"What part of 'kill' doesn't the West understand?"




“So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayher and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. And if one of the idolaters seek protection from you, grant him protection till he hears the word of Allah, then make him attain his place of safety; this is because they are a people who do not know.” – The Koran, Sura 9:5-6

These verses underscore the obligation, especially contemplation called the sacred months to seek to spread submission to Islam by Jihad or Holy War. This is in keeping with Mohammed’s teaching that the world is divided by Allah into only two groups, the house of peace and the house or region of war. All who live outside the rule of Muslim government are in the permanent house or region of war.

“Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book (Bible), until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.” –The Koran, Sura 9:29

This verse emphasizes that the infidel is to be subjected by force. If they continue to resist, they are to be executed. Special note is made of the responsibility to those who have the Bible, the Jews and Christians.

“Those who believe fight in the way of Allah, and those who disbelieve fight in the way of the Shaitan (Satan). Fight therefore against the friends of the Shaitan; surely the strategy of the Shaitan is weak.” – The Koran, Sura 4.76

This verse demonizes all who are non-Muslims as friends of Satan. This gives authorization for the most extreme violent means of dealing with them.
