Egypt's Al Azhar University, the world's leading institution of Sunni Islam, has welcomed the statement by Pope Francis that Islam is not responsible for terrorist violence.
Responding to the papal statement-- made during an exchange with reporters on his return flight after a visit to Poland-- Al Azhar said: "This statement reflects the pontiff's understanding of the true nature of Islam and its teachings of tolerance."

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam
John Quincy Adams on Islam
In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.
Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).
Stay behind your walls and don’t take in any Trojan Horses.
Behead those who call Islam violent!

Despite its Quran, Sharia Law and its other various biblical documents. Amazing.
With "gently smiling jaws," no doubt.
This is not the pope who is going to resist Islam, nor is he the pope who will evangelize Islam.
“I like you Sully. That’s why I’m going to kill you last”. - Arnold: Commando.
“Hey Sully? Remember when I said I was going to kill you last? I lied.....”
The pope is wearing a tinfoil hat, as well as Obama.
The pope just lied. He did so as one of his priests lay murdered at the altar. Now when he speaks of doctrine and theology, how can he be believed?
And on Sept 11, 2001, the God of Abraham, called men of faith to arms to defend the faithful against the abomination that is moslem.

Gives a different perspective on Islam’s connection to Catholicism.
Actually more like disheartening, disturbing, satanic...

I don’t know that this is true. I don’t know that it’s not true. I do know Satan is involved either way as he is the Father of Lies.
When I look at the fruit coming out of the Vatican it appears rancid in comparison to Biblical Scripture & teaching.
Islam is a Religion and incapable of violence; but its psychotic leaders and rabid followers can turn any idea into mindless violence.
The second group also do not live in the same country as the Muslims but are opposed to Islam, actively condemning or belittling Muslims or the religion. In this case, the Muslims are allowed to fight against them but only to the extent of making them aware that they should not become enemies of Islam and Muslims.
On their quest for knowledge, he said Islam demands its followers to master all knowledge of the world and the hereafter, not least the technology of modern weapons to strengthen and defend the community and faith. Mastery over modern weaponry, he said, was important to prepare for any eventuality or prejudices of the others, although Islam is a religion of peace that upholds love and good understanding.

It is simply the prophesied End-of-Years Ishmael-Esau alliance.
The mask is off. No one can claim they “didn’t know.”
