ah, Allan, how can you (or the rest of the United States, for that matter) possibly understand the nature of our enemy, Islam and its history and relationship towards Israel and the Western World when you:
Generally speaking I think the religious element becomes a bit of a smokescreen as it gets cherry picked for emotional effect/propaganda and derails a more responsible dialougue about ethics, power and economics.
That statement there is exactly why many Americans do not understand the complexity of the threat that Islam presents and why the United States has been unable to deal with it with any wisdom.
(I’m not a rabid Christian btw. I’m actually more agnostic/atheist. I do admit to having an extreme dislike of Islam, but that’s because I know what it’s about. I like silly, little things like the equality of men/women, the ability to live with other societies, the idea of not marrying 9 year olds girls, and the ability to eat Spam.).
