I must point out that your clear reference to Muslims being 'uncivilised' is pretty unfair. How about you do a little bit of research in that area and find out if really it is only those in "countries that populate at a fast rate and with many familys often having 8 or more offspring" that Islam is present.

Im glad you bring attention to how the radicals make Islam look like the most UN-peaceful religion in the world but again you contradict that and stereotype Islam to be the cause of this war not an EXCUSE used my terrorists to destroy and kill as it really is.

On one front I agree with you whole heartedly ; the muslims who DO know what Islam is really about and what the terrorists do is wrong, should do more to try and bring an end to such violence. But see, the radicals causing these problems are not ordinary people but most are in powerful places and difficult to stop. I think the Muslims should be allowed a fair amount of time and help instead of blame and insult on the religion they believe in.

Why doesn't any non-Muslim step in to help Muslims under cruelty who dont have a choice and are forced to abide my violent laws and suffer the consequences of the radicals' actions? All I see everywhere is people showering hatred - because it is the easiest to give I suppose.

A comment like yours "infidel" only summons annoyance or even hatred towards you and people with your mentality, not appeal to make a difference.
