"Neither way am I wrong in what I see"
That's the problem, there are thousands of people being killed in the name of Allah, and nobody can tell these terrorists they are wrong.
All because of a book written 1400 years ago, which hold no true relevance in today's society.
The truth is, you or I could make up a religion in our heads and it be as real as Islam, Christianity or any other, because that's exactly what Jesus, Muhammed and co did.
Haha, Cal Neva got there before me

They've experienced somewhat of a regression due to religious fundamentalism but to claim that it will never be civilised is to completely ignore the history of the region. Lebanon, Afghanistan, Iraq, Eqypt. Look into the history of these countries in terms of democracy, politics, technological innovation.

Fair comment, but those enlightened times are behind them - unless you count Israel?
-----
I also find it hard to believe that anyone would advocate blanket nuclear bombing of a region, killing millions of innocent people in the process, due to the actions of what are (for the most part) clandestine organisations which are opposed by the governments and peoples of the region.

It's called collateral - and perfectly justifiable for the greater long term good.

Well then you're no better than the Talibam

The religion itself is not evil. Some of the Muslims (terrorists like Al Qaeda, the Taliban, the Tamil Tigers, etc...), and some religious zealots are the ones who are evil, because they are hypocrites.
The definition of a hypocrite is someone who pretends to be what he or she is not. They say that follow the tenets of Islam, but they violate the very tenets, beliefs, and spirit that Islam stands for.
Most Muslims are not like this, in fact a lot of my best friends (I am not Muslim, by the way. I am Roman Catholic) are Muslim. The press, media, and internet demonize Islam, just as they demonize the Roman Catholic Church because of what a few priests and religious (about 1/2 of 1% of the total number of priests and religious in the United States) did by molesting children.

It's just an excuse.. if it was not for the religion, it would be for something else as been proved for centuries and 1000s of years. What part of Islam or any religion says kill your own people and children? Please. It's all to do with power and if you think it's simply religion well you are naive. Was world war 1 and 2 fought over simply religion, the 2 wars that claimed close to 100 million lives collectivity? This is humanity.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Whether it's an excuse or not, it's an absolute cop out to say it has nothing to do with religion. Clearly it does.

You're British and advocating the mass murder of tens or hundreds of millions of innocent people. Men, women, children. People who oppose the exact thing you oppose.
You're worse than the Taliban. At least they only killed 100.

I'm extremely British... and believe that we should do whatever it takes to protect and further our own interests; even if it means nuking a few troublesome stone throwers.

They are simply reading the text and acting it out, there are sections of the Quran which advise you to fight non-believers. This must make all of the "good" Muslims wrong, no?

Whether religion exists or not evil will still find a way to resurface. I am of the thinking that evil can never be extinguished and it will always exist.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To an extent, yes, you're right. There would be war over land, money, ect.
But at least those wars are for physical things which can be rationalised. The fact god had and never will be proven to exist, makes religious wars more difficult to counter.

Not in Arabic, skim read it the same as the bible.
Are you saying that the Muhammed was not told to fight those who do not believe in the lord our saviour Allah?
