The origins of the Great War of 2007

Oh, jeez, and back to the "hey The Bible is violent too" argument.
Typical tourettes from someone who pretends we don't know who Al Qaeda is.

I'm not sure you understand what I'm saying here. When it comes to issues of self rightessnous, and the acceptance of other religions there is little ambigouty. Ask a Muslim. It's like asking a Jew if they believe in Jesus...they might give you a diplomatic answer, but Jesus means nothing to a religious Jew.

I've long argued that the Koran is mainly prose, so certainly it's a matter of interpretation. So now, how is it being interpretated by the majority of Muslims, Ziggy ? Are Wahhabist just fringe? One has to look at world politics to find out. One has to ask American Muslims, who are neither fundamentalists, nor extremists (in most cases) how they feel about it. The basics tenants of being a Muslim are not up for debate. Are they peacefull ? Yes....but in the next breath they will explain, and rationalize the reasons for the actions of those you dub as extreme. They will tell you exactly where in the Koran these ideas come from.... and there is a long history of it. This is the Islamic paradox.
