Wrong. You think Bush has made the muslims angrier? How the heck to do get them angrier when they are already maxed out? You do know they first
attacked us in 1993 under bill clinton yes?
Its their religion, they are told to attack and kill non-muslims or convert them. Do all of them follow this, no, but a good amount of them believe in
it. We are told that there are only about 3-4% that would attack us. Well, thats about 7-9 million people when you do the math.
I don't agree with your assertion. It has been documented that many Muslims who had never though of joining the jihad became motivated to take up
arms when we started bombing Iraq...and torturing prisoners in Abu Gharib..and in Gitmo..and other secret prisons.
I am sure the Quaran does not tell them to kill non muslims. You can see that
here. In fact, the Quaran is very tolerent of Jews and Christians since they
are Abrahamic faiths, like Islam.
There are extremists in almost every religion including Christianity. In Christian history, there have been wars fought and justified by obscure
pasages in the Bible (ie the Crusades).
In my opinion, these people's faith is only being used as a way to manipulate them to obtain a political goal. To me, terrorism is a tactic. It is
not an ideology. Which is why Bin Laden wasn't willing to strap a bomb to his back. Just as GW & Co invoked the Christian faith to gain support of
his followers. They helped perpetuate the 'holy war', manipulating Christians to believe that what he was doing was "god's will".
And it worked, because there are folks who still think all Muslims are religiously obligated to kill all non Muslim Americans. Trust me, there are
enough of them in the world that if that statement were true, it would have already been done.
THIS IS WHAT SHOULD BE OF HIM.........
