Things are really heating up. The true face of Islam is slowly dawning on a world long told it is a religion of peace. Global conditions have changed drastically in the last 60 years or so. And with all the modern electronic means of communications, cheap weapons available, strongly opinioned Islamic groups across the spectrum, the world is now set up for them to go after one another as they did in times past.
As one can see, it is not just Arab mentalities involved, but many muslim based cultures that often have wide difference. And all it takes is a few strongmen who gain positions of power whether political/government/cleric to set countries ablaze. Somolia is a perfect example of how the muslims under the protection of government are slaughtering millions of people. But they all have one thing in common. They appose freedom, free speach, freedom to worship as one wishes. So the western civilizations have one heck of a long term problem on their hand.
These people are so backward in so many ways, and often totally ruthless. They are no different then a band of drug warlords who will kill anyone that gets in the way of them making huge amounts of money, or the commies that killed literally hundreds of millions of people.

Christianity had bloody inter-sect wars hundreds of years ago. They occurred because mixing political power with theology. When Protestants could not be loyal to a Catholic king, or vice versa, then the sovereign had a strong incentive to stamp out other sects.

Once religion was taken out of politics, then religious wars abated

One big problem with Islam (besides it being founded by a pedophile sand pirate) is that religious power and political power are joined, and that this is fundamental to Islam. It cannot be "reformed" out of Islam and still call what's left "Islam"
