again, that is a shot below the belly. If the entire population had access to good food clean water, freedom to speak and most importantly live without being oppressed by the oppressors, the world will be a better place. It is NOT idealistic, it is very much attainable in todays world. The question is do you want it?

BROAD GENERALIZATIONS ARE NOT VERY EFFICIENT... BUT
They are in the West now and they have access to all these things. But that is not really what drives them. There is something else going on. There is a teaching and an ideology that is driving the aggression.
The west has its own problems with ideology noticeable in the form of imperialism and taking the resources of other countries. either by cheating them out of their resources or out and out stealing everything by destroying their governments. I see the problem at the root of it all for the West and the Muslim lies in not understanding the "eternal" nature of the soul.
Both cultures the Christian and Muslim teach that the soul is created when the body is created. That there are different types of souls in the different bodies. This opens everything up for might makes right and abuse and exploitation of perceived weaker entities...finding the super race among humans, etc. So there is acknowledgement of God the creator but the understanding of the nature of soul is nonsense. Eternal means no end and "no beginning." If the soul is created when the body is created it cannot "become" eternal. Either the soul is eternal or it isn't. If this one point were cleared up... all the problem of the world could be solved very easily.
The missing piece is the knowledge of transmigration and reincarnation.
This is discussed and explained very nicely in the Bhagavad Gita As It Is (1970) especially Chapter two.

You are entitled to your opinion, and I'm not about to get into a debate about religion with you or any other person. My point of contention is your generalisation that all muslims are evil. All I ask is for us is to look beyond all religious dogma, cultural differences, colour of skin etc and come together for the good of mankind...peace..

There are those who perceive gentleness as weakness and kindness as stupidity. There appears to be a preponderance of such people openly flaunting aggression and announcing, "I am a Muslim and this what it means to be a Muslim in their aggression." I am not labeling them. They are proudly announcing this is what it means to be a Muslim. "I cut your head off."
Intelligence means to be able to recognize them and do the needful.
I am reminded of a Bengali story.. the three boys in the jungle.
The first boy saw the tiger coming and thought.."Everything is spiritual... the tiger ate him."
The second boy saw the tiger coming and thought.."Supersoul is in the tiger's heart... the tiger ate him."
The third boy saw the tiger coming and thought.. "Krishna ( God)! There's a tiger coming. What should I do?"
Krishna (God) said, "Climb a tree."
