Wow, I don't know what is stupider the question or some of these answers.. . Islam's problems are their own design. You cannot have an intolerant religion that believes in the killing of innocents in terrorists attacks and not expect to get a bad reputation. Every time a bomb goes off and pictures show cheering Muslims the perception of them plummets.

If we eliminate the Jewish influence from the Christian life, there would be no Christian life. Muslims know this. I know some muslims and they tolerate me as a Christian, but they also say that I am breaking their holy law and as a Christian I should be their enemy. So Jews are not the only enemy of Islam. And it is their decision, not ours.

It is because of ignorance. Why do islamics attack us? Everyone just needs to get along and put religion aside. It does not make a person. Why is that to be religious people have to hate someone? Isn't it all supposed to be about PEACE & LOVE & HARMONY? I don't hate anyone because of their religion. It's just stupid to base your like or dislike on that.

Christians of today are no different than the mindless zombies who supported the crusades.. . Someone told them to hate Muslims, so they do.. . But, Christians hate everyone, so it doesn't take much to get them to focus their hatred on specific groups.

No Christian country faired very well persecuting their Jewish minority, look at spain, it used to be the richest country in the world, in todays money its wealth would be more then america's budget of the past 50 years, most of their gold was plundered by revenging Jewish pirates in the carrebian (most caribian islands have jewish cemetries with pirate signs on graves), who knows where the Gold whent, allot was sunk, some whent to the Dutch as they let in the jewish expellees, some reinvested in America and some hidden in places only the dead pirates know of.. . Whilst jews genraly dont go on a avengence campain, the downfall of spain in a mere 10 years left an impression on mideval europe about what the Jews are when they are in their country, and what their country is when the jews are not there. The Jewish Talmud makes its students more sharper then those who are not.. . So chrisitans arent interesting in starting another jewish persocution age, and Islam reared up its own head againt christanity. Jews living in arab lands where called dimis, they where servants of the states with little to no rights, when all the Jews left the arab countries, the arabs where very scared on what would be. So when they attack, they think they are attacking both christian and the jews who whent to the other side of the fence with them.

Ezekial 37.15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand. And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand. And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes. And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all: Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their Go

Because Jews are a threatening confrontation to Christianity, Islams are not.

The British even invented a cuboid bullet to fire from their muskets, because they thought it might do more damage to Turks. . . Who attacked Andalusia and starved 1/4 million people and terrorised the remaining population. by checking they were not washing themselves as a preparation for Muslim Salat [prayer]. . Then there is the Crusades........... . Wars against north Africans; A good anecdote - The French used to bury the Black Muslim Mahdist soldiers up to the neck and use them for Cavalry practise by cutting off their heads while carrying a sword on horseback.. . We all, know what the US did in Iraq........ . Of course Vlad the Impaler used to kill his own troops by hammering a steak through any of his soldiers who turned their backs to run from the Turks.
