John 16:2: Is this a verse about terrorism today?

Lord, I started to look at cross-references on Matthew 24, a chapter on Bible prophecy. [In fact, check out the previous journal entries today on verses about Bible Prophecy.]

And, look at the one I just found:

John 16:2 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
2 They will ban you from the synagogues. In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering service to God.

Today is the day where arrests have been made after three states were impacted by terror over the weekend (New Jersey, Minnesota, and New York).

John 16:2, in the second half, from "in fact" on, this describes what the terrorist Jihadists think. They think they are killing all infidels in the name of Allah, their god. Furthermore, they think they will be rewarded for doing so.

Did this verse talk about today's age? 

Did Jesus Christ, in John 16:2, refer to the Islamic terrorists of today?

I am going to study this verse now. 

Here is a place to read several commentaries on this verse:

It's hard fining more information on this subject. Ugh.

I will continue to try to dive into this verse.
