Thought of an analogy that might help separate the issues.
Guns are a tool that serves the purpose of its user. Whether it's to take a life or save one for instance. Guns can create a common bond and were important in enforcing order when civilization got a bit rocky. When a person uses a gun to kill a bunch of people, most rationale people blame the person who use a gun in a way that 99.9% of others never would. That person was probably crazy. After all, you know a bunch of people with guns and they would never do that. Hell, you have a gun and you'd never do that! Replace the word gun in the sentence above, with religion. OH SHI- For the record, I think religion is pretty silly. I've seen it do good and harm. The good correlates pretty exactly with wealth, health, and opportunity. I wonder if there are places where there is less of that...

The video doesn't say the environment encourages terrorism, in fact it mentions at least one of the encourager by name, al-Baghdadi.

Great posts riseagainstrocks.
The racism in this thread by a few is sickening.

Really? Muslim = Terrorist That's ****ing racism 101. Grow the **** up and learn how to look at the world's problems with complex glasses. I have many Muslim friends. **** you for stereotyping them. Nothing personal JTF. These types of attitudes just unnerve me in a very bad way.
