Aania Ahmed. How does it feel like it to be at the receiving end?

Aania Ahmed you write,

>>I cant express my anger on why just Islam is the only target of non-muslims to talk about.<<

You will understand better why non-Muslims "target" Islam if in the verses I quoted in my last post you replace references to non-Muslmis, like disbelievers, they, rejectors, a people etc with the word Muslim. I have done that for you below. What will a Muslim think of a scripture which abuses him so unashamedly think of the followers of that religion.

080.042 YUSUFALI: Such will be the Muslims, the doers of iniquity.
[In case you think iniquity means something else read Pickthal and Shakir]

PICKTHAL: Those are the Muslims, the wicked.
SHAKIR: These are they who are Muslims, the wicked.

009.053 YUSUFALI: Say: "Spend (for the cause) willingly or unwillingly: not from Muslims will it be accepted: for Muslims are indeed a people rebellious and wicked."

Quran 45:11, "This is guidance; and (as for) the Mulims who disbelieve in the communications of their Lord, they shall have a painful punishment on account of uncleanness"

Quran 10:100, " And it is not for a soul to believe except by Allah's permission; and He casts uncleanness on the Muslims who will not understand. "

009.095 YUSUFALI: Muslims will swear to you by Allah, when ye return to them, that ye may leave them alone. So leave Muslims alone: For Muslims are an abomination, and Hell is their dwelling-place,-a fitting recompense for the (evil) that they did

025.044 YUSUFALI: Or thinkest thou that most of the Muslims listen or understand? Muslims are only like cattle;- nay, Muslims are worse astray in Path.

002.171 YUSUFALI: The parable of those who reject Faith, [the Muslims] is as if one were to shout Like a goat-herd, to things that listen to nothing but calls and cries: Deaf, dumb, and blind, Muslims are void of wisdom.

007.176 YUSUFALI: If it had been Our will, We should have elevated the Muslim with Our signs; but he inclined to the earth, and followed his own vain desires. The Muslims' similitude is that of a dog: …..

Also note that since modifying the verses to completely change their meaning lightning did not strike me down and they are there for anyone who cares to read it, Allah's promise of protecting His word has been falsified.
