Listen I have no like for islam or for the God of Islam and we all want peace but not islamic peace and the caliphate!

This is a very simple question and stop this big time drama and here we go again:

1. The word islam means surrender (to Allah)

2. The word salam means peace

3. The word islam has nothing to do with the word salam except in the minds of the likes of Angela whose Arabic is big zero.
