Does Islam Inspire Terrorism?
Our government is very careful to identify terrorists separate from Islam. We hear it stated over and over again that Islam is a religion of peace. We are told that the vast majority of Muslims reject jihad, terrorism, and the defeat of Western civilization and culture. Yet somehow terrorists and terror sponsoring nations seem to find a strong connection from their faith to their rhetoric and acts of violence and murder.
I say Islam inspires jihad---that it is a clear teaching from the Koran. Mohammed was a warrior and killed many throughout his lifetime. I say Islam does not promote peace but promotes global conquest. I say most Muslims openly or privately Believe in what terrorists are doing.
