<i am merely showing most muslims as sinful and rotten.>

That's exactly what they think of us. Read the Muslim press. Even those who are generally sympathetic to the U.S., and want peace and accommodation (like Malaysia's leaders), think we are violence-prone Godless materialists, sensualists who tolerate a list of things they consider perverted. And they consider us immensely arrogant, proclaiming the superiority of American/Western culture.

You demonise them, they demonise you. This allows everyone to justify unlimited violence against each other, because you don't really consider each other human. In an age of nuclear and biological weapons, this belief is suicidal. Your hate, combined with Bin Laden's hate, hate that feeds and reinforces itself, is going to get us all killed.
