It has nothing to do with propaganda. It has to do with basic Christian theology, and fundamental understanding of the Scripture.

We are all sinners and equally in need of God's love and redemption. ALL our righteousness is as 'filthy rags'......even those of us who were raised in Christian countries, or are actually followers of Jesus Christ.

The difference in us is not in our own righteousness, but in God's mercy and grace. The problem is in their man-made, violent religion and in their culture and training, all of which can be changed if their hearts are changed. There are plenty of people who were raised in America who are not Christian, but have been influenced for the good because we are a country that bases its laws on God's laws. That could also be true in democracies in the Mid East.

The Muslim people are not fundamentally evil any more than we are.......that's what God has told us in His word. Those who are guilty need to be eradicated. Those who are not need to be redeemed.

The Koran specifies to be "converted to Islam or be killed" and it continues by ordering those who have been converted to carry out such killings. They live by the Koran so therefore they are pure evil and I do not love evil. Read the link and you may understand more than just the part where God orders us to "love thy neighbor".
