wont help, now they are martyrs and the next pair of idiots are right around the corner.
I'm not Muslim but what little I've picked up from moderate Muslims tell me it isn't a bad religion. It actually makes a lot of good points on humanity.
We also have to look at Muslim history, architecture and science. Stereotyping them as a bunch of ignorant goat herders is ridiculous.
The west claims to be civilized but I wonder who feels at greater risk, a white guy in the middle east or a black kid in Florida wearing a hoodie.
The trouble with most religions is that they are over a thousand years old and their tenets are based on the need, at the time, for the physically stronger male to be the boss. Also at that time most people were in survival mode with no time to think about liberalism. If something was different you killed it to eliminate doubt. All of these things got written into "Infallible" books written by "Infallible" men.
The power hungry radicals basically continue that dogmatic ignorance and there are a lot of frustrated uneducated people around to follow them.
I think the Muslims make a valid point in not trying to make pictures of God, Allah or whatever you choose to call the big Kahuna. (If you believe in Him, her or it) It's a way of trying to pigeon hole the deity and that makes it easy to wrongly apply human traits and limits to the critter. He, she or it is not like us.
