The aim of Islam is clear

Nobody understands the Muslim's thinking (no matter whether they are Arab or not) better than the Christians of Islamic countries, the Jews and Mr. Pipes.

What the 3 year old child said is very familiar to me, I've heard it nearly everyday in Egypt, everywhere and in every occasion. We -the Christians of Egypt- had to learn Koran in the Government-run primary schools, we had to learn it by heart, I know nearly every verse of it and I understand them all.

Indeed, Koran is very clear, slaying the Infidels is a must. But the question now is "who are the infidels?!" According to the Islamic teachings every Muslim will immediately say:
The infidels are those who are not Muslims and do not believe in the Koran. The answer is very clear, we (the Christians), the Jews and all those who don't believe in Islam or any other religion are counted infidels. Well, what is the penalty of being infidels? You know the answer: DEATH.

The killing of non Muslims is called JIHAD. Jihad is central in Islam, it is the core of the Koran.

Mr. Pipes is the best one to know about the tolerance of Islam! I mean the 3 choices that a non-Muslim has: Voluntarily converting to Islam, paying the non Muslim-tax (punishment money) or being killed.

Indeed, there is nothing called a moderate Muslim and a radical Muslim, either you are a Muslim or not, and if you want to change the Muslims' mentality you'll have to change their Koran first, because they really believe every word in it. Preparing TERROR for the enemy of Allah is a holy mission, believe or not, it is LITERALLY written.

Now, how many terror attacks do we need to realise the reality of Islam? How many millions of Christians must die in Sudan, Egypt, Pakistan, Indonesia, etc to take a stand? How much longer will we ignore the Jews in their existential-fight against terror? How rich must we be to change our way of making business with the Islamic countries?

When will we stop sacrificing Israel for the sake of the Arabs, isn't it enough that they are on fire for so many years?

Thank you
