Maybe, but they were justified with religion. Manifest destiny?
Still not a majority, per se. One anecdote in a very regional setting.
I don't doubt that the majority of Christians are against fundamentalist Christians. All I'm saying is that just because you don't see Muslims demonstrating or speaking on TV about it, doesn't mean it isn't happening, in the US at least.
That is the most public instance available but it is still happening today. You claimed it was not.
Hitler believed in a Master Aryan race of Germanic peoples. If he did what he did in the name of Christianity why was he so harsh on the Polish who are a very Catholic nation?
And see my post above. If Muslims are protesting and it is not getting air time then that is a problem because the only side you see or hear is the ones committing the attrocities and terrorist attacks. Why are their protests not front and center on Al Jazera instead of the latest Al Qaeda tape?
