It's completely an oversimplification to say the issue is religion. Islam has been around for over a thousand years. It's one of the largest religions in the world. If it was true that the duty of all Muslims was to take over the world and kill all infidels, I can guarantee that over a billion people could make a much bigger boom then is currently being made. The West has been pissing on the Middle East for years and years. We treat the region like an oil well. We put Israel there and continue to support Israel - despite the fact they're no more moral then al-Qaeda. How can you argue things like this aren't major factors in this conflict? It's ignorant to say they're not and continue to point your finger at the Qu'ran.
