I'm not tarring every Muslim with the same brush as OBL. However, take a look at what's happening in Iraq and Palestine. Take a look what happened in Spain and the U.S. Take a look at what happened in the Netherlands. Take a look at what is happening in Kashmir. Take a look at what is happening in Saudi Arabia. The Muslim suicide bombing culture is very widespread. The suicide bombers are hailed as heros, even by so-called moderate Muslims.

There is a huge difference between them and the fundamentalist Christians in this country. If Falwell started to espouse violence against Muslims or anyone for that matter, he'd lose all his adherents. If violence ensued, he or the perpetrators would find themselves in jail.

In Muslim countries, suicide bombers are honored. Doesn't that seem a bit odd to you?

This is why people don't take you seriously, tejek. Your criticism of the U.S. knows no bounds and is just plain silly. To compare fundamentalist Christians in the U.S. to Muslim fundamentalists in Muslim countries is a stupid comparison with only surface parallels, but no parallels where they count.
