(can't really think of words bad enough) Absolutely. Does that have anything to do with the rest of - the vast majority of - the Muslim community around the world? Not in my view.



Yet this country is tearing itself apart and ginning up the hate over the value - or lack of it - in being Muslim. Replace the word Muslim with Jew and see how it reads. Oh, wait! "Jews" didn't kill 3000 Americans. Well, neither did "Muslims".
Who are you arguing with? Nobody on this board said that Bin-Laden represents all Muslims. We're all on the same page with you. Nobody thinks Bin-Laden represents all Muslims. Nobody has ever said that he represents all or most Muslims. Even when his popularity was sky-high, he probably wasn't much higher than a 50% approval rate or so.
