Sorry, Tate, but you can't make a blanket statement like that. I do understand a bit about Islam. The Suni Muslims might be peace loving, but the Shiite Muslims are hardly so. Do a bit of reading about the concept of Jihad and slaying infidels before you try to tell me muslims are peaceful.
Al Queda is simply one of quite a number of militant muslim organizations. For support, they need friendly governments, like Iran, Syria and Iraq. Those muslim clerics who keep shouting death to the USA are hardly what I would call peace loving either.
All 19 of the terrorists who took down the world trade center and damaged the pentagon were muslims. Not a darned one of them was Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Budhist, or Shintoist. So why does K2 hate muslims? Why do I not feel a lot of sympathy for them? You judge, but be aware of the biblical passage, "Judge not, lest ye be judged."
