Islam is a threat to world peace

Keep fooling yourself. Islam is only growing world wide due to the birth rate of more developing countries where it has been imposed with imperialistic vigour. It is specifically only on the rise in Europe due to mass Muslim immigration which will be scaled down radically as the West wakes up to the threat Islam poses to its Judaeo-Christian evolved secular liberal democratic society.

The Arab and Turkish jihads spread this "religion" westwards and had to be stopped using military force. If you think that mass immigration is going to going to islamise us by stealth think again. The right of centre parties are taking power across Europe and will act to preserve Western culture and institutions, whether we are talking about Italy or Britain. Islam always was and always will be a geopolitical project first and personal religion second.

Across the world, Muslims are in conflict with their neighbours, whether it be kashmir, East Timor, Bosnia, Sudan, Somalia, Nigeria etc. The Koran and Hadiths mandate violence against "unbelievers" as you well know and the duty of all muslims is to undertake jihad to spread the rule of Allah (House of Peace House of War). There may be peaceful and moderate Muslims (though you hardly ever hear of them) but there is certainly no peaceful and moderate Islam. People are right to fear its spread. And Muslims in the West will have to decide whether they are with their fellow citizens or on the side of the Wahhabis and jihadists.
