Well, some Democrats just made 20% of our uranium for sale (which we all know) and upped the probability of nuke terrorism. It's a wonder it hasn't already happened. And mowing down people with a truck by an Islamic crazy and not an accident this may be a first in America. Maybe there were a couple tries which were thwarted We had one or two other major vehicular intentional mass killings by our own crazies in the past.

No you can't trust an Islamic country but neither can you trust rabid dictators of any stripe. So far in world history, just speaking for America now, our worst conflicts have not been with Muslims or because of Muslims.

We used to get along fairly well with Muslims. I think it was the Israeli-Palestinian conflict where we sided with Israel but tried to mollify the Palestinians tipped the balance along with some hare-brained political decisions that, in retrospect, further exacerbated the conflict with Muslims. That wouldn't be the official explanation, however, and it may be an over-slimplistic way of looking at it.

Only time period the US has gotten along with Muslims was during most of the Cold War, when US and Muslims united in fear of Communism. Before the rise of the Soviet Union as a world power, and since the end of the Cold War, not so much.
