I think you have it backwards, millions of Muslims around the world are telling you that you must convert to Islam or they will get you. They call the murder of an infidel Martyrdom not murder, but hey, whats a few letters when your getting you head cut off, and it beats drinking cyinide laced kool aid.
That said, most of the Muslims I know seem like decent people who just happen to hate and distrust Jews (I can't imagine why that would be so). Everyone has their own bias's and bigtry, it's just not everyone articulates it as well as a ranting crowd on the West Bank. Even the blogbaba doesn't like everyone.
The BBC is still a news agency, with laws governing truth and content. American media have no legal reason to respect the truth, Reagan removed the public protection laws from the books and made it legal to lie for ratings 20 years ago in the U.S.
Reasonable people do what we are able, the rest is up to God.

Awwwww, poor little, picked on Muslims in America. Why don't they speak out against the terrorist acts some of their fellow Muslims do?
Maybe if they spoke out against the be headings, killing of elderly people, and bombing of pizza parlors, Americans wouldn't be so "out to get them".
Think of the recent killings here in the U.S. by "Muslims"....the kid in NC that drove his rented SUV into a crowd of college students, the kid in Utah recently that shot up a shopping mall, then answer your own question.

Its a combination of things.
When the USA was dropping papers explaining that the USA wasnt after the common citizen what happened. Saddam sent out is guard who put on hazmat suits and told the people that the paper had contact poison on it and not to touch them.
Islam doesnt agree with women having many rights and women are largely free to do what they will in western culture. I have had a pakistani exhange student, as well as my former Iranian martial arts instructor tell me that they were disgusted at what women were allowed to get away with.
( my former karate instructors wife, who was an american, left him for a 17 year old kid btw. she was about 34 at the time and had a 14 year old daughter. )
Also there are the idiots who spread the hate toward middle easterners out of their own paranoid fear i guess.
I have a friend who's father and uncle live in Jordan. He visits his father once a year and says he quit trying to tell them that Americans dont all hate them, they just refuse to listen to any reason.

Muslims are killed by radical fanatic isloma fascists period.
Muslims who believe in peace and coexistence of religions have nothing to fear.
Considering there are 1.5 billion Muslims and 1 pct are radicals .
The Western World has a legitimate concern. Besides.. moderate Muslims do not speak up and make their case, thus they allow the bad apple of their faith and cultural to flourish.

They believe that any action taken against middle eastern countries means an attack on Islam.
P.S Check out the history of Islam before the Crusades.You might found out that they weren't as innocent as you think they are (;

I imagine it is a sign of the times. Most groups of people have felt the same way at some time or another.....the paranoid ---the Irish, Blacks, Jews, Italians, gays, the disabled. It looks as though everyone gets their turn....sooner or later....

I know I don't want to go get them...well I think it's sort of a propoganda thing by some of their radical leaders who are out to get US and by making their followers believe that blindly, no one will question trying to hurt us. Americans generally want to help people, I think, we're never out to get anyone. Well, Bush might be and I think the war is making things worse, but what I want to know is why no one is bringing up the Crusades we had against the muslims a thousand years ago. We've done horrible things to them in the past, why shouldn't they be angry?

They probably have listened to American propaganda chanels like FOX that constanly reminds us how evil they are. And other blowhards like Bimbo Limbaugh who never points out that the Bush admin' is equally as evil. I don't want to get anyone either, I feel the world would be much better if all people worked harder at being friendlyer to one another.

Oh, I don't know. It could be the "Shock and Awe" bombs, hundreds of thousands of dead Muslims in Iraq, or American troops occupying their holy lands. Or could it be all of the threats that Bush has been making toward Muslim nations and leaders?
Mind you, I'm not necessarily saying that none of the above is unwarranted, but are you serious when you say that you can't understand why they would feel threatened?
