Answer:

Because Muslims kill westerners because they are westerners. Not because they are Christian or Jewish or what not.

Wrong, it's because they are not muslin thus infidels.

No. What happened was in 1918 Britain and France divided the ME amongst themselves. They put different ethnic groups how though both Muslim didn't like each other together. Then in many Jews started immigrating into the British territory of Palestine from Eastern Europe. The Arabs and the Jews both wanted Palestine to be an independent country, however the two wanted the land for themselves. So the two attacked each other and the British. Eventually the British made Palestine an Arab state and Israel a Jewish state. Now the West continued to dip its hands into the ME for its oil, often exploiting the regions instability. This first truly got started when the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, which at the time was in a state of civil war. So the Americans gave the Afghans weapons to fight the Soviets, however America also supported Israel even through its conquering of Arab controlled lands that were not its according to the 1948 agreements. Because of this many Arabs thought the US to be bad, so they attacked it. Then the US counter attacked and started bombing terrorists in Afghanistan. While they did kill many terrorist and destablize the terrorist leadership American attacks cause much colateral damage. Then the US attacked the Arab state of Iraq and you should know the rest.

In the end religion is not the reason they hate us. They hate us because the West has been imposing things  that they didn't agree to on them for 90 years and they hate it, so they hate the people who did that which happens to be us. Nothing to do with the difference of religion.

My history teacher is pretty moderate.

He also has a saying "don't let the fact ruin your opinions", I think you follow it quite well.

In 2001 a group of Muslims flew planes into the WTC, Pentagon, and a farmers field.  They killed over 3000 people that they referred to as "infidels" in their statements.  They did these attacks in the name of their religion.  It was Islamic.

They hit the World Trade Centre - a clear symbol of capitalism and globalisation.
And you think they did it for religious reasons? lol

Sure about that?

But I think it's kind of obvious that this wasn't so much a religious attack as a calculated political attack from a religion-ated group.

Ummmmm, have you ever hear of Osama Bin Ladin?  Do you remember why he said he attacked America and him Quoting some old book and stuff?

The goal of the attack was to hurt America and Americans as much as possible, BECAUSE we were evil and his God demanded it.  Thus the whole Jihad thingy and Virgins to screw dead terrorists and stuff.

Whoa, Go Hemp!!!!

Atheists most certainly will need to be locked up by all the religions because they are dangerous.

hint: NO, Osama bin ladin is not a Democratic Senator from MA.  Nothing to do with politics.

LOL Where to start... maybe from the fact that the CIA "created" Osama Bin Laden when he was fighting against the Russians. Does that count as politics for you?
