Could atheist westerners, please explain?

I'd like to point out for the record that I was born in south Texas, so I'm kinda yanking my own chain, there.

But it was more fun to poke some fun at Thump, because I know he's good-natured like that.

Now, when I do go get that Remington ...

Hmm. Still waiting to hear what this has got to do with atheists.

So far this is "Well (some) Jews are as bad as (some) Muslims!"

Are "atheists" considered to have one unified opinion on all this, or what?

You won't find too many atheists who are big fans of Israel. That said, The Arabs helped create this monster by trying to wipe them out when all they wanted was to be left alone.

Honestly, I wouldn't shed a tear if a large meteor wiped out the entire Middle East. I think the cultural loss would be worth removing what I see as a big set of mental chains that hold back the human race as it tries to grow up.

What cultural loss? <snark>

For all the culture which Muslims have continually been destroying since al-Ghazali, it wouldn't make much difference.

and the conclusion?
Let's give the terrorist a nobel prize !

You're oddly silent about Arafat winning a Nobel Peace Prize.
