Even as brutal and totally unneccesary as this murder was, these are radical fanatics who are responsible, who have their own agenda, not the entire muslim community as some may have you want to believe.

Oh, I believe the Muslim community in general doesn't like this execution one bit. That's not what I'm talking about. It's the Arab/Muslim *media* that I'm concerned about. They seem to me to be rather biased, even a supposed "independent" media source like Al-Jazeera. They're worse than Fox at times, and there doesn't appear to be any moderate voice out there. One can see the effect this has on the Arab population as a whole, with hatred of the "evil" US at an all-time high, even when the US is trying to *help* the Iraqi people.
They only seem to see the bad things, and the good things are ignored; but that's probably universal for big media organizations.
