Why?

Because with this ridiculous Newsweek story where Americans are taking the blame for insane radical islamists killing each other, it's important to remember that this so-called "religion" is what led to these WTC deaths and more American deaths before then and since then.

However, our country is civilized and we responded like patriots. We did not riot in the streets and kill our own. We responded calmly with the necessary military action and we will continue to do so. We need a little bit more intolerance to Islam, just as we needed more intolerance to Nazism in the 1930's. A "religion" that has part of its holy text ordering our deaths is not a religion.

Well, I covered the Crown Heights riots. Then the Columbia Heights riots. And I was fortunate to escape Wilshire & Vermont in 1992 when the bricks started flying. And noticing that we have the highest murder rate among first-world nations (by far), makes me beg to differ slightly. And blowing up a daycare center on Oklahoma doesn't give me the warm and fuzzies either.

Face it. We have more than a couple violent, uncivilized folks right here on the homeland. If every nation highlighted this population as representative of our entire country, imagine how terribly bad we would look.

Every nation has it's nasty freakin a**holes.
