For the sake of one's religion

Submitted by M. Levy (United States), Dec 20, 2002 at 18:39

While the Koran copied much of its famous tenets from Judeo Christian concepts such as "saving one life is as saving humanity", etc, many "true Muslims" practice the exact opposite of what their own holy book of the Koran preaches. Kill as many innocent Western civilians -- be they American, Israeli, Russian, or Australian civilians -- for the "holyness" of one man - Muhammad. This is the 3rd Islamic Revolution; time to complete what was left of 7th & 1th century's Islamic revolution -- that is, "unify the world under Islam".

The irony is that, few moderate Muslims dare to publically criticize their fellow Muslims' horrific action, for fear of a death sentence (fatwah) from some mid-evil mullahs.
