group "Humas-Eating Terrorists" 
because that's not their main ideology.
