You mistaken me; don't expect any excuses from me for Christianity. That religion has had its fair share or wholesale genocide, ethnic cleansing, and bullshit. The New World was practically a victim of Christianity.
But, we're talking about today, now, 2015. Name one continent, besides Antarctica, that hasn't been victim of Islamic terrorism or intolerance in the last 10-50 years.
the current existence of islamic terrorism is a result of foreign policy, meddling in the middle east and support for israel in particular - i'd say with confidence that you won't find islamic terrorism to be a major issue in the decades preceding the creation of israel on palestinian land
that being said you shouldn't be quick to label a quarter of the earths population as the problem when it was the west that created this problem and it's their responsibility to bridge the gap and find a peaceful solution - the establishment of a palestinian state would be a big step towards resolving this matter
as for islam itself it's a comparatively younger religion and will go through the same stuff christianity went through to become the waterred down remnant of itself that it is today
