Better yet Eric, let's see YOU walk down the street in any of these muslim countries and let's see how long it takes you to assume room temperature. Put up or shut up. The religion of peace would use your head for a paint bucket.

I agree with you that most Islamic countries are not good places for Christians, Jews, minorities, and women to be. But, many people who claim to be followers of Islam are not, in fact, violent people.
I know, that to say true Islam at its core is essentially a peaceful religion, is illogical; but many such followers, of what they themselves call Islam, do not ascribe to the terrorist tradition of its founding rapist, pedophile prophet. Yes these blind followers are basing their faith on the most unworthy and unholy of prophets, and yes, America's politicians do not say anything to discredit the irrationalities of Islam. However, these people who call themselves Muslims and who are in reality not Muslim, are not the people we are martially fighting.
The only way to combat irrationality is to use educated reasoning. Using militant irrationality to fight irrationality will only produce more of the same from both sides. Needless bloodshed, sir. Nobody who is anybody wants that.
