A Saudi teenager opinions in Jihad

Submitted by mido ..... (Saudi Arabia), Nov 29, 2005 at 03:43

Hello,

I am a Muslim and am 19 years old, and here is my opinions in Jihad. First, those who kill innocent people are not doing jihad, those who bomb them self and kill families, women, children are not doing jihad. I don't know why Osama bin laden say that he is a Mojahed ( a man who is doin jihad) all what he did is bombed the WTC and killed about 4 or 5 thousand people who were only doing there job and not even involving in any kind of war. He killed women and children ( if you read Quraan you will see that its forbidden to kill women and children in jihad ). A

lso, in the Quraan, it is said that if some one didn't harm you or fought you, you don't have the right to harm him and fight him, so if Osama bin Laden believe that what happened in 9/11 is called Jihad, then he doesn't know any thing about it ( not sure if he even read it 2 ).

Actually, In my opinion, in the last 1000 years, I don't think that there were some thing called Jihad, I think that all those things were selfish wars) . BTW, thank you Mr. Gorge W. Bush for freeing the people of Iraq from Saddam Hussain and what he caused to them.

note: please forgive me for any spelling or grammar mistake, my english is not that good :).
