I would like you all to go beyond this shallow distinction between a peacful islam and the hijacked islam.
Why in Nigeria , when 600 muslims have been killed by christians miltia, we won't dare to say that this CHRISTIANITY TERRORISM?
The United states is engaging in aggression and atrocities against muslims in iraq, palestine. and sudan and because of american support for the PIRATE STATE of ISRAEL and the dictator leaders in the muslim world. All these attacks against americans were ,are and will always stay a consequence of atrocities and the aggression commited by the US Government and its forces against the third world in general and the muslim world .
We believed before that those terrorists who attacked america must be acting against the principles of islam but now we favour the killing of americans occupying our lands.
Please you westerners developing this distorted vision of Islam. which you regard as enemy of decent civilization , you should know that we are commanded to go into a holy war only when we muslims being attacked from invaders . We are not those who start a war , that is to say , we won't go and kill chinese and korean because they are atheists . We would fight them only when they invade us only.
Islam is the world's fastest religion on earth and millions in europe are converting to islam , in the united kingdom , sweden and norway and more than 25000 austrians declared their convertion to islam.
