Desecrating a synagoge is a most despictable act and cannot be excused.
Your comment, though, is a defamation of Islam. Look at history: for centuries on end Jews found refuge from Christian persecution in Islamic countries and were free to worship their religion.
Islamistic fanatism has nothing to do with the core religion of Islam. Or would you describe the inquisition, the religious pogroms against Jews or the genocide of American Indians as typical for the Christian religion?
Generalisation often becomes discrimination, then defamation and then persecution of people because of their religion or their race. Particularly as a German you should avoid such lines of thinking.
