Firstly, it's a religion, not a race. Secondly, I do have something against muslims. Particually the ones who fly planes into buildings in the name of Allah.

fly planes illegially into buildings. There's a legal way to fly a plane into a building? ... But seriously, it concerns me -> religious zealots, of which there seems to be a high number among that religion.

well if they crashed an empty plane into a building thats about to be demolished I dont think the country would declare war, now would they?
i wont lie - it does concern me the fanaticism and devotion in that religion, however.

Next thing you know you will have Jedi Kamikazes flying planes into buildings in the name of Yoda.
Stoopid Star Wars, gets it's own religion according to the census....Next census lets have a "Simpsons Religion".
Refering to the muslims, It's all the god-damn media's fault. They pin point the Muslims and show only the extremists so that the nation, and the world, thinks that they are all insane lunatics...some are, but the majority aren't. Media is EVIL....and I want to be a Journalist.

Obviously it's true that not all muslims are zealots but I don't know if we can soley blame the media here. It does seem to be the religion with the most loony followers. Take a look at Nigeria where they went nuts killing people and rioting when the Miss World pageant was going to be there. Or the woman they were going to stone to death because she had sex with someone. The zealots in Nigeria are not just living another lifestyle, they're just evil. Wanting to kill someone for having sex is bad enough, but banning the swimsuit competition? That's completely evil!

So if a culture surpresses a woman her whole life and kills her for having any kind of freedom or doing things we do every day and take for granted, you think that's acceptable?

Well obviously they have some sort of justification........other cultures might see aspects of our life as totally unacceptable

thats a good point Dazza. But at least we don't go and suddenly kill 3000+ people because we don't like their ideals.

Killing will always be killing no matter how you justify it. So perhaps the Nazi's could justify themselves you think?

I hate killing. Kill - I hate that word. There is no justification in someone taking the life of another.

America can justify its killing of innocents.....Isreal is in the same boat..........unfortunately society as a whole is pretty stupid......the Germans where not evil people.....but wat they done was......but it seemed right to them at the time
I think if the hate and scaremonger keeps goin on America could well drop another bomb........pre-emptive is a scary word.........gives justification to any attack........as America talks of pre-emptive attack on Iraq .......why should Iraq not be think of a pre-emptive strike on America it would only be defending itself
oh well Im babling and have gone off topic.......I hope u can make sense of wat Im say.....Im not very good with words :)
