There is not genocide occurring in Chechnya nor in the Phillipines. I want you to go through an exercise. Take a world map and put a star next to all the flashpoints in the world where one group of people is fighting another. Then take see if one of the parties fighting is an Islamic people. You'll find that 95% of the flashpoints are Muslims fighting other people. In almost all cases, the Muslims are looking to create an Islamic state for themselves and seced from some other country, or they are just fighting their neighbors. That, my friend, is called a pattern. Muslims don't know how to get along with their neighbors. They have a perpetual chip on their shoulder. Unfortunately for the Muslims, the people they usually attack have more firepower than they do. So they get their ass handed to them. Then they play the victim card. A great example of that is the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The Palestinians were offered a state when Israel was first created. They rejected it. Then Arafat was offered a state at Camp David and he rejected it. Then Bush offered Abbas and then Qurei a state and they refused to take the first steps to implement the roadmap to the state. Muslims and Muslim sympathizers should look to what's wrong with Muslim society first. That is where the ultimate problem is. The rest of us in the world would like nothing better than to live in peace, but the Muslims of the world have made it abundantly clear that this is impossible.
