The history that shows Islam has always been in a perpetual state of jihad since its inception.

Mankind in general too.

You really should study it some more if you don't want to keep looking foolish by claiming the ones correctly following it are somehow hijacking it from these newer modern interpretations.

I already have. If you bothered to read the Gospels, you'd have a clearer understanding of the Koran.

The Gospels are an entirely different genre than the Koran. Reading the Gospels does not lead one to an understanding of the Koran any more than a reading of the Gilgamesh epic would lead one to an understanding of the Koran.

I've read both. Have you?

I won't post it all here, but hopefully you'll read this and get a better understanding of Islam. This is basically the entire early history. Enjoy.

I also guarantee you if you read that link, you will come to understand just who has hijacked Islam. Here's a hint: it's not the terrorists.
