>>>"Religion of peace? Hardly. It's a cult of war, disguised as a religion."<<<< I think it was better put by John Keegan in A History of Warfare: "Muhammad, unlike Christ, was a man of violence; he bore arms, was wounded in battle and preched holy war, jihad, against those who defied the will of God, as revealed to him."

""Muhammad, unlike Christ, was a man of violence; he bore arms, was wounded in battle and preched holy war, jihad, against those who defied the will of God, as revealed to him." The quote is wrong. "Allah" is not the God of Abraham. It is not an Arabic word that means 'god'. Allah is Mohammads god's name. The Arabic word for 'god" is ilah. When Mohammad came back and slaughtered his own tribe and relatives, he just smashed down all the other rock gods, and claimed the "allah" rock as a single diety, thern placed the black rock in the side of the Kaba, which was basically a rock god shrine built from unhewn rocks piled around a watering hole with no roof. A far cry from what it looks like today.
Western journalists are stupid, so they mistake "Allah" for meaning god.
