I'm sorry, but I really don't think you can make that broad a statement about "most" of the wars and "human unrest" throughout history being caused by or involving Muslims. In the last 60 years or so, there has been a lot of unrest in that part of the world where the majority of people practice the Muslim religion, but they were not involved in WWI or WWII, or Vietnam, nor were they part of the wars fought over territory here in the United States, or the wars fought between England & France during the middle ages.
They were not with Napolean when he tried to conquer the world, or with the Romans who DID conquer the world, so I think you are putting too much blame on a group of people who are no worse than any other group of people. Most of the problems blamed on the "Muslims" is being caused by a small radical faction of muslims, and their actions are not supported in large part by the other 90% of the followers of Mohammed.
The religious group who has probably suffered the most injustices for literally centuries are the Jews, which historical evidence will support.
You might benefit from another stroll through the wars of this world.

Muslims have been subjected to no more injustice in this world then any other race, religion or nationality.
The people killing the most muslims today are ..... muslims!
Worldwide organizations have donated to the palestinian people billions of dollars, yet the many people still live in shacks with no running water or electricity. WHY?
Well, we KNOW that millions of dollars was found in Yasser Arafat's swiss bank accounts when he died and the majority of it was returned to the Palestinian Authority.
With those billions of dollars donated for the relief of the palestinians, they could have given each family 100k and they could go out and build a nice home, start a business, or move somewhere safer, but it is in the interests of the muslim radicals and the palestinian terror groups to keep their people poor and uneducated. Rich people or well educated ones dont walk into a pizzeria or school bus and explode a bomb in it.

If you study history you will find that almost all 'civilizations' were, at one time or another, involved in migrating, colonization, etc. This usually, [but not all the time], involved wars.
Unfortunately, religion and religious traditions in almost all cultures are usually one of the reasons for wars, [ie: crusades, inquisitions, etc. is one example which involved at least 2 of the traditional and well-known established traditions].......
In ancient Egypt the early predynastic and Early Dynastic war lords, when becoming leaders of a large group, would also make their 'favorite' deity the most important one worshipped...[ie: Heru Ur (Greek 'Horus') Asur (Greek 'Osiris'),Aset,(Greek 'Isis'), Nekhbet, Ht Hor, (Greek Hathor) Ra, Khenti Amentiu, Amun, Aton/Aten, etc....They had many civil wars which may or may not have been specifically about 'religion' per se.
As you will find out, wars are mostly about land, and trade routes, [ie: money and power]....religion may be what they tell the 'little guy' who is fighting, but those in power want more of the above....... and use those who can be brain-washed into believing their line to fight....

faith is purely an excuse. The Crusades have been fought interior the call of religion. Early Christians have been persecuted via the Romans and, failing to make the main of this lesson, now be at liberty to persecute others of distinctive faiths. incredibly religious human beings of any faith are actually not those combating. . . it incredibly is all enthusiasts who're unable to tolerate any variety who're inflicting the themes. And a minimum of contained on the subject of Iraq, faith exchange into the only concern that exchange into preserving the peace until Bush took out Saddam Hussein. there exchange into an uneasy stability between the three religious sects, yet with Hussein long gone, the steadiness is long gone and the killing is uncontrolled. quite than ban religions, we could continually ban hypocrisy. you could not declare to be religious in case you foment wars and hate human beings of different faiths. that must be a capital offense.

Funnily enough, the word 'Muslims' was heard once in a blue moon when I was growing up (70s and 80s). Don't mistake today's fashion for an ancient trend. Arab nationalism was not the religion-drunk movement it is now... it has become that since 1980, in large part thanks to the CIA.
All religions tend toward violence- having God on your side is an all-purpose way for evil men to get ordinary men to do evil. Any monotheistic religion is, by definition, intolerant of others. So it is little wonder that Christianity and Islam are the enduring sources of extreme violence. The Jews are also monotheistic, but they are not determined to get everyone into heaven, just the 'chosen few'. So they have not killed nearly as many as the others. The multi-god Hindus and semi-pacifist Buddhists do get violent sometimes, but they don't have intolerance woven into the fabric of their Old Books.
But don't get 99% of the way to solving the problem, and then just blame the Muslims.

Europeans, British, Russians, Japanese, Chinese, Americans, Moguls... so many races were indulged in wars... in fact in the ancient times, fighting wars was the prime profession in addition to farming...

I can't wait to see the Muslim responses. All will say something like "America sucks" "It's never our fault", and etc.
