Let's face it.
We can push blame on so many individuals and groups going back centuries and further.
Has the West interfered in the Middle East? Yes.
The crusades? There was also the Muslim invasions of Europe.
Where do we draw the line in trying to justify (wrong word, I know) the actions of these scum?
Do we go as far back as Alexander the Great? He did, after all, bring down the Persian Empire as a united entity.
War has been a constant in that regions for millennia. Many of them, and some of us, may blame Western interference in the region, but they've been killing each other for just as long, if not longer, than we've been interfering there.
We can play the blame game as much as we want. What we have to find, however, is a unified way of stopping it and curing the root cause.
As to pedos, while it is rampant in the Catholic church, and many of the leaders moved to protect those involved and cover it up, it is also rampant within many other religions and sects. Catholicism has a unified leadership that most of the world's Catholics look to. Most protestant sects do not recognise a central authority, apart from their divine friend, with each sect and group having it's own leadership. As such it's much harder to push blame on one group.
Not justifying what happens within the Catholic church, just pointing out that it's not ONLY the Catholic church where this shit happens.
