Nice generalization. I like how automatically lump me in with the others by association. Because a few idiots are Muslim, and I am Muslim, therefore I am the one that is supposed to "fix" something, according to you.
Furthemore, just because I am born in Iraq doesn't mean if I ever "pack it", it means I go to IRaq. I live in America, and I'm an American (well..mostly

). You going to tell someone of Irish decent the same thing when crap starts to flare up over there? They will be against what is going on, people in IReland will be for and against whats going on. But if it continues, then clearly they aren't demonstrating an ability to try to solve the situation therefore we should invade and clean it up for them, right? AM I learning right?
Do I say its the any Irish's fault for the IRA, and they should clean it up? Because over the years they make "progress" and then it stalls and takes steps backwards.
You know this reminds me of a Comedian named Dat Phan.
" They like to typcast you in Hollywood, its so funny. I saw these guy and they go like "Oh you are Asian, you do comedy thats wonderful, thats great, we love it we love it. We love Orientals, we love Jackie Chan, we love Jet Li
[pause]
Okay, I love Jackie Chan, and i love Jet li...but what the hell do I have to do with them?
You know, I don't go up to Latinos and go "Oh you aer Mexican? I love Menudo, Menudo is great!
I don't go up to Black people and go, "oh you are black? I love denzel washington, he is a black guy too, he is great...eddie murphy, black guy...they are all great!"
I don't go up to White people and say "Oh you are white? I love Micheal Jackson

"
The only difference is there is "no love" but rather hate.
Get it through your mind. I wouldn't hesitate to say 95-99% of Muslims do not "hate the west" or whatever you WANT to beleive in order to justify your "crusade" on them. Even go to places like Saudi Arabia and you'll notice a LOT of western things, and places like Victoria's Secret, which is supposed to represent the "epitomy of the great satan", always busy! They do no "hate" us. Iraq doesn't "hate" us. At the same time I doubt they want to be exactly like us.
But when we invade over a FALSE PREMISE(please tell me Condor, why did we invade Iraq? I thought it was supposed to be WMD, but you talk as if we invade for religious reasons. Or are you not sure?) that is going to piss people off. Now factor in that the security situation is horrible. Remember the first year of occupation in Iraq? Christmas was celebrated like crazy (obviously the secular version of Santa) and people bought into it like crazy! This year I haven't heard anything...you know why? BECAUSE THERE IS NO SECURITY.
Now add in other little things, such as Nationalism, and you'll begin to see why they want us the hell out there. Does that mean they hate "western" civilization? NO. Does that mean they think we are doing a horrible job? YES (as well as many Americans also agree)
What I find interesting though is how you almost make it seem we went to Iraq to "kill the Muslim", rather than WMD. That "they", whoever "they" are, attacked us, so in retaliation we just go get two "Muslim" Countries (though I agree with Afghanistan, although I find it ironic who the current president is...) because we are the righteous Christians that were attacked.
Could you dress the Muslims in different clothes, say one color for those who love us and hate the terrorist and another color for the ones who hate and want to kill us so we can tell them apart? I
Oh how wonderful! You either LOVE AMERICA or you WANT TO KILL AMERICA!
Eh...then again I can understand your position considering your comments on Muslims in the past.
