Taking your example, a man who rapes and murders a kid is no worse than someone who shoplifts

Yup, great argument. NOT. No, that is not what is being said.
What is actually being said is more along these lines: The man that sent another man to murder innocent civilians of a nation that DID NOT attack us is just as guilty as the acting party. In other words, everyone who LIED about the reasons for this war are guilty of murder in the first.

Yet you believe this progaganda spewing that 'THEY' hate us. Just like the Afghans and Iranians do! The only reason they are STARTING to hate us is because they see US murdering innocent people in their countries.

Please define "islamofacism"
Are you trying to say that all muslims are dedicated to the annihalation of those who oppose them?
Are are you talking about the comparitive handfull of fanatics who are fed up of western interference in their affairs and their countries?
BTW this western interference goes back many decades - right back to the british empire in fact, who took what was a part of iraq (kuwait) and made it a separate state for political and economic purposes - and on the subject of the british empire, let's not forget the Raj.
Or would you rather talk about the US overthrowing the democratically elected government of Iran and installing a puppet (the shah) to do their bidding.
I rather think you might be the ignorant one here - do yourself a favour, and look past the bush-isms and see what has gone on in the past to make these people so pissed off with certain western nations.

You think these are Bush-isms? Bush is in office since a few years, Islam and its fascist agenda exists since a thousand years. Their brand of terror started decades before Bush came into office.

Complete and utter rubbish - for one, islamofacism is a recently MADE-UP word, and one used with great frequency to justify economic imperialism and support for the genocidal israeli regime.
