Thank you for providing the link that proves my point.

It doesn't prove your claim that Muslims love death and have a culture of death, whatever that means. Muslims saying Jewish Israel should be removed from the map is comparable to Americans saying Communist Cuba should be changed into Capitalist Cuba. Their objection to Israel is an objection to an ideology and to institutionalized religious discrimination (against them) in their own "backyard". It's not an objection against humanity (as you appear to claim).

Imagine if Communist Cuba were actually landlocked with Southern Florida, and prior to 1959 (or whenever they had their revolution), it had been an English speaking capitalist US protectorate on its way toward joining the US (Something akin to Puerto Rico). If that were pre-revolution Cuba's situation, you can be damn sure that 95% of Americans would support the idea of wiping Communist Cuba/Southern Florida off the map, and we probably would have.

That wouldn't mean Americans have a "culture of death". I rest my case!

You seem unable to look at a situation from another side's perspective.
