Half truth = Full lie

Alo bro rolls out the usual explanation for the context of Allah encouraging the use of violence:

• secondly, Islam never taught bad (qur'an) don't just read only one verse to make you confuse as you've read in the qur'an "that when muhammad encounter the infidels strikes off their heads" that is depends upon the situation, this means in the batle field.but not everywhere.

What he conveniently leaves out is that Allah makes it obligatory for Muslims to convert the whole world into an Islamic hell and so they will inevitably press hard so as to provoke armed resistance. When Muslims invaded India they weren't bearing white flags but came intent on enforcing their will, knowing full well the consequences they were setting in play - a life of dhimmitude or slavery or death as a lamb or death as a fighter. Some societies attempt the last but it is the muslim who causes the battle and who then applies Allah's violence.

That Allah fella. He sure was clever ... setting up these plausible situations to confuse the infidel and force them into a no-win situation. In admiration for his cleverness a good Muslim can't refrain from bursting out into exclaiming "Allah akbar, Alla akbar".
