blanket statements have no place in dialogue. the squeaky wheel as they say gets the grease, so the violent muslim gets the story, while those who wish to live and let live get ignored, or painted as being part of the problem, not part of the solution.
i assure you, fostering hate does nothing to solve the problem-and imo the seed of this thread is planted in hate and fear, and ignorance.

I dont hate Muslims , I hate what the radicals do to people their own and others . They control the situation , if the peace loving one's had enough gumption or nerve they would stand up , write letters to the world , make a statement on tv to everyone that would listen that this is not what their faith is about . Yet they stand by and let their brothers and sisters with hate in their heart do the talking , why dont the leaders of these countries who are Muslim , if they dont condone the violence the followers of their faith stand up and say something , make it stop , stop supporting them with money and arms. I am not ignorant , I went to school with a Muslim girl , I have neighbors that are Ethiopian and Muslim all very nice people who dont seem to care that Im not Muslim . I dont hate anyone , but Im not so blind that to see a pattern of hate that is fostered from the time some of these people are born , Dateline did a great piece on children in Palistine that are tought in school to hate and are tought how to build bambs that they can strap to themselves so they can kill people and this is something that thru the Muslim faith is considered honorable. So I guess when the peace loving kind hearted Muslims stand up for what they believe in then people might start to believe that Islam is not a violent faith. Until then the perception is greater to think that Muslims are violent and treat their women and daughters like trash , that they dont care about their fellow man nor themselves.
