Colonialism may have ended but interference including violent interference by the West didn't. Also Islam hasn't been brow beaten by secularism like Christianity has, one reason being most Muslim countries haven't really been that independant for the last 500 odd years and so haven't really forged their own independant development for long. But Islams time to take such a beating by free thinkers in Muslim countries has already started and though such brave people are under death threats and some are paying the ultimate price, they are the first of many and their message will spread and eventyually Islam, like Christianiy will lose it's political influence and be consigned to the privacy of peoples homes. 

I do hope so, because obviously that's the only real way forward and of course as we are all too aware Western intervention is a complete non-starter.

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.

If you do have any democratic principles at all, then eventually the people will end up causing their will to be imposed and unless the bulk of society agrees to things out of bounds, than either the will of the masses will rule, or the will of oligarchs on top will rule.  Thing about the "protection" is everyone will use power to get what they want in the name of "protection".  Banks needed to get bailed out so the economy didn't go down.  Businesses need tarriffs and subsidies in order to be protected from harm.  America has to go into nations to protect this interest or that.  To prevent problems from popping up, and protect people, there is initiatives done, nd things like welfare, to protect people.  There is disaster relief.  The need to protect people and their perceived "rights" ends up with a government that will forever grow.  

So, you can speak to "ideally" but the problem is that we live in what is.

There needs to be a one size fits all solution to dealing with Muslims. Muslims who enter western nations should be monitored, closely tracked in order to prevent terrorism. The activities of Muslims need to be tracked by the government in order to keep us all safe and secure from possible Muslim terrorism. One Muslim terrorist act is too many but there have been multiple terrorist acts involving Muslims. Why do Muslim terrorists hate freedom and democracy?

The acid test in Egypt will be if rule of law can survive Mohammed Morsi. If the various organs of the state can remain independent of the Muslim Brotherhood, then the current climate in Egypt will only be a minor speed-bump towards a properly freer future, but if Morsi and the Brotherhood successfully subsume them, as Putin and United Russia have conquered every avenue of power within Russia (called "rule by law") without having to actually destroy said organs as dictators of old would have done, then we'll see some nasty, lasting damage.

Not true at all.  There's nothing in the Islam holy book that states to kill or provoke non-beilevers in any way. 

Now you don't say anything about how the Christians tried to do the same thing, but that behaviour isn't the way of the Bible, either.  It's the indiviuals that caused that, not the religion.  To think that is ludacris.   If they really wanted to conquer the World, don't you think they would have tried that by now?  And can you please clarify why do you think they want to kill everyone else who isn't Muslim?

It's not naive to think it's the West's fault, because it probably is.  We've been involved in so many wars in the middle east over the course of the last three decades, it's ridiculous.  It might be for oil.

Actually, I think the terrorist attacks on the US is a direct result of the hate that some Muslims have for this country because of their actions in the middle east. 

And as for you saying something about Israel, I don't see how you can side with a country that was formed from the lands Muslims have lived in for centuries and they form it without their consent or approval.   If the people who did 9/11 are terrorist, than the biggest terrorist is the United states of America and it's foreign policies.

Honestly, if you are going to make such a blatant claim, at least know what you're talking about first.  It makes you sound like a child.

I'd like to read your reason for why it's not us bombing them why they commit these acts.

I would say the same answer to any other extreme fundamentalist religion - education, exposure and human rights laws.

Extreme Religions prey on controlling people - the more extreme the more it controls. Look at how women can't even drive in many places. They don't have the same access to education and jobs as men, simply because of the gender they were born with.

Religions aren't all bad. But most of the extreme ones lead to their darker side.
