How myopic of you. You mean to tell me you don't need to know what the tenets of Islam are before engaging in a debate?
At least admit knowledge is power. For example. What is 5:32 about? Do you know anything about verse 5:32? or the Talmud? Probably not, because you haven't researched it. How can you expect anyone to take you seriously if you can't be bothered to research your own claims? Cognitive dissonance much?
But It's not Christianity attacking the west right now. It's Islam. And it's not Christianity that is told to kill infidels. It's Islam.
You need to read the Quran. Then the biography, then some of the hadiths. Then cross reference everything with what is online and what the Scholars have to say in their divergence. THEN you can talk about Islam like you know something about it. Until then, sorry, you're just sadly uniformed.

I'll agree with you that no monotheistic religion is peaceful. Goes for Christianity. But It's not Christianity attacking the west right now. It's Islam.
But wasn't it Christians who sparked this whole thing off ?
The formation of Daesh can be traced back to the invasion of Iraq and toppling of Saddam , we are reaping what we have sown.

Matters less he was "Muslim" than a man who saw the right thing to do in the moment, and did it.
Like when a grenade lands at the feet of a group of soldiers and one of them falls on it, who cares what religion he practices?
Christians had nothing to do with it
Those close to Mr Bush say that day he discovered his life's mission.
He became convinced that God was calling him to engage the forces of evil in battle, and this one time baseball-team owner from Texas did not shrink from the task.

Tony Blair viewed his decision to go to war in Iraq and Kosovo as part of a "Christian battle", according to one of his closest political allies.

Muslims do cherry pick. I never said they don't. The drinking, gay, Westernized Muslims cherry pick and they are Kafirs and hypocrites as per the Quran. If you read it, then you would know this. As for ISIS, they are just as much Muslim as your neighbors. Are they not?
Also, the tenets (not tenants) of the book will give you INSIGHT into their political ideology. It will help you understand the 5 w's of what is going on in their heads. It's the ideology you need to understand. Not the people. Try not to confuse the two.
Not the Pope
Christians had nothing to do with it
And it was the George Soro's of the world and the "globalist" ideology that got this going.

You definitely have your head in the sand on this one.

Grammar police aside. You are so wrong it is not even funny. Try getting to know a few Muslims and you will find out how ignorant you are being. I don't need to know the intimate details of their political ideologies to know that Muslims can be compatible with the west and that most ARE compatible with the west. The only people who don't believe this are the haters who are looking for reasons to hate them.
A majority (51 percent) of Muslims surveyed said they "should have the choice of being governed according to shariah." Almost 30 percent of American Muslims believe it is legitimate to use violence "against those that insult the prophet Muhammad, the Qur'an, or Islamic faith."

so you have the magical powers to look at a group of say 100 Muslims and detect the three radicals among them by sight alone? Wow, you really are amazing.
No I'm saying that no one does. Just like you can't look at a group of black people and pick out the three that are going to rob a liquor store or at a group of Mexicans and pick out the murderers.
Show me where I've said Muslims in the west aren't Muslims.
I know where all the confusion is for the apologists. None of you have read the Quran and are trying to equivocate the actions of a few good people to be what is written in the Quran.
Here's food for thought. Not all ww2 Nazis were bad people.
