You can't compare one nutjob killing a doctor to an organized movement who's aim is to eradicate everyone who's not Muslim......

You have just backed up my claims for me - even with those selected verses - read them more carefully, refusal to submit to Islam = fighting Islam = legitimate target = the whole infidel world = what they have been doing for 1400 yrs!
You see how it violates scripture ? This is the problem with alot of muslims today , They hardly know there own scripture and religion. Its the preachers who bend it to suit there agenda . The quotes dont lie
Does Islam recommend or justify killing of disbelievers or those who decide to leave the religion? The answer is an emphatic "No". God makes it very clear in the Quran, that there is no compulsion in religion (2:256). Free will is one of God's precious gifts to humanity, and human beings cannot take away what God gave man. If someone does not wish to believe, they are to be left alone and not forced in any manner. A submitter's (muslim) job is simply to invite people to God's religion with kind enlightenment (16:125

Well I know the problem with a lot of western apologists for Islam is that they have been fed a whitewashed version of it by the muslims they talk to.
Take that 'no compulsion in religion' verse - are you not aware of the distinction between Meccan and Medina verses?
In Mecca Mo was all sweetness and light - trying to get the jews to accept him as their new prophet, he managed to recruit about ten followers a yr, until they ejected him.
He then went to medina where he preached jihad and intolerance and began bandit raids rewarding his followers with the booty,slaves etc - he attracted followers by the thousand!
The Meccan verses are ABROGATED by the later Medina verses - did you not realise that? - or were you just trying to pull the wool over our eyes?

I believe IMHO we have a great deal more to fear from our own oppressive government that uses a small group of Muslim extremists as an excuse than anything else.
There are indeed Muslim extremists and there will continue to be as long as the US government continues with an imperialist foreign doctrine. How would we feel if say Chinese troops were in the US, "to save us from our evil government?" I'm not saying I'm ok with terrorism but I understand the anger and ignorance that breeds the behavior.
Now with all that being said, most of these people are broke, uneducated, small groups, on the other side of the world.
The US government, which uses them as an excuse to take away my rights under the ILLUSION of better security, is right here, all around us.
I do not fear what these people, in their ignorance and frustration can do. I do fear what is being done in their name.

You can really tell how they dulled down on the propaganda. While this video is fake for many different reasons, the lack of resistance on the part of the prisoner, the editing a moment before his head is removed, the fake looking head with the extremely small amount of blood dripping out of it, however it is still more exciting then what they are pumping out these days: Bin laden decrying man made global warming. Sheesh. The war on terrorism is becoming the war of retardism.
however, compare the amount of damage terrorists and insurgents have done in total, to the British/American tag team combo on Afghanistan and Iraq..it's really nothing.

So you advocate continuing to push an agenda of fear towards Muslims?
Did you read the name of this site? (Abovetopsecret) Did you read the motto of this site? (Deny Ignorance)
This isn't Red State, Conservapedia or any of those ridiculous right-wing nutter sites.
Refusing to engage in fear tactics against Muslims does not make one a support of fundamentalism.
In other words, despite what your math book told you, 2+2 does not equal 5.edit on 31-12-2010 by The Sword because: (no reason given)
