I am aware of at least one verse in both writings that could be interpreted as 'terroristic'. There are none too subtle differences, however, in each book's teachings on what you might term as a 'moral warfare'. A handful of civilizations are named by the Bible in the OT as insufferable, and are to be utterly obliterated, but in general there are certain expectations of how to carry out warfare. Sort of an ancient Geneva Convention. In contrast, Islam teaches that once a people are conquored full scale genocide can take place specifically to motivate conversion.

Verses 1-5.

Note that warfare is not to be entered into frivolously, and that it is definitely allowed to have agreements with unbelievers and to honor those agreements. But barring specific extenuating circumstances, there is really nothing to stand between the follower of Islam and religiously motivated genocide. Such behavior is specifically forbidden in the Old Testament, and becomes more or less moot by the time Christ comes around. There are some very real ways in which Christianity is the seed of secularism, what with teachings such as the famous, "render unto Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."
