Yeah Haize has probably only seen the Muslims of the media and movies. In reality 99 percent of muslims are extremists (at least in the USA) and even in countries like Pakistan or other hard core areas I doubt the percentage of people who would strap a bomb to themselves is less than 1%. Communities make a big deal over a martyr who blows himself up because its a rare thing. It takes a LOT of balls and faith in something to coerce someone to kill themself.

That said, christians have been coerced in the same way by the pope in the past. Just look at the crusades and even recent events in history. It was not until the past century or so that the church had lost enough power in politics that it could no longer influence people in such destructive ways. Muslims have to open their eyes in the same way, and deal with their leaders in the same way before the situation will end. Given the chances of most of those governements becoming secular any time soon, I doubt we will see an end to this cycle of violence in our lifetime (at least not without a major regional war in the middle east which would be a tragedy). I MAY be off here (disturbed correct me) but I also believe Islam mandates that the government be run by religious authorities, unlike the bible that merely states to "respect the leaders and governments" of the world (christians view the heavens as their government, not an earthy one).
