The current terrorism is not "caused" by anything done 30+ years ago - or the Crusades. Actually, the fact that Islamic
groups bring up the Crusades should scream volumes about how warped their thinking is. It happened centuries ago. Get over it!
Atlantic magazine pointed out in interviews that young Islamic men in western lands frequently "felt like nothing, like nobodies"
in contrast to the prosperity of Western states. Dying for Allah gives them a sense of false importance - that's much easier than
actually building a decent, democratic society - it's so much easier to dream of a mythical caliphate - that will allow them to
beat their women and tax infidels forever. They have done this to themselves!
This terrorism is caused by the false expectations of a fanatical religion that teaches that Muslims are God's chosen people
- all while Islamic societies are backward, oppressive and mostly miserable in contrast to Christian/secular lands.
How many of you are familiar with the tantrums of a spoiled teenager? Blaming you for everything? If you are, you should
be able to understand the emotions of Islamic countries - always eager to fight, but rarely eager to build! Don't make the mistake
of accepting blame that isn't yours - especially when they fight against reasonable change and progress.
Consider this: How can you have a productive society when, in many cases, HALF of that society is kept away from education
or management? ( women). How many of you are familiar with the Muslim idea that a woman's testimony is only worth
HALF that of a man? That four (Muslim) witnesses to a rape are needed - or the woman may be prosecuted for
slander? It is claimed that 75% of the women in Pakistani prisons are there because they were raped - and protested
about it to authorities.
All of us on this board should be highly familiar with how religion can can warp people's thinking and proper sensibilities.
