Yes. There are radicals in EVERY religious group.
But the tactics employed here are like taking Fred Phelps' actions and proclaiming condemnation on "Christianity".

If you want to be critical of Islam, then be critical of the RELIGION and stop trying to take examples and stereo-typing them as the ENTIRE religion being responsible.
It's an issue of FAIRNESS. Not stereo-typing.
We went through this turnstyle before...

I posted an article about a survey of Indonesians where 10% (That's 24 MILLION people) believe that killing innocent civilians in defending Islam's "good name" is acceptable...

That's just one country...and not even in the Middle East...

Please don't call it "stereo-typing" when Muslims have repeatedly demanded DEATH for printing CARTOONS, for writing a book, or for calling a teddy bear "Mohammed"...

This is systematic and people have DIED because of it...Newsweek ran a story (later retracted) about flushing a Koran down the toilet and protests and rioting resulted in 16 deaths...

These are NOT isolated...There is a pattern...
