It is interesting how a religion needs to be watered with some blood before it starts to mellow. Islamd is 600 years behind christianity so I think they need a home grown crusade or two, before they start to mellow as well.

The more sophisticated Muslims - I have met many pretty OK Iranians with degree level qualifications and so on - are fine. To them, Islam is a cultural background, not immutable law, same as Christianity is to us.
It is the hordes of barely educated fundamentalists who are flooding in from severely economically backward countries who represent the real problem.
