I recently set out to learn more about Islam. I had no agenda at the time except to broaden my knowledge on the subject. What I have learned sickened me. I had previously been accepting of the notion that Islam was a peaceful religion and that the Muslim terrorists who inflict so much pain and death around the world represented a fringe element outside of mainstream Islam. I was wrong.
The Islamic deity, Allah, is a false god. While the term "Allah" does indeed carry the same meaning as "God," Mohammed's Allah is nothing more than a construct of a vile false prophet who sought to create an empire upon the rotting corpses of his enemies. Let's review some history...
In 621 A.D. Mohammed was in Mecca preaching to any who would listen that he alone was the Divine Prophet of the One God, Allah. Meccans eventually grew tired of his ranting and demanded that he cease and desist. With a tiny band of followers, Mohammed sneaked out of Mecca in the dead of night and traveled to the Jewish city of Medina. He and his followers were sick, tired, and hungry and the Jews there took them in and nursed them to good health.
Unfortunately Mohammed was consumed with rage over his being booted out of Mecca and began plotting his revenge. It was this plan that became the basis for the religion of Islam. In January of 623 A.D. Mohammed ordered his band of thugs to attack four unarmed merchants who were transporting their wares to Mecca. All four were brutally murdered and their merchandise (raisins, animal skins, and honey) was stolen. Claiming a Divine Right, Mohammed received one fifth of the take.
Mohammed began to preach to his followers that it was mandated by Allah that nonbelievers (like his perceived enemies in Mecca) were "the worst kind of beasts" and that they must be slain. This cruel rhetoric attracted the sort of people who enjoy such depraved activities and soon Mohammed had an army numbering in the hundreds. Rape, robbery, and murder were all sanctioned as being the Divine Will of Allah, and Mohammed reaped a fortune as his growing army raged across ancient Arabia.
Poets and politicians alike who spoke out against him were tortured and murdered. Even the Jews of Medina, who had shown him such kindness, were eventually driven from their homes while Mohammed's Muslim band pillaged the city. With each new raid, Mohammed would claim to have had yet another "revelation" from Allah that justified their actions. In short, Mohammed led a tribe of barbarians who truly believed that they were doing Allah's will by destroying pre-Islamic Arabia. In all, Mohammed would order 86 raids upon the innocent, 26 of which he led himself. In 630 A.D. Mohammed marched triumphantly into Mecca with 40,000 followers. His revenge was complete, but the horrors of Islam had only begun.
Mohammed's sole purpose in everything he did was to feed his enormous ego and satisfy his perverse sexual needs. In all, Mohammed had eleven wives, nine of them simultaneously, with the youngest being only ten years old. Eye-witness accounts claim that Aisha brought her toys with her when she was delivered to the Prophet of Allah.
Mohammed regarded women as nothing more than sexual toys and servants, and of course justified his actions by proclaiming that it was Allah's will that women always be subjugated to men. Seeing him as their spiritual guide and role model, other Muslim men treated their women accordingly. A cycle of abuse that still endures today in many parts of the world had thus begun.
By the time Mohammed died at age 63, the face of the Middle East had changed from a civilized and prosperous world to one of fear, poverty, and deprivation. Gone was any semblance of free expression or religious freedom. Mohammed and his followers had turned the known world upside down.
The Twelfth-Century Crusades were in fact a response by England, France and Germany to the growing Muslim violence against Christians. It is quite appropriate to state that the Crusades against "Mohammedism" constituted the first War on Terror. A coalition of like-minded nations, setting aside their political differences for a time, engaging a barbaric and bloodthirsty Muslim enemy on its own soil. Sound familiar?
As time passed, the Crusades came to an end due as much to internal bickering as success. The beast that is Islam had been diminished but not defeated. As the years rolled by Islam once again spread its leathery wings to darken the civilized world. Through violence and deception Islam has spread to virtually every nation on Earth.
In current times, Islam still commits acts of unthinkable barbarism against the innocent. With videos of beheadings transmitted all over the world, the devastating attack in New York on September 11, 2001, the recent bombings in Madrid and London… haven't we had enough? Isn't it time that we recognize that Islam is not a religion, but rather a means of world conquest? It doesn't matter if people like Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein actually believe in Allah. In truth I doubt that Mohammed believed. Mohammed saw an opportunity to become a world power and twisted the minds of men to serve his evil purposes. He was a fraud and I find it incredible that 1400 years after his death, that fraud is still being inflicted upon the world.
The time has come to cease being tolerant of Islam. It is a false religion, based upon a false god and the teachings of a false prophet. We absolutely must see Islam for what it is: The Enemy of All Humanity.
Allah's Apostle said, "The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I (Mohammed) am His Apostle, cannot be shed except in three cases: In Qisas for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and leaves the Muslims."

Great read, thanks!

One correction:
The quote at the end is not from Qur'an.
It is from hadith, the collection Sahih Bukhari.
But that places it on a level of authority just below the Qur'an.
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/bukhari/083.sbt.html
But if you would like to use Qur'an on apostasy, you can use this:
[4.88] What is the matter with you, then, that you have become two parties about the hypocrites, while Allah has made them return (to unbelief) for what they have earned? Do you wish to guide him whom Allah has caused to err? And whomsoever Allah causes to err, you shall by no means find a way for him.
[4.89] They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they fly (their homes) in Allah's way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper.
The hadith simply clarify and expand this point.
'Nuf said?
Thanks again. This should be posted on all Islam-Muslim "religion of peace" threads!

There is a simple answer to that: Go to the indicated passages from the provided links and read them in context. Then google them and read what Muslim scholars and critics say about them. (Read some of my other posts where I answer certain arguments.) Then you won't be caught short with nothing but a quote you read somewhere.
Yeah I have heard that, but it's not true, there were muslims also in the religion. And basically 6 of 1, 1/2 a dozen of the other, both want you dead.
See my profile page! ;-)
Nothing holy about it.
Muslims would not be part of the worship of Kali.
Thuggee (or tuggee) (from the Sanskrit root sthag (Pali, thak), to conceal, mainly applied to fraudulent concealment) was an Indian cult, operating from the 13th to the 19th centuries, worshipping Kali whose members were known as Thugs. It was allegedly a hereditary cult with both Muslim and Hindu members that practiced large-scale robbery and murder of travellers by strangulation. Induction was typically passed from father to son, with the women of the household being kept ignorant of the cult activity.
Though they themselves trace their origin to seven Muslim tribes, Hindus appear to have been associated with them only in the early days of Islam; at any rate, their religious creed and staunch worship of Kali, the Hindu goddess of destruction, showed no Islamic influence. Assassination for gain was a religious duty for them, and was considered a holy and honorable profession, in which moral feelings did not come into play.
AHEM, this is not the point I was trying to make, The point was even if they were red headed,midget sumo wrestlers these assholes want to kill us! 6 of 1, 1/2 a dozen of the other. (and I don't want to hear from the red headed sumo midgets now.)
Here is another ...
Thugee completely transcended both religion and caste, normally insurmountable barriers in Indian society. The following remarkable exchange, which took place between Sleeman and a Muslim Thug named Sahib Khan, is revealing in this connection:
Sleeman: You are a Musulman?
Khan: Yes, most of the Thugs of the south are Musulmans.
S: And you still marry; inherit; pray; eat and drink according to the Koran; and your paradise is to be the paradise promised by Mahommud?
K: Yes, all, all.
S: Has Bhowanee [Kali] been anywhere named in the Koran?
K: Nowhere.
S: Then has Bhowanee anything to do with your paradise?
K: Nothing.
S: She has no influence upon your future state?
K: None.
S: Does Mahommud, your prophet, anywhere sanction crimes like yours; the murder in cold blood of your fellow creatures for the sake of money?
K: No.
S: Does he not say that such crimes will be punished by God in the next world?
K: Yes.
S: Then do you never feel any dread of punishment hereafter?
K: Never; we never murder unless the omens are favourable; we consider favourable omens as the mandates of the deity.
S: What deity?
K: Bhowanee.
S: But Bhowanee, you say, has no influence upon the welfare or otherwise of your soul hereafter?
K: None, we believe; but she influences our fates in this world and what she orders in this world, we believe that God will not punish in the next.
where in Chicago are ya. I moved to Aurora 3 yrs ago.
..someone has no aspirations to ever work for the State Department...
LMAO! Now THAT'S funny!
And when one of them does get "lucky", millions of sane innocents become extremely unfortunate. It's the history of the World.
An excellent example of the human mind being able to reconcile contradictions for the sake of earthly wealth and power. A picture of Bill Clinton carrying a Bible comes to mind.
OOOOOHHHHHHH that is good!
I found the same article you are quoting from since your statement provoked me to look into it. Further evidence of the insanity of the Moslems though I presume they were into it more for robbery than religious reasons. Since robbery was the genesis of the whole ludicrous cult it was totally consistent with its past.
