Islamism - 7

[HareKrishna]

Muslim cleric speech:





"There is no doubt that jihad has become an inseparable part of Islam. Why? Because the Koran explains it in more than 100 verses. Even the Prophet Muhammad took part in 28 of more than 70 wars..."

Here we are again with the same old cognitive dissonance that we see again and again and again: Western authorities and Islamic spokesmen in America and Europe insist that Islam is peaceful, that jihad is a benign struggle for justice, and that those who claim that jihad is warfare (violent and stealthy) to spread Sharia are ignorant "Islamophobes." Yet again and again and again, those Muslims who claim openly that jihad means warfare against unbelievers in order to establish Sharia present themselves as representing the true teachings of the Qur'an and the full obedience to Muhammad's example. No one from John Brennan to Honest Ibe Hooper of CAIR has ever deigned to explain to us how it is that so many Muslims who study the Qur'an and devote themselves to implementing it misunderstand its message so drastically.
