There's a big difference. Even in countries that are our "allies" muslim extremists are taught to hate America. These peace-loving muslims seem to be the silent majority. They rarely condemn acts that the rest of the world feels to be heinous. You don't see christians chopping heads off and videotaping it. And for all the liberal hatred of "whackjobs" they are infinitly more tolerant than the muslim whackjobs, who DO chop heads off.
And don't come back with some tired arguement like "christians are there now killing thousands, blah blah blah". If there were fighting against soldiers, or even targetting military targets they might get sympathy. But you can't justify killing someone like Margaret Hassan, who not only spent her life trying to help muslims and married one, but was against the war. Until there is some outcry in the muslim community about such acts, there is no comparison between Islam and Christianity, Judaism, Hindu, or any other religion.
