Yes, I think it´ correct to say both "Islamic terrorism" and "Kurdish terrorism", and it does not mean that muslims and kurds are terrorists. Gramatically they are adjectives and they just describe the act. They do not give any further conclusions.
Meltem you said it yourself that when people see two words put together over and over, they start to believe it. I don´t see how that harmonises with what you are saying above.

It´s a disrespectful generalization to say that terrorism in Turkey is carried out by kurds. It´s carried out by the organization which may not be named, not kurds as a people. 
I agree with gencturk too. It is an organization carrying out these atrocities. When the IRA were committing their terrorist acts it was "the IRA" not "the Irish" who were referred to in the news. Turkey is not the only nation who has problems with groups fighting for autonomy. And as far as terrorism in the name of Islam is concerned, it´s a similar situation . . . not a nation, not a faith but an organization carrying out most of the terrorist acts eg. Al-Qaeda.
