No, sin is the reason we are always at war with eachother.
I love it when people give me thumbs down when I say things like "we are all sinners & the world is evil because of sin"...just goes to prove my point.

Of course not. There are some high-powered, stinking rich Jews who use (misuse) their financial influence with politicians. Eg. How come Kissinger got employment in both Democrat & Republican governments, even after being in Nixons team?
That particular type of Jew abused their position to lever for Israels creation, and this has caused major problems in and around the Middle East.
However, the majority of Jewish people wish for peaceful cohabitation with Muslims, Christians etc.
The blind support for Israel, which continuously breaks international law, by the overuse of the privileged veto held by the USA on the UNs Security Council, is certainly a factor in the world looking badly upon the US. I can't remember the last time the UK used their veto, yet the US has vetoed 27 security council actions against Israel in the last 10 years.

Maybe a little clarification/education is in order here. You should read the book "Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order" by Samuel Huntington before you post anything else like this.
We do not support "the Jews." We support Israel. You may not be aware of this, but Israel is not solely inhabited by Jewish men and women. There are many Christians and Muslims there as well. Actually, Jerusalem is functionally divided into three major areas for followers of each of the three main faiths in the city.
We find ourselves at this point now for reasons that date back well before the beginning of the Bush (jr.) presidency, or even Clinton, Bush (sr.), Reagan, or Carter. The Middle East has been a hotseat of political and religious feuding for hundreds, some even say over a thousand, years. Right now the Muslim community in the Middle East is exibiting a behavior pattern consistent with that of the Catholic church in the Middle Ages of Europe. There is a major difference though, now people can get connected to the larger world with much less effort than what was required then. Even though there are high rates of illiteracy and poverty in the Middle East, there are also communities of people that are highly educated and quite wealthy. This is a constant source of societal unrest in those countries.
The urge to "modernize" and adopt some modern living conveniences is in stark contrast to the clerical teachings of the Islamic faith. These contrasts can be reconciled, as many American and European muslims have shown, but in the Middle East that is not so easy. Western cultures exist on the principle of tolerance. We are allowed to question leaders, both political and religious. In fact, it is encouraged in our society. That is not so in the Middle East. We have a clash of civilizations and cultures here. On one side you have the wealthy western nations with their religious tolerance and moral subjectivism, and on the other hand you have growing nations of religiously intolerant leaders with strict moral codes that guide society.
Right now Iraq is not about killing all the bad guys or exercising enough military power to exorcise the insurgency. Iraq is about using our military to hold things together long enough to get the Iraqi people into a position to take care of things on their own. Iraqis want to live in a society where people aren't blown up by the dozens indiscriminantly, but they don't know how to run a democracy. I don't know if we can succeed in this endeavor, it is a huge order to try to fill, but right now we don't have a choice. If we fail right now Iraq will fall to the insurgency and we'll have bigger problems there than we did before. What we don't need is for unfriendly elements of the Iraqi political landscape to get control and partner up with Iran/Syria.
The Islamic terrorists aren't mad at us because we support Israel, that's just an excuse. When was the last time Israel bombed Afghanistan? The real reason is because they have little to live for in those countries and dying for Allah and going to heaven is a much more desirable path than starving to death or grinding out your days with no education, no job, and no hope for the future.

No. Religion plays a big part. It doesn't matter which one. They're all to blame.
You can't blame one side, it takes at least two to make an argument.
Two factors who are have tunnel vision,are greedy, and want power enough to watch their own children die for the "Good of the cause."
I can't understand why all the heads of those countries can't fight it out amongst themselves in a boxing ring. Winner, take all, and leave the innocent young men to live out their lives, instead of dying on battle fields.
I think maybe they're too afraid to get hurt themselves. After all, most of them are so old and have lived their lives, what do they care?.

Omg, no. That's not true. That's anti-semitic. And no Muslims don't think Jews are the cause of all the wars. It's mostly the Western idealogies that they fear. Jews are in the midst of all this becuz of the Israel-Palestine issue, which was actually started by the West.

Yes, those miserable Jews just can't wait to wrap their sons in explosives and send them off to kill innocent strangers.
Yes, those miserable Jews demand that everyone desist from eating pork or be burned at the stake. Anyone found with a rosary should be forced to convert to Judaism and be tortured into compliance!
And all those miserable Jewish doctors just can't wait to get their hands on some innocent Christian or Muslim!
Don't ever put your faith in a Jewish lawyer -- who knows what they would do to some innocent Christian or Muslim?
Rather than trashing the Jews -- you should be thanking your God that we have Jews in this world who strive in every way to make this world a better place for all humanity -- including people like you!

What kind of question is this?? The wars are here because people are ignorant and would rather kill each other then get along. They don't find other options besides war and many of the US troops have paid the price for it over the years. I just wished there was world peace!

That's not true. And don't you know this stuff is not religious? It's political !! Always was, always will be.
Political wars use religion as an excuse.
It's not a reason to go to war.
We support Israel because they support us.
It is called an ally, and we still have other allies as well.

Yeah, sure they are. They also built the concentration camps and put themselves into the gas chambers.
And if you believe that, I have this great bridge in San Francisco I'll sell you. Great view of the Bay.
