its bcuz they hate Muslims.. this is not a case of now adays.. it has been there for centuries..\nMuslims treated the Hindus perfectly .. but the HIndus always kept a grudge against them,.. n this they do with christians too..\n\nthe Brahmans (3% of the whole population) have the control over all the good stuff.. whereas the Shudras (the untouchables) which r in majority r suffering!!!\n\neven before the indo pak partition.. the Congress (indian political party) when got some power in some provinces made every student bow infront of the picture of GANDHI.. they gave a damn abt the feelings of muslim students.. n Muslims were not a minority .. they were 40% of the ppl.. n thats not a minority... \nn they were also forced to sing "BANDRE MATRAM" at the school assemblies which had hatred for Muslims....\n\nhindus have always been treating Muslims like this.. well not only muslims but also christians n the untouchables.. i read in a history book that they used to put molten lead into the ears of the shudras if they heard the hindu holy book!

There are plenty of wealthy people in Islam. Those that blame the West for their misery have just joined the bandwagon. It's chic to blame the West, especially the US.

Muslims are taught by their religion, Islam, to kill the infidel.  This is a hard fact that so many people don't want to believe.  In case you didn't know, anyone who is not Muslim is an infidel.  In the same way that Christians are taught to love their neighbors, Muslims are taught to hate and kill.  You figure it out from there.  I just read what the Muslim wrote while I was writing this.  In the same way he carefully quoted his book to make his point, I can do the same with our Bible.  When you take things out of context, they can be made to say anything.  I stand by what I wrote above.

Because after 9/11, we needed someone to blame. We had to have a scapegoat, and the government and media gave us one: Islam. We did the exact same thing with Japan during WWII. Hitler did this as well with the Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, etc. (note: I am NOT comparing America to Nazi Germany, I am merely pointing this out as an isolated fact). It's just human nature; we believe that everything has a cause, whether it be good or bad. And to us, the cause of 9/11 is Islam. Of course, discriminating against anything with a turban and a Qu'ran is a very unfortunate effect of this, but it's something we do as a species.

In my opinion it is not the Americans who blame Muslims its the US administration who does it for some political and strategical reasons. To make this point clear, before 9-11 the US couldn't enter the Mid East and does what ever it wants claiming that they are chasing terrorists. Fighting terrorism might be truth, but terrorism is not fought by killing every body there. So many people were killed during the American air strikes on Iraq. Some of them might be criminals but the majority was not. Children and woman were killed brutally. I will not go through all of this but one thing that I can say is that the US is not fighting terror, they are aiming for something other than terror and I'll leave it for you to figure out.\n\nWe should not generalize if we see some thing bad. Most of the American people are good, friendly and always seeking the truth and right thing. I am saying that even if I am a Muslim!\nYou shouldn't say that all Muslims are bad and terrorists. If any body is mature enough he knows that people differ between good and bad even if they are in the same religion.\n\nEven if all Muslims are bad you shouldn't judge their religion until you read it and understand it. You don't have to convert, only do it for your own knowledge.

Because ignorancy is the reason, they don't realize that pointing the finger to the west is not any way solving the problem that they have with us if anything it only antagonizes us to a point where we want to beat the heck out of them. But you have to understand if there clerics aren't trying to teach them anything different how would you expect the people to be any different. So they feel by burning the American flag is a good thing. Something else I should mention, There society is all messed up simply because they have religious fundamentalist that are to me nothing but radicals that are teaching the word of the Quran wrong and twisting it to there own personal gain. Anytime they do that you have radical exstremist that follow along with the belief that it is right. They choose to blame the Americans because out of ignorance they are not willing to put the blame where it really belongs and it is with them. But as you see none of them are willing to do that but they are quick to blame the West for any and everything that goes on with there society. What I want to know is when do they really wake up and see what they are doing to there people because all they are doing is confusing them where they don't know what is right from what is wrong. And when is the Islamic clerics and leaders are going to start teaching good instead of hate to the extremist? I guess when God comes and wipe the real infedels from the face of the earth.

but but ... you list social woes while most religious folks clutch onto religion as a personal life raft.  whatever heinous actions are made in the name of their religion matters not.  it's the personal comfort they get from believing they're safe from their deity's wrath and the feeling of being special and a part of something bigger than themselves that cements their dependence on their religion. besides, the woes of the world created by religion are always blamed on an Evil One and evil doers.

Well, I've never quite understood why people would blame ANYONE of today for things that have happened in the past.  No matter what religion they followed. I'm a Pagan but I would certainly disagree with how the Pagan Emporers of Rome treated other people, including other Pagans. (Julius Ceasar damn near wiped out the Pagan Celts in war).\n\nAs for someone not wanting Christianity to happen, I don't believe this.  Though I know there are people today who are tired of some Christians using the "persecution" card while persecuting people of other religions themselves.  This is tiring.  As for covering up a myth... you find what you are looking for.  If you are looking for a myth, you will find nothing but myth.  \n\nAs for dying for a false cause...  Would you say those Extremists in Islam are dying for a false cause?????  I'm betting you would.\n\nPersecution has happened everywhere, for different reasons though those reasons usually boil down to either Religious or Political... sometimes both.\n\nAnd just as tired as you are of being blamed for WW2... I am just as tired of being blamed for consorting with demons and casting spells on people.  Misinformation is rampant and people would rather believe the worst in others, than to look for the good.  It happens in all groups and the only way to deal with it is on an individual basis, rather than trying to take on a "label" as a whole.

This assumption is not necessarily correct. "all" people dont think Muslims are terrorists. I have many muslim friends who are very good human beings. Innocent, helping and humble

Perhaps you could word your question in this way: "Why do SOME non-muslims (in the world)hate SOME Muslims?\nSome non-muslims hate terrorists and suicide bombers, religious fanatics, etc., which they think some Muslims are.  Hate is a very sad thing to feel, though.  If people would just sit down and discuss their differences, they could work them out.  The problems are more economic and social, and could be solved, leaving everyone to enjoy thier own, private religion in peace.

The Islamic civilization is under suspicion and being accused, because a very few members of the Islamic religion is trying to obliterate countries that do not agree with them, which is most of the world.  I know that this is a very few members of Islam, not all of them.

Ignorance leads to bigotry.  For example, the belief that Muslims and Christians worship different Gods has caused a lot of trouble.  When you find out that people have similar believes, there is no reason to fight over believes.

Not everyone believes Islam is evil.  I think there are those who have perverted the sayings of the Prophet and it is this misinterpretation of the Koran which is causing great evil and unrest in the world.

Some people do it to deflect from their own failures and shortcomings. Not all though blame their God for it.

Hardly ... it is not religion that is to blame ... but sick individuals that cause the problems. Anyone can use any excuse they want to do bad things, but that doesn't make them a legitamate representative of the religion, philosophy, social movement ... etc, etc, etc.

Because of the actions and behaviours of a minority.  It is a bit the way Muslims are so often judged based on the actions of the fundamentalist terrorists.  Some lawyers are in it for the money, even if that means that justice needs to be put aside.

Muslims are offended when they perform terrorist acts and then are branded as terrorists, as you note.  The reason they are offended is that they underrate the average person's intelligence.\n\nThey will not disapprove of terrorism, because they regard it as their most effective e&#92;weapon in Islamizing the entire world.
