Let's go even farther back and blame it all on the crusades, or all the way back and blame it on Cain slaying Abel. When you get your time machine up and running let us know so we can go back and correct all the historical blunders and inequities that got us where we are today, but these radicals believe we "infidels" should be dead today, will not settle for anything less today, and will be more than happy to fuck up all our tomorrows. I'd be more than happy to shake hands and be friends with them just as most other Americans would, I would be overjoyed, but for whatever reasons they believe their God tells them to kill us and there is no compromising with anyone who believes such and is devoted to doing Gods will.
