"Anyone who wrongs a Christian or Jew will have Myself as an Enemy on the Day of Judgment" -Muhammad
So much for your "kill all non-Muslims" idea. Those who become fundamentalists only interpret what they read the way the want to. There is no offical interpretation for the lines in the Quran that are in an expressive form or vague.

Please do not point fingers to every young muslim man and say he has the potential to become a terrorist. That falls under stereotyping. Thats as false as saying every hindu does what Bollywood star Abishek Bachan did when his stars did not match Ashwariya Rai and had to marry a tree before he could marry her. I mean seriously.

Furthermore, have you ever heard of the Crusades? The Inquisitions? The pogroms against jews or the witch burnings?
So much for your notion that the other major religions haven't had the same exact problems with fanatacism."

Terrorism + islam don't correlate. So your timeline is all wrong becuase you forgot to add the "terrorists" in China that want Tibet, or the Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanka.

Atleast you got that much right about provoking those who ARE fundamendalists by bringing infidels who decide they want to "fix-up" someone else's country. You can't expect them to sit there and watch.

You have certain facts , I'll give you that, but I highly doubt a mere professor was able to sit down and talk to hamas leaders and al-qaeda members and ask them WHY they do what they do. No offense but you are no DAN RATHER. haha

P.S There are 10 million Muslims in the U.S alone. Speaking for New York , the women are active muslims who par take mosque events as equally as men do. They have their say and do. So re-do your approximations again and enlighten me by giving me a new estimate for "potential fundamentalist".
I'll make sure to let my non muslim friends know! haha
