Are you Muslim or Christian?
KHOBAR, Saudi Arabia - "Are you Muslim or Christian? We don’t want to kill Muslims. Show us where the Americans and Westerners live," Islamic militants told an Arab after launching a shooting spree on Westerners in Saudi Arabia. The four gunmen, aged 18 to 25 and wearing military vests, grabbed Abu Hashem, an Iraqi with a U.S. passport, in front of his home in the Oasis compound in Khobar but let him go when he told them he was a Muslim. "Don’t be afraid. We won’t kill Muslims even if you are an American," he quoted them as saying.
This article illustrates the WOT problem very well. While the West is wringing its hands about whether or not it’s a violation of civil rights to force Muslim women to leave the veils at home when they get photographed for a driver’s license and Christian GI’s get a 6 week sensitivity training to Muslim customs before pushing off to Iraq’s hellhole to "liberate" peace loving Iraqi peoples [cough], terrorists are drawing the battle lines very clearly: the enemy is "infidels" and the good guys are Muslims.

You’ll notice that Al Queda makes no distinctions between radical Muslims or moderate Muslims or Republican Christians or Democrat Christians or practising Christians or fallen Christians. Muslims get the thumbs up even if they are American Muslims and Christians get their throats slashed. very simple.

Now if you are a Muslim and you know you are viewed as a good guy by OBL, what’s in it for you to help Christians whether you live in Baghdad or Detroit or Kabul?
