You do understand that there's a difference between criticizing beliefs and hating people simply because of what a few dozen radicals did, don't you?
Neither the Muslim culture nor the Qur'an command that you run passenger plains into buildings or blow yourself up in a crowded plaza.
To hold an entire nation of people who for the most part want nothing to do with this responsible is pure ignorance.
To deny them their basic rights as human beings, to invade their country and murder innocent civilians, to torture innocent men until they lie and tell you what you want just for the slightest hope you will let them rot away in a cell.
This is hate and should not be tolerated let alone encouraged.

Nearly 20,000 Islamic terrorist attacks have been committed since 11 September 2001.
There have been very, very few Christian terrorists. Even the likes of Breivik and McVeigh couldn't be called "Christian" terrorists. And Northern Ireland wasn't a religious conflict either, but a national one.
Maybe because we declared war on them?
Do you not expect a nation to respond hostilely against an invading nation?
I wonder, why does no one keep track of the amount of unfounded American attacks on innocent Muslim towns.
Why do we not take count of the innocent people we kill?
In my opinion "terrorists attacks" stopped being terrorist attacks when we declared war and counted a farmer defending his children from us as a terrorist attack.
You might want to recheck your history as even with my very pitiful knowledge of it I know that Christians have along rich history of terror.
They very often killed those who would not convert and went on righteous crusades and holy wars in the name of god.
