Let's be honest here.....a group of people from a certain religion have declared war on you, me and everything this country stands for. I know of no other religion which has done the same.
Do you expect to win by convincing all those billion Muslims that you hate them all and intend to kill them? Or by convincing them that there is a small fraction of hotheads among them that attacked you and continue to attack you and you intend to stop THEM?

No other religion? How about Christianity and the Crusades?

We confidently reply that those who ..... shall die in battle fighting bravely against pagans or unbelievers, shall receive eternal life.
Sounds like a Mullah calling the faithful to battle doesn't it? Know what it's from?

You point would be well taken if it happened on a regular basis or happened EVERY DAY.
During the Civil War Confederate soldiers shot and killed American soldiers EVERY DAY! Shall we go down and lynch all Southerners? In the IRA uprising, Northern Irish and British troops were killed nearly EVERY DAY. Should they have exterminated the Irish?

To quote a religious teacher "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone."

a group of people from a certain religion have declared war on you, me and everything this country stands for.
A group, yes. That's different from ALL. That previous piece was aimed at ALL.
