Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Kim Jong-Il, Mussolini, Than Shwe.Jeffery Dahmer, Israel Keyes,Ted Kaczynski.Et cetera.A few radicals, desperate people, fanatics, or however you want to put it still do not match the vast majority of good people, atheist or religious, that you don't hear about because they did nothing wrong.A lot of those young men Al-Qaeda and the Taliban send to fight are rounded up from villages and basically forced to fight, or fighting for them pays a lot better than any other opportunity they had. I've read more than one convincing argument that it's very similar to someone being born in a disenfranchised intercity neighbourhood being pressed into a gang, with very similar causes and reasons. It's not always about religion. People have the capacity for truly horrible things, faith or no faith. At least you admit you have strong bias about the matter, a lot of people in your shoes don't or even acknowledge that maybe, just maybe, they might have it wrong.

Take it how you want to, in my opinion Islam is a problem. Sure those leaders and psychos you mentioned were terrible indeed but the most recent act was the Unibomber? I dunno i think its trying to compare apples to oranges.
