I'm actaully starting to get kind of concerned about this. It seems more and more in both groups, yet again, muslims and christians don't understand a thing about each other but they all think they know everything about each other. Perhapse every so often a crusade or jihad is innevitable between the two groups, but I can't say I'm happy about it .

now this is only the extent of my knowledge, but what I've seen:

-first there's all the fighting between israel and palestinians, which strengthens the idea in the west that "they're all a bunch of primitive savages" as I've heard so many times from so many people.

- then the US refuses to pull its troups out of saudi arabia implanting the idea in the muslim world that the christians want to control them. oh, and plus there's the innitial war in Iraq, though I don't think that pissed off too many people as far as I know, considering what saddam did.

- then in retalliation for the troups in their holy land (as I understand it, the area was considered holy) we get the 9/11 attacks. of course as goes with western propogranda, it was an "unprovoked attack" and everybody is now firmly convinced muslims are all crazy guys with AK's screaming "Mumamad jihad!!!". not that such an attack on civilians was justified, but stupidity goes both ways. not to mention the muslims and even sikh's (which doesn't make sense, but ah well they're all "sand niggers" as I've heard them say) being beatn up in the streets.

- THEN, we see the invasion of Iraq, it turns out there are no WMD's, and now the whole muslim world sees this as a christian crusade against islam, and for some it is really. so, as one muslim high-priest said "mr.bush has awakened the spirit of jihad in our youth". what do you expect when people hear the anti-western propoganda, then have it confirmed by seeing their family and friends being blown to bits by the thousands?

- then we have these damn cartoons and all the muslims who want an excuse to riot and destroy, now have one. and lets face it, whether your muslim, christian, or a hockey fan, everybody loves a good excuse to riot, even if it's punishing a whole race of people for the actions of a single newspaper. and of course, now the western world sees a bunch of angry islamics smashing and burning, so we're all certain now that the ones we see in the news are the ones that represent EVERYBODY in that faith.

- and now we have Iran and it's nuclear weapons (at least in popular opinion), a terrorist group ruling israel, and the US blowing up a house in pakistan full of innocents in a "shoots first ask questions later" strategy.

So gee golly jiminy whilickers, it seems everybody is just full of good excuses to keep hating each other based on a wonderfull array of steryotypes. as my college history professor said "there's nothing people love more than to have a simple enemy with a single face". it's times like these i'm glad I'm buddhist, because I don't want anything to do with this whole mess. what do you think? will this just keep escallating till we have full blown modern day religious war throughout the planet? is there really a solution? we take a spaceship and go live with the people on the planet marglar and forget all this crap? I think humanity is doomed to eternal stupidity and simplicity in thought.
