I didn't "lump" you into anything, reread the WHOLE sentence again.
Quote:It's you who needs to face 'hte ******* truth.' The Qur'ran is a violent book and al-Quaeda is an Islamist organization which seeks to bring Jihad on the non-Muslim world because they are obligated to do so by Islam, I've given you examples of obviously unprovoked attacks before.
So you agree that muslims are not worth saving because they follow the Qu'ran, and are inherently evil. By your rational we are wasting our time in Iraq, and should return home, correct?
Because quess what? The extremist are not the only ones that follow the "evil" Qu'ran. Have you ever even read it? Or do you just buy the slop they put on your tray?
One of my favorite abused lines is...
"Any one who, after accepting faith in Allah, utters Unbelief, except under compulsion, his heart remaining firm in Faith - but such as open their breast to Unbelief, on them is Wrath from Allah, and theirs will be a dreadful Penalty." Surah 16: 106
this is always a good one for those that thinks the Qu'ran calls for jihad and DEATH to western christians.
Then from the bible...
31"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. 32All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

41"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels."
The only difference is that we undertand a concept that they will go to hell for their punishment, according to many, the muslims will strap on a vest bomb and deliver it to westerners.
Before anyone simply dismisses the hatred as religious belief, I seriously urge you to read documents and books dealing with our foreign policy dealings in the middle east since the CIA over through Muhammad Mosaddeq and why, in the 50's till our intervention with the muhjadeen in the afghanistan/soviet war. We have been ******* them around for decades.
