By making 9/11 about religion, as opposed to making it about terrorist states and terrorist activities. When the Irish and the English were blowing each other up every day back in the 80's and 90's, no American president ever talked about "Radical Catholics." They stressed the political and geographical differences of the enemy, not their religion. In the present situation, the President and the American media has used the religion of the attackers as their defining common trait, since it didn't highlight their political issues with how the US had handled itself in the region.
There are more Muslims in the world than Christians, and the vast majority of them are peaceful people. Thinking that radical Muslim terrorists represent all Muslims is the same thing as thinking that the KKK represents all Christians. It's a lazy and ignorant way of just letting the TV do your thinking for you, because you're afraid of what happened to our country.

I was born and raised in Europe and have been living in the USA for about 20 years. I know that people in Europe have been feeling resentment for the Northern Africans and Turkish Muslims for a long time way before Bush was president, in fact he was still a teenager in those days. Maybe if Muslims stopped committing acts of terrorism the world over like they have been doing for the last 30 years they would become a little more popular with the rest of us.

Oh no you don't! Any hatred of Muslims in this arena was brought on by the Muslims themselves and all your stupid propaganda to the contrary just doesn't wash.
Maybe it was the fact that 3,000 American civilians were murdered by Muslims on 9/11.
Or maybe it was the videos of Muslims around the world celebrating when they heard about it.
Maybe it was the Muslim attacks on all the various American military installations around the world.
Maybe it's the constant threats from that sawed-off little idiot running Iran.
Maybe it's the Muslim cells that are constantly plotting attacks on innocent civilians in places like Lackawanna, NY or Miami, Fl or in England or Denmark or where ever.
Maybe it's the murders committed because some dopey reporter somewhere dared publish a cartoon depicting Mohammad as a bomb-tosser.
President Bush didn't turn anyone against Muslims. they did that all by themselves with their dispicable behavior towards everyone who's not a follower of their beliefs.
Try the truth once in a while, you'll find it refreshing when you don't have to lie anymore.

Muslims have put a lot of effort into that themselves over the past 30 years by hi-jacking planes, holding and torturing prisoners, and showing the world that they would rather blow themselves up and take a few "infiedels" with them. Bush did not have to paint the Islamic community with a brush of fear, that is what the Islamic community has been advertising since the 1970's.

Bush didn't plant it there. Muslim extremists do a bang-up job of getting people to hate them by themselves. They don't need any help from Bush or anyone else for that.

Bush stole the White House not once but twice. He has succeed in making only 2 countries that will speak to us, He broke America, He started a War that was against our 2ND
Constitution , he has spewed hate all over the world. He is a President that should never have been, he runs around like idiot waving grabbing his wives hand telling her, WAVE,WAVE, WAVE. His IQ is the lowest of any sitting president a 91, over all his Presidency has ruined America. GOD BLESS AMERICA

Don't be dense.
He didn't plant any such thing. Any educated person in the US or in Europe, for that matter knows that individuals must be judged on their actions, not on the basis of skin color, religion, or creed.
People with less education may not be able to diffferentiate between "average Joe" Muslim and "Suicide Bomber" Muslim, and therefore mistrust all Muslims.
America has fought to prevent the genocide of Muslim people from the Baltic states to Somalia to Iraq, and we have been repayed in the form of cowardly terroristic bombings of ships and buildings killing thousands of innocent people.
When are the leaders of Islam going to speak out publicly opposing terrorism?

He didn't plan hatred that was already there. You need to understand the radical Muslims. Not all Muslims are full with hatred. Remember the one that are, are brainwash as children.

Muslim EXTREMISTS!
Let's not blame all of them now - we have Muslim politicians in the U.S., and they are just as fed up as the rest of us, and want to go back to work and live the good life.
Poor George just wanted to run out the terrorists and now we're on the verge of an all out holy war.
