“first of all”, maybe you ought to listen to any of the radical Islamists who are Islamic terrorists (like Bin Laden, Zawahiri, Adam Ghadahn or any of the suicide bombers that made videos before they blew themselves up)- because they QUOTE THE KORAN in their justification for their actions.

The Koran says to instill ‘terror into the hearts of the unbelievers’. If you bothered to do any research on the subject (but of course you wouldn’t because you’re a perpetual adolescent who yearns for freedom FROM responsibility), you’d find out that a) the Koran commands the ummah *all muslim believers* to wage war against the unbelievers and cut their heads off-and that b) not all religions are the same – and that c) Islam is the only religion that demands unbelievers submit to Islam as second class citizens.

In fact, Islam MEANS submission!

Perhaps you ought to find out about the plight of people who are not Islamic who are persecuted in Islamic countries under sharia…and listen to their stories firsthand.

Oh, but doing that might involve some EFFORT, LOL…

But then of course that would mean you would have an open mind, which of course you do not…as demonstrated by your comment. Read the whole article here-Islam-Terrorism, Inc. – Part I

As the Koran is supposed to be timeless and universal, the verses in it hold true even today and are used everyday by pious Muslims to justify their brutal and terrorist activities.

1. (Koran 8:12) “Remember Thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): “I am with you: give firmness to the believers, I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, Smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger tips of them.”

In the above verse the great prophet of Islam, Mohammed, is giving step by step instructions on how to torture and kill the unbelievers if they don’t follow Islam. He is clearly instructing Muslims to commit cold-blooded murder in the name of religion.

2. (Koran 2:216) “Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you; but it may happen that you hate a thing which is good for you and it may happen that you love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, you knew not.”

The above verse was stated by Mohammed after his first terrorist attack. He and his followers mercilessly massacred four innocent and unarmed merchants at Nakhla in 623 AD. The massacre came in January, the sacred month of Rejeb. Arabs regard this month as a sacred month, when warfare and violence is forbidden. Since this barbaric criminal act was led and sanctioned by the “great” prophet Mohammed, we can conclude that Islam’s sacred activities include loot and cold-blooded murder of innocent individuals. The very beginnings of Islam are stained with the blood of innocents.

By stating the above verse, Mohammed completely absolved himself from all blame for having murdered innocents.

Yeah, I’ve read it…at least some of the parts that encourage killing the unbelievers wherever you find them.

Then there’s also the part where lying for the sake of furthering Islam is accepted, al takeyya, and the cultural part of Islam where killing female family members for “honor” is acceptable, and where men’s testimony is worth more than a woman’s in a sharia court.

Plaut:

Aminah Beverly McCloud, the Director of the Islamic World Studies Program (IWSP) at DePaul, is an apologist for and follower of Louis Farrakhan. Her courses feature anti-American propaganda texts. She was a signatory to a document denouncing the Patriot Act and imploring U.S. authorities to grant Tariq Ramadan permission to enter the country.

In case people aren’t familiar with Tariq Ramadan, Thomas Ryan fills it in:

Being a black Muslim,

Which you obviously don’t dispute,

McCloud has often found herself to be at odds with Middle Eastern Muslim Immigrants. “In their pursuit of the American dream and whiteness,” McCloud has remarked, “the new arrivals have largely ignored African-American Muslims, and have assumed that they can impose their own understanding of Islam on African-Americans.”

That is a direct quote from the woman herself. I don’t see you providing anything other than FEELINGS. I’m providing links and referrals to others who have written about her. If you could provide links to back up that what I’m quoting isn’t true, I’m certainly interested. I surely wouldn’t want to ‘offend’ with hyperbole or invective.

A devotee of the Nation of Islam, McCloud has noted that the organization must impose a greater leadership role in the social, spiritual, and political aspects of Black “mainstream” culture. McCloud has said that the Nation of Islam must define what Islam is within the American culture, “because there is an impetus in this country for the immigrant community to define what is Islam, and they’re very adamant.”

Despite her misgivings towards foreign-born Muslims, McCloud has, on occasion, extended her support to them. In 2004, she was a signatory to a document denouncing the U.S. Patriot Act and imploring U.S. authorities to grant Tariq Ramadan permission to teach at Notre Dame. Ramadan, grandson of Hasan al-Banna, the founder the Muslim Brotherhood, and a professor of Philosophy in France, was asked by Notre Dame to be the University’s Luce Professor of Religion, Conflict and Peacebuilding at the school’s Kroc Institute. The Department of Homeland Security barred his entrance into the U.S., citing a law that denies entry to foreigners who have used a “position of prominence within any country to endorse or espouse terrorist activity.”

And McCloud also says the Moorish Temple is a branch of Christianity, which, of course, is false.

There are lots of lies being spread around…it’s important that they be differentiated clearly from the truth.

Sweetness and Light has also put these things in print, but then, of course, you didn’t bother to click on the links in the post.

Too anxious, I suppose, to demonize whitey.
