God always backed one side in wars and the way we know he backed the Christians over the Islamic Jihadi's is the rich history of miraculous victories in the face of overwhelming odds. Winning against 5-7 times your forces is not natural; it's supernatural.
“Religious terror arises from pain and loss and from impatience with a God who is slow to respond to our plight, who doesn’t answer. …The way forward is clear: kill or be killed. Kill and be rewarded in heaven. …This, in short, is where bloodbaths begin.”

The Crusades were a disaster. The crusaders lost. On your theory, God backed the Muslims.
I presume you’re aware that many Christians believe that Roman Catholicism / the RCC is an evil power of this world.
“… terrorism is aimed at non-combatants. …”

Muslims did it. So did the crusaders.
Don’t follow them.
You know who didn’t perpetrate terrorism?
Jesus and the apostles.
Follow them.
