Wouldn't people living in a city bombed by a Western country consider themselves the victims of Western religious zealots?
Absolutely, and from my perspective, some western nations (in particular the US) do have the problematic tendency of voting Christian fundamentalists into positions of power.
There's a debate to be had how much of the blame for past actions should go to religion, and how much to worldly motivations, but there clearly was an element of that (remember Gog and Magog?).
But talking the long-term perspective, religious 'nones' are on the rise in the western world, even in the US.
