Jihad means struggle if you are getting bullied and that is the last resort then you should resort into violence and this is how most sane countiries react so is Jihad is perfectly normal and it should not be wiped out of Islam. jihad in places such as Palestine is fine and Chechneya where muslime were ethinically cleansed by the Russian army every woman man and child was killed if that happened in London would you not retaliate it happens in Iraq did you here about the US marines killing Muslims what about Guantalemo Bay and the people dying there do you have no affection that you can not see how they are bullied

There is wrong jihad for example the London bombings they should not have done this in London nor America so Jihad is perfectly fine however it depends what takes place it is clear but people mistake it not only that it is a last resort it should only take place when speaking out is not possible when you get killed and ethnically cleansed Islam also preeches you to accept the rules of the country and if they say we do not accept this you can not retaliate but only if they use violence
