we can surely read and comprehend the versed from the koran and hadith... we have more that sufficient evidence of the violent life of Mohammed ....our eyes can see what muslims do around the world.....still we are living in the fantasy that muslims are peace loving ..... that there is something called a moderate muslim...Why can't we face the bitter truth that muslims want to kill us and that we are under attack?

Muslim atrocities, and the collective Muslim response to those atrocities, might be better understood knowing their belief system as spelled out by a few, among many, passages from the Quran:
"Fight those who do not believe in Allah" (Surat At-Taubah 9:29).
"I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, Smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger tips of them" (Quran 8:12).
"The unbelievers among the People of the Book(Christians and Jews) and the pagans shall burn forever in the fire of Hell. They are the vilest of all creatures" (Quran 98:1-8).
"Fight against those who believe not in Allah, and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (Islam), until they are subdued" (Surat At-Taubah 9:29).
