Mild "Islam" is for Muslims only!

Reader comment on item: The Evil Isn't Islam

Submitted by Liberte (France), Jul 31, 2002 at 06:58

There are two types of citizen in Dar Al Islam, the land of Islam: Muslims, and "others".
The others, called "dhimmi" have no rights under Islamic law. Only Muslims have right, of life, and death, on the dhimmis.

Therefore, talking about a mild Islam is nonsense: it concerns only Muslims. It is of no use for Christians or Jews or whatever else, they are only concerned by surats mentioning them, usually to say "kill them wherever you find them" and things like that.
If people see Islam as evil today, well they're just... right!
