The majority of Muslims

I am willing arguendo, to subscribe to the notion that as a predominantly peaceful religion, the vast majority of Islamic adherents want peace. That means if ninety percent of the world's Muslims are opposed to all this terrorism (everything I have ever seen belies that notion: if it was 90% we'd see SOME Muslims somewhere protesting this insanity) there are only 120 million of them who would like to see an end to American dominance even if it means blowing us up in sky scrapers, on airplanes or in cafes! What a comforting thought. What OTHER religion or culture seriously discusses beheadings as a legitimate form of religious expression? GET REAL FOLKS... Islamism is a BIG problem! When they call us infidels and say they want to Islamisize the world, I think they mean it...no seriously...
