Somehow we must learn the differences between different sections and parts of the Arab world. This is good advice, but unfortunately many will always stereotype Muslims and put them into one box. I call them the "nuke them all" crowd.
BTW...Is this Amit the one Steven Speilberg recently lampooned in "Munich"?

Somehow we must learn the differences between different sections and parts of the Arab world.And just what are the differences? Push any Arab Muslim and pretty soon they start screaming it's all the JEWS fault!

but unfortunately many will always stereotype Muslims Stereotypes usually get started, and ultimately confirmed, because there is an element (or more) of truth to it.
To say that all muslims are bloodthirsty savages, would probably not be true. But rephrase it slightly and say most muslims are bloodthirsty savages, and you are knocking on the door of truth.

the "nuke em all" crowd.
A valid point, but in a world full of uncertainty it is better to nuke too many than too few.
If that were our message the Muslims might spend a little more time keeping an eye on the wackos among them.
