Notice how Muslims never criticize Islam?

Again, Mr. Khawla, name one region wherein Christians have moved in and demanded a separate Christian nation.

I named four, and you can't name one? And we're talking modern era here, not colonial times or ancient history when we did horrendously bad things too. We are finished with mea culpas in those eras -- you won't get political correctness sympathy on this site. We've admitted our crimes. You haven't. Muslims never do.

As to Bosnia, that region was, in fact, once Christian (just as Thailand, the Philippines and Kosovo had their own religions, before you ripped off their land for Muslim nations). Now you're barging into our culture demanding foot baths and time off at work for prayers and separate school systems and separate swimming pools and sharia law and... on and on. You're the obnoxious squatter who barges into my house demanding to live in one of my bedrooms, and when I kick you out you're...shocked!

You and your fellow squatters then demand free bedrooms (of mine)...as victims! And you're right, Mr. Khawla, the world is against Muslims...now. But you're wrong when you say it has always been so. Here in America I can assure you that for most Americans the word "Muslim" conjured up benign images of mystery, adventure and genies. I even had sympathy for Palestinians once. But 9/11 changed that, forever.

Today we are indeed against you, Mr. Muslim. And our numbers are growing as shills like you continue to educate us as to the Muslim state-of-mind after every assault (physical and cultural) that Islam inflicts on us. That state-of-mind, so well expressed by you: IT'S NEVER ISLAM'S FAULT and WE ARE VICTIMS. You are why Islam is a threat to our freedom, and that is why I shun you. I would cross the street to avoid being near you. Finally, Mr. Muslim: Jews lived in Israel three thousand years before the United Nations made is a sovereign nation. So, once again, you are a proven a cheap shill for a dangerous religion.
