Nikita > "Beheading of hostages and killing of children have been huge embarrassment for Muslims around the world and questions have been asked. Muslims cannot blame Jews for this embarrassment for a change"

That's merely your opinion. The truth is that no-one actually knows who those are who are beheading hostages or detonating radio-controlled bombs. Besides so-called "insurgents" defending their own country from illegal aggressors, they could be "terrorists" from anywhere, criminals (as evidenced by the $1m ransom received for the Italian girls) or, most likely, agents provocateurs from Israel, Russia, Serbia or the US.

On the basis of cui bono, ie who benefits, there's no doubt that the demonization of Muslims caused by these ruthless killers aids and justifies US aggression against innocent people. By no stretch of the imagination can any of these heinous acts benefit Iraqis, Arabs or Muslims, generally.

The US has no right to be in Iraq -- period. If the US was not there, these acts would not occur. Of course you are right about Jews, these are not religious acts. They are politically motivated -- in fact, you can lay all these terrible deaths at the feet of your illustrious president and his advisors.
