You can blame all Muslims all you want to, mrmaczaps, but the fact remains that a majority of Muslims are against what these terrorists are doing and want to fight back against them just as the rest of us do.

Whats worse is that many of these radicals follow the orders of their preachers without question. If their preacher opens up a passage commanding unbelievers to be executed, they won't even look at the very previous sentence commanding that this only applies to murderers and war criminals. Even if they did know, they would claim that their preacher's interpretation is infallible and anyone who disagrees must be killed.

I never understood the stance of many Republicans stance against Islam and Muslims in general. As someone with Republican views myself, I always thought the more conservative and traditional minded party would naturally ally itself with a religion which shares many of its values and work together to defeat terrorism, as opposed to liberals (who differ with Muslims on many issues) defending the religion and the people after every attack.
