Allah is God. They follow the teachings of Muhammad their prophet.
Compare the recorded words/messages of Jesus and Muhammad however and they are nothing alike.
So a moderate Muslim is starting from a far more violent and warped point of view than moderates of other faiths whose prophets are...
Maybe I need to word it again. When the start of your whole belief system begins with a person who was a brutal warlord in his actions and thoughts then nothing good can ever come of it.
The prophet Muhammad WAS an extremist.
I'd love for you to tell me how an ideology created by an extremist...
You mean the guy with Aspergers who graduated from a learning centre that was a school for teenagers with learning disabilities or emotional issues and who had long term mental issues?
That guy?
Which mass murderers in the US? You'll have to be specific as they aren't one homogeneous group of people.
Unlike say Sunni Muslims who follow the teachings of the world's worst mainstream religious prophet.
What part of Muhammad being a Hitler/Stalin of his time and region doesn't register?
And it helps that Muhammad was a brutal warlord who left behind plenty of examples and really bad messages for them to follow on how to spread Islam. And of course what to do to people who defy you and won't convert.
They employed Guerilla warfare tactics. When faced against far bigger and superior forces it is a common tactic.
British forces helped organise and supply many guerrilla groups in WW2. Your military history is quite poor. Maybe read up on the British SOE.
This is your mind:
OK for us to...
I think they would have. They had reached their last resort moment at that time in history. Many felt there was little other option to achieve the ultimate goal with everything stacked against them in such an overwhelming manner.
Perhaps it's time to start using language like Sunni Muslims instead of just Muslims.
Fact is most of the Islamic trouble in Western Societies has come from the Sunni and not the Shi'a.
Shi'a are more like the IRA in so far as it's more about internal political struggles than simply a world...
Just as the IRA were attacking to gain an Irish state these Islamists are attacking the UK because they want the whole world to be an Islamic state.
There's a massive difference in the end goal of both ideologies.
Don't be so naive to think "moderate" Muslims don't hold extreme views.
