Lorne - I cannot understand why you say the following:

Have you now changed your mind and agree that the islam religion is the problem and the cause for the coming war?

Those two quotes you have pasted are not contradictory. In one, I am saying that "it was not the religion of Islam, and not even Muslims in general that attacked WTC. It was a terrorist organization. And their reason for attacking it was NOT their religion, but their aggravation with US foreign policies as it affected them. They attacked the US and not another Christian country, and I believe there is a reason for that".

Then I say "I am afraid of the potential effects of a real war of religion, because I know just how mad fanatical Islam can be and the extents to which they can go for their beliefs".

What is your point? Do you think there is something strange in saying 9/11 was not the religion Islam attacking the Christian religion (see absence of attacks in other Christian countries) and saying that I know how mad the fanatical Muslims can be?

I asked you a few weeks ago if you would tell us what you think is the reason that muslim terrorists attacked the USA.

I am sorry to keep you waiting but I must have missed it. Can you provide the link? I would like to see the context.

You said above that there is a reason...Care to share that reason?

I have also provided "the reason" in short in the same quote you have pasted.

I realize you want everyone to see this conflict as Islam vs the world, like you. But it is just not true. "The islam religion is the problem and the cause for the coming war", indeed...
