I made that statement because I know where these discussions always lead, away from the point being discussed to: Buss/Cheney/Iraq/Haliburton/Oil/blah,blah,blah

I was just referring to anyone who commits or intends to commit violence on the basis of religion is an idiot

We agree 100% on this point.

You believe we are at war with the Muslim religion? Wow.

Don't tell me what I believe. I didn't make that statement.

Middle eastern extremism biggest problems is our relationship with Isreal with their on going conflict with Palestine, our influence we have built in the region which was based on our need for oil in the past, and yes our conflicts we have waged, which you correctly identify as a mistake.

I never made that statement in response to your post either. Again, back to the Bush/Iraq thing.

Their view of Religion is twisted to serve them, use as justification and brings them together to fight whoever.

Its crazy, but alot of them over their see us as a threat to their culture, they dont want their kids growing up playing with plastic guitars in front of the TV. Thats why separation of church and state works. It cant be twisted. Christianity has been used in the past to commit violence, the last 10 years not so much, throughout history, absolutely.

So based on your statements above, you do believe there's a sizable population in the Middle East and elsewhere that holds the view that violence against the U.S. and its citizens (infidels/non-believers) is justified under their religious views?
