lebell...fascinating that you skip right past the shah. That era of government makes the selling of fanaticism to the people possible. Islam has both existed as a empire, and as a diaspora...oppressor and oppressed. frankly, your reading of the situation is rather misleadingly simple.
"only if you paid a tax" Duh. What do you think Christendom did to the Jewish diaspora?
violence is a *human* problem, not just an islamic/christian/jewish/whatever one.
