What is the answer to radical Islam? This is NOT an anti Islam thread

Completely different.

You're talking about terrorism over occupation issues.

Without Muslims we wouldn't have these bombings/terrorims/acts of evil/disgusting people.

You just said without muslims we wouldn't have bombings/terrorism...

I provided evidence that non muslim entities still bomb/use terrorism/perform acts of evil and can be disgusting people. Seems exactly the same to me.

Sorry I should have been more specific obviously I meant within the context of radical islam, "these" as in to say the ones that are carried out in the name of islam by extreme Muslims.

I'm not anti Muslim or anything and don't blame everything wrong in the world on them, for that I blame religion in general as being the root of all evil combined with complacency within the moderates in religion.

Sorry if I seem really hostile over it, but I was born in the UK in the 80s. My image of a "terrorist" was a white guy in a balaclava for the IRA. I was in Manchester on the day that bomb was set off and only 11 years old. I also grew up in a part of the country with a lot of muslims, so they are my childhood friends, they are now my neighbours etc (the UK is very multi cultural in that regard and it's one of the few countries like that). There is definitely a problem with extremism. But I actually think western society is helping to reinforce that hatred and give the extremists who are preaching this crap a "valid source" :(
