text: "so obviously its not religion thats the problem".   Definition of naive.  I know you would like to think that but this is not only about the terrorist attacks, it is about culture.  Their religion does not like our culture.  They do not like gays, they believe women should be subservient.  Pew polls suggest that while a small minority believes in the violence (still a whoopingly high number in absolute terms), they do believe cartoonists should be killed if they portray mohammed.  And they also believe in Sharia law.  Overtime you see a muslim leader or Imam get questioned they say "Islam" is a religion of peace, but push them on Sharia, women and gays and its all double speak and changing the subject.  Plus, where are they when these things happen?  I rarely see any news stories of large swaths of muslim sincerely renouncing these atrocities nor do I see them doing something about it day to day. You would think the left leaning media will be all over those types of stories.
