JR I understand your point, of coure there are not billions of people trynig to kill US, it is a small sect of Islamic Fundemantalist who are doing all the terrorist. However, if you look at polls there is a majority of Muslims who support these people. The State Reglion of Saudi Arabia is based on the strict, fundementalis very of Islam... and while they are not all picking up weapons, they do support these clowns. Look at the Madrases through out parts of the middle east, and central asia....
Ironicly Iraq is NOT a fundamentalist State, however Saddam is a pragmatist and is more then willing to use the terrorist as it favors his policies.
I keep saying our real issue and problem in the world right now is Saudi Arabia - they are the muscle, the brains, and the financing of the Islamic Fundementalist movement.
There are also strong movements in Pakistan, and in Iran.... though in Iran I understand it is wainging somewhat, and the younger generations are tiring of being led by old bitter religious men.
It is still a major threat to the world, I remember a college professor telling me in 1990 that Fundementalist Islam is going to be the biggest challenge to the world. One reason the Russians went into Afganistan was to put down these threats. The Russians are still fighting the same people, just in other parts of the region.
It is a complex picture, and to brush all people who worship Allah as a threat is defiantely wrong, but for our leaders to tell us Islam is great and a peaceful religion, that Saudi Arabai is our friend, Pakistan is doing everythng it can against terrorists - well this is ALL BULLSHIT!!!
