None of this is really surprising at all, it reflects past polls. I really don't hold out any hope that any of this lunacy will decline, regardless of our actions in Iraq, and I don't think there's any answer. Fundamental Islam is a cancer, and it's very pervasive through the religion.
I wish we had invested a trillion in figuring out alternate energies, then let the lunatics drink their oil and eat their sand.
There is nothing new in this. The Islamic viewpoint always encourages an 'us versus them' attitude. It basically stems from the Quranic teaching to distrust non believers. Even if Muhammed himself awoke from the dead and tried to convince them of otherwise, they would not believe him because it would not fit within their worldview.
The problem also stems from another cause, the falliability of rationality when confronting Islam. They believe in propoganda and are taught never to question it.
Heh, the "us versus them" attitude is certainly not confined to Muslims. I hear it every day from a rather large number of Americans. We're trying to promote democracy and peace within a large Muslim country in the Middle East while making it clear that a lot of us think they are all a bunch of comrade terrorists. Not exactly a winning combination if you ask me.
Typical of liberal western aplogists with a narcissistic guilt trip who dont understand history their main goal or the sick mentality.
The religon is incompatible with Democracy, peace, secularism, human equality, etc.. people fail to see that cause of the lies muslim leaders tell the media, but the real goal is to dominate and take over, thats why they kill people who leave Islam, cause they know all about thier BS.
Don't believe me? Here are two clips from Walid Shoebat and Zak Anani both former terrorists telling just how it is.

Yeah, I prefer not to get my information on the religious beliefs of over a billion people from psychopaths. Call me a liberal western apologist with a narcissistic guilt trip, but I've got to believe there is a better solution than going to war with every Muslim on earth. Holy wars usually don't turn out too well.
You can't be this oblivious to the world around you. The war is already on! Remember 911? Saudi Arabia? WTC 3x? etc etc etc..."Oh" you might say "that's just because of American Imperialism" Ok fine Then how do you explain what's going on in Russia, France, Germany, Sweden, Sudan, Indonesia, India and about 100 other countries many of whom dispise USA and don't support us? That has'nt helped them one bit.
Wake up Neville, war is on your door step you either fight, get assimilated or die.
And no I don't mean fight by invading any of these countries - invasion of Iraq and tarbaby that insued was a horredous mistake and actually made things worse - but combating will take a very long response I know you're not interested in. You're only intrest is the alter of PC to give you warm and fuzzies.
You know, you're pretty insulting for a guy I've had to explain this concept to several times already...
I remember 9/11...and I certainly am not part of the group that thinks it was just because of American Imperialism. However, I ALSO remember that 9/11 was perpetrated by a fairly small group of men claiming Islam as their religion. Do I want to hunt down the people in their group and groups like them? Of course. Does that mean I'm incapable of seeing the difference between doing that and waging war against every single Muslim on the planet? Of course not.
One of the most important factors in winning a war, any war, is good intelligence. And part of that intelligence is knowing who you are fighting. Muslims are not a homogeneous social group any more than any other social group, acting as if every Muslim was a supporter of the 9/11 terrorists is not an effective way to fight a war against the people that are truly terrorists any more than we should have invaded every country in the far east during WWII because they were all a bunch of Asians, and so were the Japanese. You're right, we ARE at war, and we're never going to win if we don't know just who our enemies are. Waging a wild, failing war against a widely varied group of over a billion seems like a poor way to root out a relativly small number of fanatics among them.
My interest in doing this doesn't spring from any sense of PC warm and fuzzy feelings, far from it. My interest in seperating the vast majority of Muslims from the Osama bin Ladens comes from a knowledge that this will be how we'll win the war on terrorism. You call me oblivious, and that's fine, but in my experience it's important to understand that not everything is some simple black and white situation you can slap on a bumper sticker.
