ALL MUSLIMS CALL THEM SELVES "MUSLIMS," NOT "ISLAMISTS"

Reader comment on item: What's Trump's Policy on Visas for Muslims?

Submitted by UNCLE VLADDI (Canada), Aug 17, 2016 at 18:28

ALL MUSLIMS CALL THEM SELVES "MUSLIMS," NOT "ISLAMISTS"

And as the implicit concomitant corollary, they are also all "islamists" in that they all support islam - every word, jot and tittle of it - lest the others officially have to murder them for not-supporting all of it:

Islam is not "Cafeteria Catholicism" it is a bundled package deal: all or nothing. I refer doubters, dissenters & deniers to Surah Al-Baqarah 2:85 to see it right from the demon's book.

Anyone who only pretends to accept ALL of islam's 'holy' commands to extort, enslave, and murder all the non-muslims in the world, are therefore to be considered apostate hypocrites and infidels themselves, who must be murdered by the other, 'real' muslims, as per Qur'anic sura 4:89.

Perhaps when you say "islamist" you'd like us to think they are "radicalist extremist militantists" too, and not "real" muslims?

But this constant use of the misleadingly reassuring qualifier word, "Radical" islam – is a dangerous lie, because it tricks people into believing by implication that there is some other, non-radical kind of islam out there – when there is not, was never, and never will be!

Why use the weird qualifying adjective "radical" at all? Terrorism is a normal part of islam, and it's right in their Qur'ans as a sacred duty of theirs. So it's to be carried out by normal, devout muslims against us. The only truly "radical" muslim, would be the slacker who doesn't want to do it!

And as anyone who knows anything about islam already knows, Muhammad had their dislikes covered, too:

Sura 4:77: Those who whined "Hold back your hands (from attacking)" were corrected:
"War is compulsory for us - the good and bad both come from allah!"

Sura 2:216: "Fighting has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not."
