The article clearly descibes what a jihad means. We are not concerned with what small or minor jihad is. Ohh how sometimes i feel so depressed when i hear these naive westerners saying "islam is peace".."islam is tolerant"...when will they learn? are they naturally dumb? 9/11 consumed more than 3000 lives. God for bid the jihadists in pakistan are clamouring to get the nuclear war heads of Pakistan. The Iranians are already developing nulclear weapons (but they say it is for engery purpose!). These countries are weak not secular, unlike the west and any islamic uprising by some fanatics could take control of those deadly weapons and they will never hesitate to use it and at that time i hope you will be alive to ask your cunning muslim who misled you "but you told me jihad is "jhd", to become good teacher and good business man or blah blah!". I wonder if the naive westerners or liberals will be alive to ask that question!
