>I have friends who are Muslims, just like I have friends who are Christians, etc.

I have a customer. He names himself as muslim and he swears islam periodically and of course he has a lot of muslim friend (included me). These are cannot make him respectful to islam.


>Where I draw the line is when a religion is used as justification for killing people (in the case of Islamic radical fundamentalism, that means Americans). There are millions of peple in the world who follow Islam and are decent people who want peace - but the sad fact is that much of the bloodshed in the world over the last 25-30 years has been done in the name of Islam.

Just PKK killed 30.000 people at my country at last 25 years and PKK claims itself as communist. We never say "but the sad fact is PKK is a communist organisation".
