At the risk of starting a flame war, I point out the nutcases who bomb abortion clinics.
There do exist Christian extremists, but in much smaller numbers than is claimed, Jack Chick, anyone? It's a game no one wins.

Ok, Christian Extremists have killed dozens? And we are suppose to be more worried about dozen killed then 10s of thousands according to this Rabbi?

Most of these extremists are part of the Christian Identity Movement. There is a lot of good information on the theology of CIM available on the web. But some highlights of their beliefs are: 1. Belief that white Europeans and Americans are the true descendants of the tribes of Israel. 2. That those who call themselves Jews are actually descendants of Cain or the result of Eve mating with the serpent (satan) I assume they mean the devil took human form. 3. That the laws and proscriptions of the OT must be followed.
The followers of CIM are usually. Anti-Semitic, White Supremacists ( though some believe that other races should simply live separate from whites and do not endorse violence against them.) They think the American government is an agent of worldwide Zionists and refer to it as ZOG. Zionist Occupied Government. The crimes committed by CIM members include the shooting of radio host Alan Berg. However many CIM followers are not violent and do not endorse the violence of others. In some instances they have been victims of over zealous actions of the government agencies who think their very faith is a danger. Randy Weaver is a good example of this.
