Dr. Pipes

I would expect honesty from a so called professor and in this case it is the so called professor Khalidi of Columbia University and in an interview on PBS news tonight in regard to what the Qur'an says about beheading he tells us that yes the Qur'an says in Q47:4 that Muslims should behead the kuffar which we know then he has the audacity to say that the aya after saying beheading is OK that Muslims can tie the necks of kuffar then they can set them (kuffar) free in grace what evewr that is or ransom them!

How can you ransom or release some one after he was already beheaded? Did the young clueless reporter ask him such question? Off course not.

This confused aya says behead them then it says tie their necks and either release them or ransom then! Oh the Qur'an is a linguistic miracle nonsense

How can Muslims behead then tie the necks and ransom or releases their victims? It does not make sense

Shame on him

It seems that Prof Khalidi does not seem to know that we kuffar can read the Qur'an

But this is not the end of it the good ole professor did not even address Q12:4 where it says that Muslims must behead the kuffar and no mention of a deal

Why the dishonesty and lies?
