You quoted me specifically saying this is not about Muslims. It is about Islam. The you turn around and make it personal again. You obviously have NO reading comprehension skills.
Once AGAIN this is not about individuals but an ideology called Islam.
What does Islam teach?
Its holy writings are based upon the Koran and Hadiths. Bukhari is one of the most famous and best Hadith collectors.
He testified that Muhammad consummated his marriage to Aisha when she was 9 years old. This came from Aisha herself. (Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 62, Number 18).
The Koran speaks of Islamic wives in this way:
Surah 65:4 If you have any doubt concerning those of
your wives who have ceased menstruating, then you should know that their waiting period will be three months, and the same will apply to those who have
no menstruation due to young age or a disease. As for those who are pregnant, their waiting period will end with delivery. Allah will ease the hardship of those who fear Him.
Thus prepubescent marriage is sanctified by Allah and his messenger.
Due to this child brides are common in Islam.

You can google this for yourself.
Other aspects of ISLAM:
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities - Voltaire
How important is Jihad? Well let's see what the holy books say.
Surah 4:88-89
[88] What is the matter with you, why are you divided into two groups concerning the hypocrites, while Allah has cast them off on account of their misdeeds? Do you wish to guide those whom Allah has confounded? Whomever Allah has confounded you cannot find a way for them to be guided.
[89] Their real wish is to see that you become a disbeliever, as they themselves have disbelieved, so that you may become exactly like them. So you should not take friends from their ranks unless they immigrate in the way of Allah; and if they do not,
seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and do not take any of them as protectors or helpers.
Surah 61:4
Indeed Allah loves those who fight for His Cause in battle array as if they were a solid wall.
Surah 9:38-39
[38] O believers! What is the matter with you that when you are asked to march forth in the way of Allah, you cling to the earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the life of the hereafter? If it is so, then you should know that the comforts of this life are little compared to the life of the hereafter.
[39] If you do not march forth, He will inflict on you a painful punishment and replace you with other people, and you cannot harm Him at all, for Allah has power over everything.
Sahih Muslim, another celebrated Hadith collector, testified:
Bk 1, Number 0148:
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah was asked about
the best of deeds. He observed: Belief in Allah. He (the inquirer) said: What next? He (the Holy Prophet) replied:
Jihad (struggle to the utmost) in the cause of Allah. He (the inquirer) again said: What next? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Pilgrimage accepted into the grace of the Lord. In the. tradition narrated on the authority of Muhammad b. Ja'far (the words are) that he (the Holy Prophet) said: Belief in Allah and His Messenger. Muhammad b. Rafi and 'Abd b. Humaid, 'Abdur−Razzaq and Ma'mar and Zuhri have narrated a hadith like this on the authority of the same chain of transmitters.
Sahih Muslim
Bk 20, Number 4696:
It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: One who died but did not fight in the way of Allah nor did he express any desire (or determination) for Jihid died the death of a hypocrite. 'Abdullah b. Mubarak said: We think the hadith pertained to the time of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him).
What example did Muhammad leave behind?
Volume..5,..Book..58,..Number..148:
Narrated..Abu..Said..Al..Khudri:
Some people (i.e. the Jews of Bani bin Quraiza) agreed to accept the verdict of Sad bin Quadh so the Prophet sent for him (i.e. Sad bin Muadh). He came riding a donkey, and hen he approached the Mosque, the Prophet said, "Get up for the best amongst you." or said, "Get up for your chief." Then the Prophet said, "O Sad! These people have agreed to accept your verdict." Sad said, "I judge that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as captives." The Prophet said, "
You have given a judgment similar to Allah's Judgment (or the King's judgment)."
So MUCH more could be said about Islam.
