The Peaces of Islam

Reader comment on item: Sudden Jihad Syndrome – It's Now Official
in response to reader comment: Is Islam a Religion of Peace?

Submitted by Brian H (Canada), Feb 3, 2008 at 21:32

gary;
Islam is a religion of peaces -- 2 peaces, to be exact.

There is the peace of "Submission" (literal meaning of "Islam") to Allah, and your local ayatollah of choice; for non-born-into-it Muslims, this means a few generations of initiation; for others, a gradual extinction through onerous taxes and "dhimmitude".

Then there is the peace of death, for the recalcitrant.

Take your pick. (Moderate Muslims are those who will give you a bit more time to choose. But the end state must be Universal Ummah, in any case.)
