The goal of true islam is to gain control of the entire earth via jihad. And this muslim is simply stating the truth of the fact and declaring his willingness to do the will of muhammad as all true muslims do.
Im a true Muslim. This, what I do here and on 5 other forums, is my Jihad. Give me verses that support your theory that the goal of Islam is to conquer the world through Jihad?
Im pretty sure you wont find any and I sure as hell don’t want a lesson in my religion from someone who has never read the Quran or been a Muslim. Or have you?
yeah, most don't use the sword, but that was only about 1400 years ago, no biggy
oh, yeah, there is that little problem in Indonesia:

I guess you really are stupid. If not for your post asking why no Muslim has ever won the Noble Peace prize then for this. These are Muslim countries where Muslims are killed by these terrorists. A point you seem to be missing. So who is in the right? Those people killing others or the people being killed?
Also, Jihadwatch? Thats a hate site. The whole concept behind it. Search in Google for anti-semitic or anti-zionist or anti-christian or anti-anything sites and you will find them. Youll find what you want to find, doesn’t mean its true.
Freedom is an illusion. That being said if it were not for the Crusades we would all be Muslim due to constant invasion by force.
Haha! Constant invasion by force! What a laughable post. If you don’t see the irony in this then, oh well...
In Christianity there are missionaries who travel to all parts of the world to spread the religion by being good examples and charitiy. Does Islam have similar missionaries? If so, I have never heard of them.
An example of your ignorance. Just because you don’t see them doesn’t mean that they are not there. I know they are there. Want to know why? Because my father was sent to Africa and we went along. He wasn’t sent as a religious missionary, like Christians do who will only save you or give you food if you listen to the Bible or learn about Christianity, but as a doctor. His duty was to build and run hospitals and clinics and we also built schools. Seeing our work and everything we did whole tribes converted to Islam. More recently he was sent to Kashmir to help setup clinics after the earthquake there. Ive also seen friends go help after the Boxing Day Tsunami. I know of a lot of people who live in 3rd world countries to help those people, by teaching them how to grow crops of their own or to build. I personally help with filling trucks with aid for African nations.
If you want to know about other Muslim charities in 3rd world countries, look it up on the net.
The only kind of missionary effort I have seen from Islam his by obediance to Gods admonision, go forth and multiply, in Genesis and by the point of a sword or gun. Is my perception in error? Can someone supply me with evidence of peaceful missionary work of Islam?
Where has this missionary work taken place? Also, Im not going to do your work for you. Search for Islamic Charities.
Even in a democracy the rich and powerful secure their wealth and influence. Its always been the same. Perhaps Islam was successful as a precipitate to rally against this? However, that was a long time ago and now Islam itself is what people rally against..
Just the ignorant and hateful.
Islam is fundamentally flawed - the notions of monotheism and "Mohammad was the last prophet" sets the system up to revert back to demagoguery and that's exactly what happened and hence we read this sort of tripe even today.
Its not fundamentally flawed, unlike your argument, because let me tackle this myth you have about Islam once and for all: I, as a Muslim, do not believe the Holy Prophet was the last Prophet ever.
Unlike Xiaity which has a powerful psychological impact (forgiveness) Islam only has .. and mo was the last prophet. It's really not that powerful - more like a statement. One asks - AND what does this do for me?? Nothing. Just accept it.
As I’ve stated before I don’t believe that he is the last Prophet ever. The debate about Khatam-e-Nabiyeen is long and complex and something you wouldn’t be able to grasp because of your lack of knowledge about the Arabic lexicon and the Quran.
I find one of the core principals in Islam is simply teaching intolerance (and sometimes even hatred) against Christians and Jews. I hear it over an over and over and over and over again - we even read it here. It's as if Islam was successful as a revolution against the establishment; but now that Islam IS the establishment it must maintain itself by setting itself up as being opposed to everyone that is not Islamic.
Completely wrong. It doesn’t teach hatred about Jews or Christians or anyone. Support this argument of yours with verses from the Quran so we can have a proper discussion on this.
The writing is on the wall - Islam is doomed to failure and much like the Gods it replaced it too will be replaced.
Ah, sorry to burst your bubble my friend. Islam is here to stay. It is growing and not just by birth. It is and will replace Christianity and the world will be better for it because some of the doctrines of Christianity are fundamentally flawed like sin and salvation. But before that can happen, Muslims will need to tackle these terrorists, these hypocrites against whom we were warned by the Prophet and the Quran.
Another myth I want to get out of the way here is that some of you keep saying Islam is violent and Bhuddism is on the other end as peaceful and that there are no Bhuddist terrorists. While I agree there are no Bhuddist terrorists I also say there are no Muslim terrorists. I don’t believe in naming terrorists after their religion. I find that extremely narrowminded. But lets take a look at what, if you were fair and applied the same logic to other terrorists as you do those who call themselves Muslims, would classifiy as Bhuddist terrorists and or extremists:
Some Buddhists burn down a mosque:

Also, I wouldnt be praising Talduwe Somarama to the Bandaranaike family.
And there are more but you can find them on your own. Also, under your ignorant classification of terrorists you can add Jewish Terrorism, Christian Terrorism etc. Let me quote someone:
You ask whether I understand that Islamic terrorist acts are religiously motivated?
Sounds like you are "begging the question". You are assuming by the use of the term Islam - a religious faith - that if a member of that religion commits a terrorist act it is religiously motivated, and asking if I understand that.
It's like me asking you - Do you understand that if a Christian commits a terrorist act it is religiously motivated? By calling the terrorist a Christian in that sentence, it begs the real question of the motivation behind the act, and assumes it is religiously motivated because the terrorist is a Christian. It is a circular argument, a logical fallacy. It's as if I say X is true because X is true without saying why.
There can be many motivations for terrorism
Also, let me quote another thing:
The roots of this problem lie in the centuries of colonial domination and the years of de facto colonization since then. The roots of the problem lie in continued Western support to bullies, military dictators, kings, sheikhs and other tyrpes of tyrants in the Muslim world. The roots lie in their systematic oppression. The roots lie is denying the weak to exercise their right to self-determination and self-rule.
Don't blame the reaction for all the mess the colonial masters and their puppets have created on Islam. There is no concept of terrorism or terrorising a single individual in Islam - let alone forcing the world into submission against its will. Colonialists and totalitarians, however, have been using torture (remeber Abu Ghraib and Gurantanamo) collective punishments (Fallujah) and terrorism (shock and awe) as the main tools for making nations submit to their will.
You are facing "Islamist terrorism" and "all terrorists are Muslims" because the victims of your aggression are Muslims. Trying imposing genocidal sanctions on one of your allies and kill 1.8 million of its people. Then, try lying about the same ally - lie through your teeth to the UN and to the world just like your leaders did about Iraq. Then, based on those lies, invade your ally. Kill a million more. And only then you will see a Christian Al-Qaeda and Christianist terrorism, or a Bhuddhist al-Qaeda and Bhuddist terrorism, or may be a Hindu and Jewish Al-Qaeda. People are the same everywhere. Irrespective of what faith they believe in, as human beings they react in the same way. The laws of nature are the same everywhere. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
