As much as I now despise religion as a whole, I actually believe that Islam is what has kept Iraqis and Palestinians patient or things could be different. There was something that always pissed me off about Muslims and it was how they would always say to certain things "let allah handle it" or they would say "allahu kareem". They would show much patience and part of it was because of their religion. For the west to blame Islam for the insurgents in Iraq or the outrage by some agonized Muslims is very absurd and unreal. Did the U.S not attack Afghanistan as soon as 9/11 happened? Were Americans not angry over the 3,000 that died on that horrible day? Why don't we blame Christianity for what the U.S did to Iraq and Afghanistan yet these same people want to bark at Islam when oppressed and angry Muslims fight back? It isn't even all Muslims but very few who are fighting and committing violence so how can we blame Islam for something that is human nature.

Will an Atheist or any westerner not defend himself when he is attacked or a burglar enters his home? Why the hell does our constitution allow us to own weapons if not to defend ourselves. Or are they as silly as to tell us people should follow Christian teachings that we should allow someone to rape our sisters, mothers etc. I like to see a Christian getting his mama raped and then pass the rapist his wife in the process. This is all bullshit and no sane human would allow it. No one is obligated to tolerate such things and Islam has nothing to do with it because people will fight back and even opponents of the same country may unite just to fight an outsider. Did republicans and democrats, though the same anyway, not unite after 9/11 just for the sake of this country?

I totally object to this claim and saying this doesn't make me an Islam lover just like defending gays doesn't make me one. Religion can be ridiculed for a lot of things but it is innocent in this case. I had this argument the other night on a yahoo chat with an Australian atheist who was blaming Islam for all terrorism. He even claimed that 97% of all terrorism is done by Muslims and I was wondering where he got that stat from and what the fuck his definition of terrorism was. He didn't see the sanctions and injustice against Iraqis as wrong but was bitching about some David Pearl that had his head chopped off by "Muslim terrorists" and he dismissed the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by saying the Japanese and Americans were at war but didn't cut off heads.

So dropping atomic bombs on innocent people is not as bad as cutting someone's head off. Killing one is person is worse than killing millions of innocent civilians. I guess the lives of darker skinned people and Muslims are not so sacred or valid as the life of one White person or westerner.
