Islamic terrorists routinely justify their actions by reference to Koranic verses. Why is this so difficult for you to see?

I agree that the USA and UK's astoundingly stupid foreign policy has given terrorists a motive, but it's the Koran which actually justifies their terrorism in their eyes, and in the eyes of Islamic clerics.

I find it simply staggering that when terrorists go to their deaths yelling 'Allah is the greatest', and use Koranic teachings to justify their actions; and when Muslim clerics also justify the terrorists' actions by reference to Koranic teachings; and when Shi'ites and Sunnis accuse each other of heresy and blow each other to pieces; and when terrorist behead hostages in exactly the same way that Muhammed beheaded 800 captive Jews in 627, people fail to spot that this all has something to do with Islam, the 'Religion of Peace'.

cleo: don't you think it's at least curious that the religious text that defines Islam in the present day should be even talking about war, prisoners, ransoms, smiting of necks etc? Not to mention the verse which clearly advocates wife beating (4:34). Doesn't sound like a very peaceful religion.

This isn't to say the all Muslims want to go smiting necks and beating their wives. However, the teachings are there, in the Koran, clear as day. And it's difficult for free-thinking Muslims to criticise these barbaric 7thC teachings because they'd be accused of apostacy, for which the penalty is death.

Madverts: You seem to be unable to distinguish between the actions of people who claim to be doing something in the name of a particular religion, and the actual teachings of that religion.

And pre-revised christians weren't up to these antics?

Nothing in Christian teachings urges violence. You've heard of 'love your enemies'. Contrast that to Koran [47.4] "So when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then smite the necks until when you have overcome them..."

What I don't understand is why now? They've been living in the UK for over half a century without Islamic terrorism rearing it's ugly head

USA and UK foreign policies are the catalyst which spark Muslims to obey the teachings of the Koran and kill non-believers.

smithinjapan: thanks for the English lesson

The former infers that all believers of Islam, but we already know the idiocy of that logic and pretending that 1.4 billion people are terrorists.

I think you mean imply, not infer. Look those words up. But hey.

Islam preaches violence and urges Muslims to kill non-believers. I've already shown you the relevant verse, but you seem to choose to ignore the evidence. However, even though Islam preaches violence, not all Muslims are receptive to that message, which explains why not all Muslims are terrorists, or even supporters of terrorists. But that doesn't alter the fact that Islam preaches violence.

YangYong: have you ever read the Koran and noted the blatant incitements to violence therein? Islam has always been at war with the non-Islamic world; that's how Islam spread. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_conquests).

The modern incarnation of this is Islamic terrorism. The only way to stop Islamic terrorism is to convince Islam that it's not at war. The invasion and continued occupation of Iraq makes this impossible of course.

The USA's 'ally' Saudia Arabia attacks New York on 9/11. Bush responds by attacking a completely unrelated secular Arab state (admittedly run by a genocidal crackpot dictator) thus giving Muslims the world over a clear excuse to say they're at war with west. If a state of war is accepted as a fact, it's hard for any theologans, Muslim or otherwise, to argue that jihad (=terrorism) is not justified in the Koran. And Saudia Arabia continues to fuel the jihad while the west continues to both suck up to it and ignore its intolerant, misogynistic, anti-democratic and violent Islamic teachings in western mosques. The jihadists are winning at a canter.

Molenir: a Muslim who criticises Jihad is in danger of being regarded as a heretic, and thus an enemy of Allah, and we all know what happens next. Muslims are victims of Islam too, that's why I said free-thinking Muslims are in a no-win situation.

TooFarGone: I totally agree. The problem can't be tackled until its root cause is recognized, and the mainstream media is trying desperately to hide this root cause. In its attempts to hide the world from the truth of what Islam teaches, it's getting more and more blood on its hands.

Note that the Islamic jihadists say they're obeying Koran, and Islamic clerics say the jihadists are obeying the Koran, so why do the 'apologists' (the mainstream media and the PC-at-all-costs brigade) drone on that has nothing to do with the Koran? Do the apologists think they understand Islam more than these obviously completely devout Muslims? What phenomenal arrogance.

Suberlib: and what of the texts in the Koran and Hadiths which command Muslims to 'strike at the necks' of 'unbelievers'; and which state that women are the property of men and can be beaten; and which command Muslims to give unbelievers the choice between paying an infidel levy, being converted, or death; are you saying these don't exist? Are they simply typos? Or do you just choose to ignore them? Because the terrorists don't ignore them, they draw their inspiration from them, and they state very clearly that this is the case.

And what about the jihadists who tried to blow up a departure lounge at Prestwick Airport in Scotland? One of them was a highly trained surgeon working in a prestigous hospital. Guess it must've been poverty that drove him to it.

The worldwide problem of jihad will never be solved while people insist on pussy-footing around the unfortunate fact the the Koran and the Hadiths contain clear incitements to violence.

Maruku: first of let me say I reset being called prejudiced. I'm totally agnostic, and support freedom of faith, sexual orientation, and I support gender equality, democracy and free-thinking. These things are completely contrary to what Islam teaches; therefore I don't like Islam. That's not prejudice, just sound reasoning. If I said I didn't like Muslims I'd be prejudiced. Please acknowledge this important difference.

Secondly, Christians. Obviously in the last 2000 years there have been countless wars fought by Christians. However, as anyone with any theological knowledge would know, and as you obviously do from reading your post, this is completely contrary to the teachings of Jesus, who was totally anti-conflict, and famously advised people to 'turn the other cheek' and 'love your enemy'. Muhammed on the other hand urges you to slaughter your enemies, and he personally beheaded 700 prisoners of war. And futhermore, Muhammed said that people who refuse to convert to Islam are automatically enemies of Islam, and thus can be legitimately attacked.

This is the difference; many wars have been fought by fools in the name of religions which advocate peace. However, Islam clearly advocates violence and war. Just read the Koran! Why is this so difficult to see?

smithinjapan: it's amazing how people like you can hide from the truth when for the last 15 years or so, Islamic terrorist have regularly been committing atrocities and citing the word of Allah as their inspiration. What would it take to convince you? If a website quotes an Islamic cleric, is that propaganda? Islamic extremists are screaming that they're doing it in the name of Allah; they even cite the relevant verses in the Koran. Don't you believe them? Why else would they say it? When Channel 4 in the UK filmed a cleric in a mosque in London preaching that all homosexuals should be killed in the name of Allah, was that propaganda?

If you don't like the site I pointed you to, perhaps you should just stick with www.jihadwatch.com, where every article is based on a report in a major world newspaper or website; where the webmaster clearly and calmly reports on what the terrorists and the Islamic clerics who support/fail to condemn them are saying. It's all there, and it's easy to verify. And what's more, the webmaster never resorts to abuse, unlike you sadly.

smithinjapan: just have a look at http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/

You'll see reports of almost daily attacks by terrorists in the name of Islam. However, most of them don't occur in the West. Is that why you appear somewhat blasse about Islamic jihad?

Free-thinking Muslims are in a no-win situation. On the one hand, they must be able to see that the Koran and Hadiths 1)call for the conversion, subjugation or killing/fighting of non-believers (Hadith 19,4294) 2)say quite clearly that women are the property of men, and can be beaten (Koran 4:34). They must also know of those Muslim groups in America who have called for the USA to be turned into an Islamic state. To quote:

"Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth." -- Omar Ahmad, founder of CAIR, the Council for America Islamic Relations.

Unfortunately, speaking out against these abominations incurs the wrath that Sharia Law reserves for such 'heretics'(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostasy in Islam) (spaces should be underscores)

Anger shouldn't be directed at individual Muslims, but Muslims leaders who fail to temper the excesses of the Koran, and who fail to drag Islam, a religion created by a 7thC Arab warlord, into the 21stC.

Pakistan needs to control radical elements of religion by lifting up their holy book by showing what is written so the radicals can see they have been led astray from the true teaching.

LOL! Well, I would if it wasn't so tragic.

Does the 'true teaching' from which these murders have been led astray include these Koran 'holy book' verses:

[8.12] When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.

or, on the subject of women:

[4.34] Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great

I think the 'extremists' are just doing what they're told to do in the Koran.

adaydream: people of all religions have killed each other for thousands of years. However, only Islam specifically calls for the killing of non-believers. Just read the Koran, it's all there.

This is why it's hard for Muslims to unequivocally condemn terrorism; certainly, they say killing innocent people is forbidden. However, no unbeliever (kuffar, infidel) is ever innocent in the teachings of the Koran.

Why are they telling the world this?

The cat's been out of the bag for a long time. All the details are available on Transport for London's website, in 16 languages (but not Japanese!) www.tfl.gov.uk

I used to work in Covent Garden, and I used to love lunchtime when I'd explore another one of the hundreds of cheap, wholesome, charismatic cafe/restaurants in the labyrinth of streets between Convent Garden and Soho. (And are was always lots of choices for veggies, even in the Japanese places...)
