I mean I don't think it is as simple as religious differences or that they are just crazy. I want someone (who knows what the hell they are talking about) to give me a comprehensive breakdown of all of this madness so that I can have a better understanding of people I've been taught to loathe and fear.

I could tell you, but you probably won't believe me. ( ;
Okay, okay, here it is:
Genesis 16: 11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
The people who claim to be the descendants of Ishmael are the Arabs. Ishmael was sent away from Abraham because Sarah was tired of the 'mocking' that Ismael was doing towards Isaac. Ishmael wanted the 'birthright promise' and it was to go to the 'child of promise,' Isaac. And the Muslim religion was convenient for the continuation of that 'mocking.' It's sort of a promise that God had for Ismael that really wasn't so good, and I think that Hagar, Ishmael's mother, didn't realize. She just wanted to live, and with her son.
So what I am saying is that this was all supposed to happen. The reason that it is like this in the Middle East is; because it's supposed to be.
Most people see only the surface, the warring, Islamic terrorism, etc. The issues being; should the US be there, or should we just leave, etc. But it's actually more than that. It's not that God made it happen. It's just that God saw it before it happened. And that's why it's like that over there.
It's just the beginning. ( :

When has the middle east not been in a crisis?? For thousands of years, they have been killing each other in the name of their god. They treat their cattle & goats better than their women. They denounce the western culture when they know nothing about it. Violence, not reasoning, is a way of life. And the rewards are just a tad strange. 72 virgins in heaven await a suicide bomber? Look at that liitle dwarf running Iran, Ahmadinejad. He's a fine example of a middle east fruit cake if ever there was one. I say, as long as we have troops in the region, let's take out Iran and Syria too.

For getting an answer for your question you please ask the person who started the crisis on the basis of non existed WMD. Where there is money you will have devils to fight for.

God created Adam and Eve. After that, things get a little fuzzy.

When Muslims decided their god is better than all gods and they got pissed that no one was adopting Islam and their god.
