Actually, there were far more people in Roma, Madrid and London
than in Paris.

There would be no war.

denounce terrorism, and I can show you a long list of violent
acts done by christians.

Excuse me. 1.4 millenia.

I'm glad we can agree on something.

Um, I think you need to read that again. You missed it.

No. But why did you just mention France, when the protest was
worldwide?

Really?

Germany had a powerful army and innovative strategies and
tactics. Iraq doesn't.

True.

Some Muslims are. Crusades and Inquisition were done under the
Pope command, while the 9/11 crimes were done by an independent
group. This group finds support in a significant portion of the
Muslims, but still, it cannot be said that Mulsims, as a whole,
have committed the 9/11 crimes.

Everybody has to defend themselves from them.

And you did see them? I didn't see Isreali bulldozers coming into
Palestinian territory to build Israeli buildings under protection
from the Isreali army, too. Neither did I see Ariel Sharon
voluntarily putting an end to the peace process by ostensibly
going to a Muslim sacred place.

I don't personally have an opinion here, since I haven't seen sufficient
evidence either way to form one. However, if you are to make such
accusations, I think perhaps a few quotes from a such an available book to
back up your argument wouldn't go amiss.

From all I know of the contents of the Koran(which is very little indeed),
there is little or no mention of the necessity of violent and murderous ways
as part of the religion. I know that these have crept into subsets of the
religion for sure, but where this has occurred is important, as someone who
adheres to the ways of a non-violent book may then find themselves wrongly
accused of violent and murderous beleifs when these interpretations have
been added only by certain subsets of people who base their religious
beleifs on the Koran.
