There are Muslims and there are Muslims.

There are Muslims and there are Muslims.
Dr. Kahleel Mohammed is a professor of Islamic Studies at Univ. of San Diego. He rcvd his Ph.D. at the Univ. of Riyadh in Saudi Arabia and is an Imam schooled in the Wahabi-Sunni tradition of Islam. The title of a lecture which some people attended was "Can Militant Islam Co-exist with the State Of Israel?"

One wrote: "What we heard was blood chilling, but not at all surprising to me.

His opening statement was, "the people of the U.S. worry about Osama. He is nothing but a tiny offshoot of the problem. The main problem is (and I quote) " EVERY SINGLE MOSQUE IN THE USA ESPOUSES FROM THE PULPIT THAT EVERY SINGLE JEW (not just Israel) IN THE WORLD MUST BE ANNIHILATED. No ifs ands or buts!! And these mosques don't even consider themselves militant.

Trading land for peace. A big joke! The Koran states (as he quoted) that any Treaty between a Muslim and a non-Muslim nation is not binding and is meant to be broken once the Muslim nation becomes stronger than the non-Muslim nation with whom the treaty was made. So all the treaties with Israel to be made in the future will eventually (and must) be broken once the Muslim nation feels it is strong enough.

It took 200 years for the Crusaders to be vanquished and driven from the Holy Land. Israel is a mere 50 yrs old. Islam has patience.

Dr. M. has rcvd numerous death threats and is constantly booed and driven off the pulpit in the many mosques that he lectures in because he espouses peaceful co-existence with Israel. The scary part is that we really have a huge 5th column right here in the USA."
