“We’ll keep fighting for the dignity of Islam. There’s no room for kafir to lead in this nation.”

The same guy would probably punch you in the face if you told him views like this lead to the accusation that Islam is intolerant.

Kafir means infidel to the islamists, the purveyors of peace. So much for being "moderates". There's no such thing.

That makes zero sense.

The word "kafir" translates to non-believer or disbeliever, which in islam is the pejorative "infidel" to which the holy book of the religion demands a death penalty. Such is the religion of "peace". Make sense now?

There are verses which say that.

What I was talking about was your claim that there are no moderates. You seem to be saying because there are Islamists there are no moderates. Have I misunderstood you?
