The first rule for any fight is to know who you are fighting. Since the attack on 9/11 we have heard many opinions on who we are fighting and why. We have also been told by some that this is a clash of cultures.

      The latest "buzz word" is Islamafacists. This bears more scrutiny and study. Islamic appologists, state that Islam has been "hijacked", and that Islam is a religion of peace. The term "jihad" means struggle, not to make war. Nothing could be further from the truth. I took at face value these statements, until someone who's name I can not remember now said read the Qu'ran and you will see. I did just that, along with a few more source such as the Sunnah and Hadith which give accounts of Muhammad's life, and a history of early Islam. Some may find this offensive, but to say the least Islam is anything but a peaceful religion for active practioners of the faith. Its admonishments make it so. Do not take my word for it, check it out for yourself. You will then see that you are being lied to to your face.

       A true believer in Islam and its teaching, if he or she follows the teachings of the Qu'ran is out to kill, rob and obtain anything a non believer has. Breaking ones word and lieing are perfectly acceptable when dealing with non believers to advance Islam. It is in the Qu'ran, and is carried out on a daily basis all around the world. Read the books and you'll see.

      To any Muslims who may take offense at my previous statements, I urge you to take an objective look at these books and ask yourselves if this seem like honorable and acceptable behavior for a "prophet" and man of God. It may be time to re-exam your belief system.

        All religions have their bad apples, but most do not actively advocate violence, and warfare as a means to obtain their objectives!
