RELIGION OF PEACE

Some Muslims suggest that Islam is a religion of peace, in spite of the clear historical record, as well as the fact that virtually everywhere in the world today we find murder, mayhem and misery, we find Islam to be the cause. Some Muslims suggest they are only supposed to fight against those that fight against Mohammed and his "Allah", and some (western) Muslims may even have been deceived into believing this is true, however the truth is obvious. From Mohammed's murder of poets and slaughter of Jewish tribes (sexually enslaving one Jewess himself) to the imperialistic conquest of the First Islamic Jihad murder, rape, pillage and plunder all the way up to Tours France and Vienna Austria.

The only way a non-muslim would have found Islam "peaceful" is if one was willing to voluntarily turn his property, livestock, and everything he had worked his whole life for, over to them, hand over his wife (video) and 9 year old (video) daughter (video) to be pressed into sexual slavery, and to submit willingly to being enslaved by a jizya, or humiliation tax, to finance the Islamic goal of subjugating even more free people through imperialistic conquest (and be slapped across the face each time he pays the tax to reinforce who his masters are).

Of course if folks chose instead, to protect their property and family from the imperialistic Islamic onslaught, then they would be "fighting against Allah and his Messenger" and thus, even as apologists for Islam must agree, fair game for slaughter.

When reading Islamic literature, or listening to Islamic speakers that suggest that Islam teaches not to kill "innocent" people, it is important to understand the part they are leaving out. In Islam, no non-muslim is innocent - all non-muslims are guilty. (video)

Surah 9.29 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 30 The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!

In Indonesia 3 teenage girls were beheaded on their way to their Christian school and one of their heads left on the steps of a Church.  The note left behind reads:  "We will murder 100 more Christian teenagers and their heads will be presented as presents."

"Once again, women are the targets. In mid-March, rebels assaulted three women gathering firewood and cut off their ears, lips, and breasts."  
"Starting in 2003, Janjaweed Arabs, a Sudan-backed militia, have driven 2 million villagers from their homes in ethnic-cleansing attacks designed to suppress local rebels."

"Eyewitness accounts detailing the militia attacks are horrifying. "They killed my 3-year-old son right in front of my eyes," one father from West Darfur said. Since last fall, women have reported more than 500 rapes. Three women said five militiamen beat and raped them last August. The women said, "After they abused us, they told us that now we would have Arab babies. And, if they would find any [more] women, they would rape them again to change the color of their children.""

AP - December 06, 2006 MOGADISHU, Somalia - "Residents of a southern Somalia town who do not pray five times a day will be beheaded, an Islamic courts official said Wednesday, adding the edict will be implemented in three days."

In the U.S. "Mo Hassan, founder of Bridges TV, a station whose mission was "fostering understanding between cultures and diverse populations," cut off the head of his wife, Aasiya Hassan, 37, who had recently filed for divorce." NBC originally reporting on it now remaining considerably silent about it. Local TV - Fox - more'

"Rand Abdel-Qader, 17, was killed by her father after falling in love with a British soldier"
Though she had no sexual relations with the man she told a girlfriend she was in love with him. When her father found out he threw her down, stood on her neck and started to stab her to death. Her brothers came running to her rescue, but when their father told them what he had discovered, they helped him kill her.
Her uncles were said to have spat on her body at the funeral.
       That was just one of over 81 women "honor" killed in Basra, for the year, by November 2008.
Honor killings Islam

The folks at TheReligionOfPeace.com have logged over 12,000 deadly Islamic terror attacks, around the world, just since 9-11.

Take a moment to consider the demographics of the Islamic Empire:


Ishaq:288-9 "Allah divided the booty stolen from the first caravan after he made spoils permissible. He gave four-fifths to those He had allowed to take it and one-fifth to His Apostle. Muhammad summoned the Muslims and said, 'This is the Quraysh caravan containing their property. Go out and attack it. Perhaps Allah will give it to us as prey."

Bukhari:V5B58N702 "Allah did not admonish anyone who had not participated in the Ghazwa (raid) of Badr, for in fact, Allah's Apostle had only gone out in search of the Quraysh caravan so that he could rob it. But Allah arranged for the Muslims and their enemy to meet by surprise. I was at the Aqabah pledge with Allah's Apostle when we gave our lives in submission, but the Badr battle is more popular amongst the people. I was never stronger or wealthier than I was when I followed the Prophet on a Ghazwa.'" (video)

Considering the extent and scope of this Second Islamic Jihad as a global phenomenon, it would be preposterous to suggest that Israel or Zionism is the reason. Islam has nurtured a hatred for Jews from back when Mohammed slaughtered them. Indeed the Mufti of Jerusalem was hand in hand with Hitler in genocide of Jews. (video)

If we are to believe that Zionism is the reason for Islamic violence, then how is the imperialistic conquest of nearly the whole known world, during the Islamic First Jihad to be explained? The pillage, plunder, sexual enslavement and theft of the property of others didn't stop until the Battle of Tours way up in France, and in Vienna Austria. Those battles proved the death-knell of the Islamic First Jihad. Indeed Islamic forces were so heavily laden with plundered goods by the time they got to Tours France, that the cumbersome burden impeded their escape from their defeat.

No, these folks are simply doing their best to please their Allah:

Allah's Apostle said, "You (i.e. Muslims) will fight with the Jews till some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, 'O 'Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.'" (video) Sahih Bukhari Hadith Volume 4, Book 52, Number 176 - Sunna: Sahih Muslim Book 041, Number 6985) USC had to remove this "inspired" Islamic hadith as hate speech, but does not repudiate it).

More popular paraphrase: “Jews will hide behind the rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: oh servant of Allah, oh Muslim, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!”  (video)

And for non-believers in general:

Sura 8:12 I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them  

Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Sura 9:5  But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war);...

John 13:35 By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Sura 9:123  O ye who believe! fight the unbelievers...

Matthew 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits.

The killing of non-Roman Catholics by the Roman Cathoilic Church was specifically UNChristian for which that church eventually apoligized. (more on the subject)


ISLAMIC JIHAD

We can see directly from the Quran where some Muslims readily find the verses to support attacks against innocent men, women and children. While apologists for Islam suggest that innocent people are not appropriate targets for Islamic murder, the fundamentalist Muslims in the cradle of their religion, that GET Islam, and commit these crimes, and imams even in England will state flat out, that NO non-Muslim is innocent. Taqiyyah, or Islamic subterfuge, or lying in the way of Allah is one of the justifications for

From the Islamic First Jihad to Ahmadinejad - "Do not doubt Allah will prevail, and Islam will conquer mountaintops of the entire world.”

It has always been the dar el salaam, or house of peace - that is the Islamic empire, conquest of the dar el harb, or house of war. If you are a non-Muslim you may not be at war against Islam, but Islam has been at war against you for 1400 years.

"The Sword is the key of heaven and hell; a drop of blood shed in the cause of Allah, a night spent in arms, is of more avail than two months of fasting and prayer; whoever falls in battle, his sins are forgiven, and at the day of judgment his limbs shall be supplied by the wings of angels and cherubim."
