John Quincy Adams
The precept of the Koran is perpetual war against all who deny that mahomet is the prophet of God. The vanquished may purchase their lives by the payment of tribute The victories may be appeased by a false and delusive promise of peace and their faithful followers of the prophet may submit to the imperious neccesities to defeat but the command to propagate to the muslim creed by the sword is always obligatory when it can be made effective. The commands of the prophet made be performed alike by fraud or by force.

Don't forget his DECADES long fight against Slavery.

Shoot his long life fills books. Traveling to Russia across Europe when he was a Teenager. WOW.

Oh Yeah, I almost forgot.

JQA was an incredible fellow, driven to the point of insanity by his goofy parents. He served as a representative after he was President and was an early strong voice against slavery. He kept a life-long journal that aided in the writing of this most excellent book, “John Quincy Adams: A Public Life, A Private Life” by Harlow Giles Unger.
He and his father were the first two one term Presidents.

“ISLAM is a combination of Paganism, worship of the moon god Allah and Ebionism, a Christian heresy, spread by Mohammed Bin Abd Allah in Arabia in the 7th century. The word “Islam” was not derived from the Arabic word “salam”, which means “peace” as Muslims claim. It was derived from “istislam” which means “surrender or die.” The word “sal’lem” was the word which Mohammed shouted while pursuing his opposition. His militant commands, terrorist attacks, pagan, and Ebionism’s beliefs are contained in the Koran, the book of Islam.” - from National American Coptic

Muslims have never claimed Islam means Peace. That is left up to idiot western politicians. Muslims have always said, accurately, that Islam means Submission.

I highly recommend everyone read the President's autobiography, and afterward perhaps the influential work of his grandson Henry Adams, i.e. "The Education of Henry Adams," though President Adams' auto can be read in an evening.

His frank, hilarious sense of humor, tickled even this Southern boy.
