No, it's a human problem. People are more likely to kill people of their own demographic. That's a problem all over the world.

So then we absolutely agree, Islam needs reform and it starts with the scholars and the doctrine.
When radicalized parents raise their children at a very young age to hate the west and those who don't follow their strict and twisted view of Islam, it's a threat that will never go away. There will always be young radicalized Islamists taking the place of a father or mother who will kill in the name of Islam. There will be posters that will claim your bashing a religion, but ignore the basic FACT it's the teachings of Mohammed that incite believers to become radicalized. It's a cancer that feeds upon itself.
Blaming America is fine, we certainly have a hand in the messbut it wasn't the American government who killed this critic for speaking out against Islam. Regardless it's a sad situation all around and yes there is a lot of nuance.
we always hear that the issues with Islam are cultural that it has nothing to do with the perfect teachings of Muhammad if this is even partially true

Then what do you call those who kill in the name of Islam for speaking out against Islam?
