Dear Dhimmi No More

Surely, "real Islam" is the Islam preached and practiced by Muhammad the prophet of Islam, the Muhammad who said "I have been made victorious with terror," At-Tabari IX 69, "real Muslims" being those who seek to emulate their prophet, and for which I am truly thankful that there are not more "real" Muslims, although the percentage of them is increasing throughout the Western world, where there is a very real problem of understanding, demonstrated by the parrot cry that goes up after every further act of Islamic terrorism, "that Islam is peaceful and peaceloving, and has been hijacked/perverted by extremists."

No it hasn't, "real Muslims" have been perverted by the Islam of Muhammad.
