Christians .= relative religion
war on terrorist = It is terror on terror. I feel it will cost a lot and not solve the problem . I still call for peace.
Terrorists = Satan
Saddam hanging = he is killer
USA = modern country
Americans in general = cool and nice people , I look at them with respect
Israel = no comment

Christians are our brethren in the Abrahamic faiths. One of the major significances of the title People of the Book given to Jews and Christians is that it differentiates Christians and Jews from non-believers of Abrahamic God, hence a sign of respect.

Terrorists particularly radical Islamists are people who have deviated from the true path and teachings of Islam. Muslims worldwide - scholars and commoners - condemn their actions as transgressions against the limits set out by God himself (http://www.muhajabah.com/otherscondemn.php)

Regarding Saddam's hanging, it should not had been done on the day of Eid al-adha as it was immensely disrespectful towards Islam and insensitive towards Muslims. In addition, Muslims also share the opinion that he should had been tried in an international tribunal for even people like him deserved a fair trial, which many believe was not granted.

I'm currently applying to study in US (will be taking SAT on January 27th) and thus, surely I love the States. Most Muslims if not all do. It's the administration's double standards and inherent bias in its foreign policy that we loathe so much. As long our Palestinian brothers and sisters' rights are not restored and as long as they live in insecurity, 1.5 billion Muslims will never stop supporting Hamas, which we see as a liberator rather than a terrorist group. Hamas is nothing like the condemned al-Qaeda. To say that they are similar is to say that apples and stones are similar. Concerning Americans, generally speaking, we think that their better judgment (surely not all of them) has been clouded by the media and bigotry against Islam and Muslims. This is vivid and it's demonstrated by the sacrilegious questions and answers posted here on a daily basis.

Israel? Well, I think I have answered that one before. But make no mistake, we respect the peaceful Jews. It's the Zionist regime that we despise.

Peace and Love

That is a lot to ask in one question. let me try to answer in short:

Christians: The true followers of Jesus are considered Muslim, the same way Abraham called himself in submission to one and only One Almighty God. The true followers of Jesus are the early followers who believed in One God and considered Jesus as a Prophet in human flesh to redirect the people to the teachings of Moses but not to change it. Then came Paul and others who interpreted Jesus message to fit their own feelings. See how trinity took formal affirmation against Unitarians when Emperor Constantine cast his lot with Trinitarians to strengthen himself politically. http://essenes.net/CouncilOfNicea.html

War on Terror: Except for a small number of Neocongelicals, the ‘War on Terror’ is globally considered as a “War of Terror’. The reason for this war is basically the same as Eisenhower warned against.
Also, see http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf
There is advocating here that if we have force why not use it in extending the global hegemony of the US. There are two ways to do that. Direct military attack on nations of choice that will serve the hegemony purpose, and to do it via the so called ‘War on Terror’. Both require a backup demonizing process through the mainstream media which unfortunately has been compliant because it is mostly owned by those who share the neocongelical view.
Terrorist: This is a very relative term. One people freedom fighter is another people terrorist. Most people are inherently decent and do not have worms in their head to go and kill innocent people. But it is happening. Could it not be possible that there are reasons for such action even though the actions are horrible? Is it not possible that the force binding a person to his religious and cultural values may be overcome by other forces caused by perpetual injustices and aggressions, murder of their children and elders, eviction from homes and towns, committed by those who are militarily more powerful to resist them by symmetrical means of resistance?

Saddam Hanging: Saddam was a tyrant and deserved a just punishment after an open and just hearing like the one in Nuremburg. The trial did not happen to bring all culprits to light like the ones who supported his aggression over the decades. The hearing was confined to limited cases, verdict announced and the assassination style hanging took place indicating vengeance than carrying the justice as well rushing to remove a witness to more crimes of his past masters.

USA: It is a good country at times when it is administered by decent people. Sometimes it goes into a bullying mood when administration is taken over by groups whose agenda may not be the same as the kind required for the benefit of the people. It has a good constitution but democracy norms are not in favour of the people. First, not every capable US citizen born to an American mom can run for Congress or Senate unless he is backed by those with a big purse and who will be extracting the price latter. If there is will, there is a way to change this.
Secondly, the lobby system hijacks the elected people who are most often forced, cajoled, blackmailed, bribed to do things that are against the interest of the people. This can be changed if there is will.

American in General: Having lived in America for a number of years, I know that American in general are every decent people. There are some with mediocre understanding of the rest of the world but it cold be because of the education system not giving any weight to the importance of this knowledge.

Israel: It always reminds people of a robber who may rob Peter to give it to Paul to compensate for wrong doing to Paul. It is an irony that the Jews enjoyed more than a millennium of peace and tranquility I the Muslim lands ( See this: http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/35741 ) whereas for centuries they were tormented in Europe. The burden of guilt probably became big after the Nazi atrocities in Europe so they help them settle in Palestine as if it was a vacant land like the American west waiting for settlers (like on Indian lands).
The rest of the world knows that it has been the overt and covert Anglo-American and neocongelical support that has kept the Zionists intransigence high to abort any international peace move toward the solution thinking that they can swallow the porcupine.
As long as this problem is not solved on a very just basis without Machiavellian moves, the world will not be a peaceful place.
