"7) The world's conservative Christian community has brought this upon themselves... by being or supporting murderous psychopaths, by promoting mostly bullshit religious dogma that may not actually be part of the bible, and by being some of the most Xenophobic of all cultures the world has ever seen."
And it would make as much sense. Which is not a lot really, as from your argument it is surely also fine to persecute people dressed even slightly like americans, in those countries which america has attacked, if it is fine to persecute people wearing headscarves, for an extremist attack over a decade ago.
Also, if you want to round up the litany of death from dogma, athiest states have been just as destructive as religious ones over the past hundred years or so.
[edit] I have personally have found that generic religious/philosophic affiliation (Buddhist, Athiest, Christian, etc) seems to have very little bearing on if someone will be a dickhead, and also that all large affiliations seem to have their fair share of them. Claiming rationality about the lack of evidence for god, for instance, does not make people necessarily any more rational in other spheres, and also it doesn't automatically make them any nicer.
