Bees?

"The Muslim religion keeps spreading like killer bees. ...:

Christianity, a religion with the most barbaric history, is spreading everywhere due to billions of dollars that are spent to evangelize the world -- like in Africa in the past 50 years. What are Christian missionaries doing in Iraq? Shoving their religion on educated hungry and poor -- like they did in Africa? Why aren't you whining about that too?

What did you do to them? How about mocking their religion in newspapers? How about 300 years of colonialism, wars (like the war for Algerian independence in 1960s -- one million killed). How about colonizing Palestine and importing European Jews there? Would that have happened if Britain was not the colonial power at that time? How about supporting with billions of dollars everything Israel does (including violations of UN resolutions -- same excuse used to invade Iraq) -- plus, land confiscation, middle of the night arrests, home demolitions, etc. How about threatening Iran while Israel is the only country in the region with the nuclear weapons? How about illegal invasion of Iraq based on a lie of WMD? How about US congressman suggesting that the US should nuke Islamic religious sites like Mecca?
