German Munoz, Professor of International Relations at Miami Dade College recently summed up the rational for protesting against Islam :
"The story being missed, or purposively kept away from the American people, is the direct connection between the actions of Muslim terrorists and the commands of Allah in the Koran. Our secularized elites do not want us to understand or discuss the religious base underlying the terrorists’ political agenda for world domination. If they would read the Koran they would see that Allah wants Muslims to kill the infidels (Koran 9:5) wherever they are found. That the heads and fingers of unbelievers should be cut off, and that Muslims should fight and humiliate Jews and Christians.
Why are the establishment media and academia keeping all this information from the American public? These are the types who sacrifice national security on the altar of political correctness and of a self-righteousness and irresponsible tolerance. They cannot be trusted to provide America the accurate information Americans need to protect themselves. These killers have not “hijacked” Islam as our elites argue absurdly. They are implementing verses found in the Koran itself.
The crucial thing now is how to inform the American people about the religious threat to their existence. The first step is to tell the truth about the Koran and its impact on the present jihad.” Analysts David R. Frum and Richard Perle also sum up the issue in their new book, "An End to Evil:"
"The terrorists kill and will accept death for a cause with which no accommodation is possible. That cause is militant Islam. Moreover, these beliefs are not really confined to a radical fringe, but infect even ordinary Muslims. Even though it is comforting to deny it, all the available evidence indicates that militant Islam commands wide support , and even wider sympathy, among Muslims worldwide, including Muslim minorities in the West. The roots of Muslim rage are to be found in Islam itself. While there are multiple terrorist groups, the common element of Islam makes the threat monolithic. The ideology that justifies the terrible crimes of Hamas and Hezbollah is the same ideology that justifies the crimes of al-Qaeda. The result is the unlimited threat to dominate the world through Jihad.The aim is to overthrow our civilization and remake the nations of the world into Islamic societies , imposing on the whole world its religion and law.The result is an unlimited threat to dominate the world through Jihad."
In his bestseller, "The End of Faith" Sam Harris list some 200 verses in the Koran that incite violence. Here are some of them as laid out by the noted Islamic scholar Ibn Warraq in "Leaving Islam", page 405.
A) Verses that show intolerance of and incite violence against non-Muslims and other religions
Sura (verse numbers, Koran)
9.5 Slay the idolaters wherever you find them...lie in ambush everywhere for them.
47.4 When you meet the unbelievers in battle strike off their heads
98.6 The unbelievers among the People of the Book, Christian and Jews, and the pagans shall burn forever in the fire of Hell. They are the vilest of creatures.
B) Anti-Jewish sentiment in the Koran:
2.61 Wretchedness and baseness were stamped on the Jews and they were visited with wrath from Allah.
5.82 Indeed you will surely find that the most vehement of men in enmity to those who believe are the Jews and the polytheists.(Christians)
5.60 God has cursed the Jews, transforming them into apes and swine. and those who serve the devil.
C) Cruelty, sadism, and unusual punishments in the Koran.
5.38 As for the thief, both male and female, cut off their hands...an exemplary punishment from Allah.
5.33 Those who make war against Allah and his Apostle shall be put to death or have their hands and feet cut off on alternate sides.
24.2 The adulterer and adulteress shall each be given a hundred lashes. Let no pity for them cause you to disobey God.
D) Hostility to women
4:34 Men are in charge of women , because Allah has made one of them to excel the other. As for those from whom you fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and beat them.
4:24 Forbidden to you are married women, except those whom you own as slaves.
2:223 Women are your fields, go, then into your fields from whichever side you please.
E) Jihad
9:5 Kill those who join other gods with God (the Trinity, polytheism) wherever you may find them .
8:12 I will instill terror into the hearts of the Infidels , strike off the heads then, and strike off from them every fingertip.
.9:111 Allah has purchased of their faithful lives and worldly goods and in return has promised them the Garden. They will fight for his cause, kill and be killed.
The world’s hope for an effective “moderate” countermovement to this hatred in the Koran is a fantasy. For the simple reason that the Islam of “jihad” can always trump moderates with quotes direct from the Koran. "Contextual" reinterpretation is not acceptable to the vast majority of Islamic scholars, who also hold to the principle of “abrogation,” the rule that says the more violent verses of the later Koran of the bloody Medina period nullify the more peaceful verses of the earlier Meccan period. For that reason, the argument is solid that terrorism in the final analysis has its roots in the Koran, which comes straight from the being of God, and allows of no reinterpretation. Although it is reluctant to admit it, the world at present is indeed at war with Islam. The reason we don't admit it is because media and university have kept citizens everywhere from seeing the truth.
