ALL religions have a history of mass murder in their name, stop with the assholish focus in Muslims in this area. How many Talibanis have bible verses on THEIR weapons? (I know, only the ones who have American made weapons)

Do you think the Crusades were day trips to the "Holy Land?" The Spanish Inquisitions a catechism class? Burning people as witches and demons - these are examples of a religion you think better (or at least, less bloodthirsty) than another?

dont represent the majority of muslims, but the situation is a bit more complex than them wanting everyone to convert or die. many of them are frustruated at their governments and foreign governments. they are a product of western imperialism.however the actions of western powers dont justify what those extremists are doing, and in order to justify themselves they use religion. they ignore alot of rules in islam.also, there are also other extremists of different religions who use religion to justify themselves.

i mean these countries you mentioned cant solve their own political corruption, how can they stop the fundamentalists? btw the saudi government is the definition of extremist. the best way to deal with them is to mind our own business and stop invading other countries.

Where does that come from? If there were millions of people wanting to attack, there would BE milions of people attacking!

But there aren't.

You've let the fearmongers convince you the threat is (quite literally, this time) millions of times greater than it is.

Baptists want people to be baptists. Mormons want people to be mormons. Jehovah's witnesses want people to be jehovah's witnesses. Muslims want people to be muslims. So frickin' what?

I have some advice that I heard once that maybe will hold some meaning for you...

Just say "no"...
