This is from a middle eastern point of view;

Mutual violent fighting with no justifiable cause is a routine way of life among Christian nations. Have we not seen it happen between Germany and France, UK and Russia, Italy and Austria, Bulgaria and Serbia, UK and Argentina throughout history? It is a sad affair but you cannot understand Christian root causes by analysing them with Islamic tools of analysis.

As a bonus, have not the two Christian culture countries, Russia and the USA, enough nuclear weapons to blow the world up ten times over.Violent wars and unethical violence is not an islamic monopoly it is the whole human race which needs to be civilised. Please put yourselves into the shoes of those you are criticising or at least look yourself in the mirror.
