Blind hate is a ridiculous and close minded answer to this large and complex problem.

I agree with you here. But I also think that not just individuals need to be held responsible. Muslim clerical groups around the world who fail to incite hatred for the terrorist actions executed by their people... Countries that turn the other way when terrorist activity is obviously occurring in their country... etc. There are Muslim countries that do not do this, so I don't blame every Muslim in the world, but a revolution of ideas (wither forced from outside or brought about from within) needs to occur in much of the leadership of this religion who many times also serve as leaders of nations.

Obviously there ARE contries which, if not sponsoring this directly are certainly lending it moral support.. and that's wrong.

I am just tired of being painted as horrible because I am Christian and Conservative. I am sick of the Jew's being taken to the wood shed over being Jewish also.

I think it's conservative and the height of fairness to view this terrorism problem through that lens.

The mouth breathers here are pretty quick to condemn Islam as a whole and I have even seen calls for outright (and unconstitutional) persecution. That kind of response is just as bad as the problem it's supposed to solve.

A whole bunch of FReepers should be ashamed of themselves, imho.
