No Ehab, we don´t "judge islam based on some muslim countries".

We judge islam based on some of their best among the best: yasser arafat (muslim inventor of modern terrorism), mohammed atta (muslim henchman responsible for the murders of over 3000 Americans in 9/11) , george habash (muslim terror master), mahmoud ahmadinejad (muslim hitler wanna-be), sheik ahmad yassin (muslim cleric with a legendary passion for killin Jewish children), sirhan bishara sirhan (Robert Kennedy's muslim murderer, in case history bypasses you), and so on (by the way, the lower case spelling is intentional, this assassins and low-lives don´t deserve capitalizing their names).

We judge islam based on the thousands of suicide bombings, murders of innocents, beheadings and hijacking performed on its name. We base it on the cry "allah hu akbar" heard countless times before pious moslems are about to perform their religious duty of killing, maiming, destroying, burning or kidnapping.

We judge islam based on the history of blood-shed and pain that islam has brought upon Judaism and the western societies for the last 70 years. We judge islam based on the intolerance of their religious leaders, on the hatred of their educational leaders, on the deceit of its political leaders and on the blood-thirst of the average Joe (or is it mohammed?) in the streets of "some muslim countries".

As on "lets not forget that Israel was created after WWII". Let´s also not forget that Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait and many other muslim countries are also the 20-th century creation of the European powers on the spoils of the Ottoman empire and elsewhere. Let´s also not forget that a full, vibrant Jewish establishment was already blossoming in those very lands before WWII, only devoid of "nationhood" because of British will. Let's not forget that tens of thousands of arab squatterers and opportunists came to Jewish Palestine thanks to the conditions created there by the Jewish pioneers.

But very likely you are a muslim. Facts and history don't mean a thing to muslims. So I shouldn't waste more time answering to your nonsense.
