Arab-Islamic Terrorism

Thanks for your keen interest in educating the American people about "militant Islam". I recommend the following:

1. Make it clear that Islam's bible, the Koran, preaches aggression and militancy toward non-believers-ie, Jews and Christians.

2. Make it clear that non-believers are to be subjugated to the status of dhimmitude, where continuous efforts are made to convert non-believers to Islam; and that physical and mental persecution is used to accomplish this.

3. Make it clear that militant Islam is not the exception, but rather the rule in many parts of the world, in dealing with non-Muslims, and that this has been true since the 7th Century, when Mohammad received his revelations from Allah.

4. Make it clear that what we are witnessing in the war against Jews and Christians-suicide bombings by Islamic adults and children- is also militant Islam, and that many Muslims around the world treat these killers as heroes to be honored and emulated.

5. Make it clear that what Americans and Israelis are suffering at the hand of Arab murderers, and which is being labeled "militant Islam", should be understood as "authentic Islam", and that the Jewish and Christian God of love is not the God of hate known as Allah.
