Weyrich (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Many prominent Muslim clerics, even in this modern era, still teach that non-believers must be forced into submission. Iran's late Ayatollah Khomeni was not a lone voice in Islam when he said, as quoted by Spencer: "Islam makes it incumbent on all adult males, provided they are not disabled or incapacitated, to prepare themselves for the conquest of [other] countries so that the writ of Islam is obeyed in every country in the world..." In our own day, Sheikh Muhammad Saleh al-Munajjid, an imam in our ally Saudi Arabia, stated during a Friday sermon at a mosque: "Muslims must...educate their children to Jihad. This is the greatest benefit of the situation: educating the children to Jihad and to hatred of the Jews, the Christians, and the infidels; educating the children to Jihad and to revival of the embers of Jihad in their souls. This is what is needed now..." But those in America and the West who have been raised in the tolerance preached by Judaism and Christianity are ill-equipped to confront a religion that is so intolerant.")
