Bac the chief problem I have with your view is that it is so damn short sighted from a historical perspective. Islamic terrorism isn't new. In fact it predated the colonization of the Western hemisphere by at least 300 years. You ever hear of the hashishin from which the English word assassin ultimately derives? Mohhamed was a warrior every bit as much as a prophet, 5 of the first six Caliphs were mudered by other followers of Islam, and all of them were generals as much as religious leaders except possibly Mohhamed's immediate succesor who died too soon after taking the office for any one to be sure.
And lets not forget the doctrine of abnegation as seen in the Hadiths, which are at least as important to one's understanding of Islam as the Koran itself, and in which most of the worst doctrine's appear to be at least reinforced when not created out of whole cloth, pretty much means you can ignore whatever verses within the Koran you wish and take which ever one's you wish. Hence Osama doctrine of ever lasting war with the infidels is as justified as the view of those claiming that Followers should live in peace as the situation permits.
I do not hate all followers of Islam or for that matter any follower of Islam but I'd sure as hell like to know which version of Islam he follows before he moves in next door!
