Good idea/bad idea.....


Because they CAN'T give them to us. They have no power over their people as is 100% apparent by the declaration of state of emergency earlier this week.

There is far more room for interpretation in their religion than Christianity (and that's saying a lot). Some see it as an "us vs. them" and start a religious war. Others don't see it quite that way but also think that their religion is the right one and it should take over the world. Ya know, like Christianity did in the first through fifth crusades. People put into power committing atrocities under a blanket of religious righteousness.

Btw, Muslims and Christians have been in a war pretty much forever over the holy land and it will never end until one is eradicated. I'm willing to bet it's pretty hard to live as a Muslim and support Christian benefiting world transitions. Kinda like the "Don't Snitch" scene going on in inner cities. People would rather deal with the shit and feel empowered to do something than have everything go on as usual.
