Does this include "the Muslims" in Turkey or "the Muslims" in Tunisia, or "the Muslims" in Afganistan who celebrated the fall of the taliban in Afghanistan, "the Muslims" who are protesting the rule of Mullahs (and risking their lives in the process in Iran), "the Muslims who are Kurds fighting Iraqi rule? By embracing the indiscriminate collective guilt theory, you are also embracing the theory which has done the most harm in the twentieth century.
Much of modern Islam is screwed up. Trying to reverse this process will never be accomplished, however, by feel good bashing of every single Muslim. Enjoy yourself while you again. Because the left will soon (and already is) using the same simplistic collective guilt theory to attack all religion.
BTW, do you also believe "the Catholics" are all pedophiles?

Good points. We (advocates of free and ordered civic society) have many allies in the Muslim World. The precept to "know your enemy" cuts both ways.

That should have been your first post. Now, you have made a point.
That said, Islam is a violent, backward cult founded by a murderer and child molester.

BTW, do you also believe "the Catholics" are all pedophiles? Contrary to what you heard in the queer media, there were very few cases of children being molested. You just had a few chicken hawks going after 15-18 years olds, who don't qualify as children in my book. That's sodomy, not pedophilia.
You have a point about the Turks though, our greatest ally in the Middle East.
