America holds double standards. Its "democracy" doesnt exist. I think we would've been better off with a dictator. I dont know what Americans brag about when it comes to their country. They, not the people of America but the government, go around killing innocents in the name of democracy and even support the killings in other countries(Israel,Syria). Most of the money America lends is to Israel. If America was really worried about "helping the world" they would go to some place that actually needs help, like Africa. More money is given to Israel then the entire continent of Africa. What does that mean? That means that America is careless when it comes nations is need. They just want to gang up on Muslim nations because they are a threat. As for the comment on how Muslims dont respect the Bible... yes we do. We just believe that if a "Holy" book is written by man, then nothing about it is holy. The Quran on the other hand are the words of God. It has never been changed. It is you that holds no respect for us.
