<p>Shiite (Iran) and Sunni (Arabia)&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.what&#39;s the difference?</p>
<p>Here is some of what BOTH believe:&#8230;(In their Koran)&#8230;.</p>
<p>004.094 O ye who believe! When ye go abroad in the cause of Allah, investigate carefully, and say not to any one who offers you a salutation: &#8220;Thou art none of a believer!&#8221; Therefore carefully investigate. {they are to keep their intentions hidden</p>

<p>(where, exactly, Daniel,&#8230;..are you coming from?)</p>
<p>Daniel claims&#8230;.</p>
<p>&#8220;In sum, these polling numbers point to a small but not trivial base of constructive views in countries largely hostile to the West and Israel&#8221;</p>
<p>I beg to differ.None of those poles ever asked me about my views&#8230;&#8230;and I have no doubt &#8211; NONE WHATSOEVER &#8211; that I&#39;m not alone in my thoughts.</p>
<p>There is a person named Dillah&#8230;.who posted this statement on your site Daniel&#8230;.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.danielpipes.org/blog/2009/07/replacing-the-us-constitution-with-the-koran" rel="nofollow">http://www.danielpipes.org/blog/2009/07/replaci&#8230;</a> &#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p>here it is&#8230;.</p>
<p>Submitted by Dillah (United States), Sep 18, 2009 at 10:17</p>
<p>Salam Al Marayati claims&#8230;The Quran calls for freedom of religion: &#8220;Let there be no compulsion in matters of faith.&#8221; (Quran 2:256)</p>
<p>He&#39;s lying&#8230;.(a command that allows him to do so &#8211; is found in the Koran&#8230;004.094 &#8211; 003.028 )</p>
<p>The following is brutal&#8230;.</p>
<p>009.005 But when the forbidden months are past then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war. {chapter 9)</p>
<p>008.067 It is not fitting for a prophet that he should have prisoners of war [slay them first] until he hath thoroughly subdued the land. {Treason &#8211; not to mention, mass murder)</p>
<p>Salam Al Marayati will say &#8220;But that is only for Muslims&#39; lands. (heard it before)&#8230;. But his own Koran will call him a liar&#8230;.</p>
<p>004.101 When ye travel &#8211; through the earth &#8211; there is no blame on you if ye shorten your prayers, for fear &#8220;&#39;the unbelievers&#8221;&#39; May attack you: For the Unbelievers [non-muslims] &#8211; are unto you open enemies.</p>
<p>Also &#8211; Salam Al Marayati can not deny the fact that the Koran calls the Son of God an abomination&#8230;</p>
<p>037.151 Is it not that they say, from their own invention,</p>
<p>037.152 Allah has begotten children? but they are liars!</p>
<p>019.088 They say: (Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!</p>
<p>019.089 Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!</p>
<p>(According to the Koran &#8211; Jesus has no father)</p>
<p>005.051 O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them for friendship is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.</p>
<p>Racism&#8230;.</p>
<p>005.041 O Messenger! let not those grieve thee, who race each other into unbelief: whether it be among those who say &#8220;We believe&#8221; with their lips but whose hearts have no faith; or it be among the Jews,- men who will listen to any lie</p>
<p>002.065 And well ye knew those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath: We said to them: &#8220;Be ye apes, despised and rejected.&#8221; [The Jews and the Christians]</p>
<p>007.166 When in their insolence they transgressed all prohibitions, We said to them: &#8221; Be ye apes, despised and rejected.&#8221;</p>
<p>For the atheists who are happy with these facts, know &#8211; there are writings in the Koran that allow Jews and Christians to have 2nd class status. No such writings are in there for any of you.</p>
<p>Taught in the Koran:</p>
<p>Beheadings (047.004) &#8211; Racism (005.041) &#8211; Gang Rape (033.052) &#8211; Crucifixions (005.033) &#8211; Genocide (033.061) &#8211; Treason &#8211; (008.067)</p>
<p>Salam Al Marayati is lying, not because I say so &#8211; but because his own Koran says so.</p>
<p>Daniel, much of the time, I don&#39;t understand you. The Koran is on line for all to see. Those writings are perfectly clear &#8211; why do you think there are so many &#39;terrorists&#39; groups in the name of Islam who all have the same character?</p>
<p>If you welcome the so-called &#39;moderate&#39; muslims &#8211; then you&#39;re keeping the door open for their Koran to have free reign (and &#39;freedom of religion&#39; NEVER included the right for inciting followers to carry out violence)</p>
<p>This needs to be said (not for proselytizing!)&#8230;Fact: There is not one single Scripture in the New Testament that teaches humans to be violent with each other. None exist. It is the angels (not humans) that will carry out punishments&#8230;</p>
<p>Mat 13:49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels [NOT HUMANS] shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just</p>
<p>Now that the excuse that Christianity is no better (which is a lie) is removed&#8230;Carefully consider&#8230;</p>
<p>The Koran violates the US Constitution. The New testament does not.</p>
<p>Rom 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. {Beyond this &#8211; there is no other Christian Command.</p>
<p>But if the Rosie O&#39;Donnell&#39;s of America do not wake up &#8211; they&#39;re going to get everything they deserve &#8211; for shooting down those of us who tried to warn them.</p>
<p>The word love &#8211; does not appear anywhere in the Koran&#8230;.certainly not for non-muslims!</p>
<p>The God of the New Testament does not allow His followers to FORCE Christianity upon non-Christians.</p>
<p>But neither is He mocked &#8211; for that which we sow &#8211; that is what we&#39;ll reap.</p>
<p>Is it a good thing to be teaching the young these?&#8230;.</p>
<p>Beheadings (047.004) &#8211; Racism (005.041) &#8211; Gang Rape (033.052) &#8211; Crucifixions (005.033) &#8211; Genocide (033.061) &#8211; Treason &#8211; (008.067)</p>
<p>You be the judge</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8230;(end of Dillah&#39;s statement)</p>
<p>Where do you stand Daniel? (keep that answer to yourself&#8230;&#8230;for I will know what is in your heart by the words that come form your mouth)&#8230;..</p>
<p>Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I (Jesus) will spue thee out of my mouth.</p>

		<description>An American military intelligence official says Russia&#039;s pending sale of S-300 long-range missiles and S-300 launch platforms to Iran presents a &quot;decision point for Israel, since once the anti-aircraft system is in place it could deter any strike&quot; against Iran&#039;s nuclear sites. In this first gloomy statement, the American source did not rule out such a strike but implied it would be more difficult.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;State department spokesman Robert Wood said on Dec. 22: &quot;We have repeatedly made clear… that we would strongly oppose the sale of S-300.&quot; US officials warned the missiles installed within Iran&#039;s borders could reach American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and shift the Middle East military balance of power</description>

		<description>Thank you Mr. Pipes fopr your in-depth view of what&#039;s really happening out there!&lt;br&gt;However, Mr. Obama is going to continue to show off how he is a much more religious Moslem than all of them. He will continue to warn Israel against any preemptive strike, because it may cause the death of his fellow Muslims.&lt;br&gt;How terrible Mr. Obama will look if he allows Jews to kill Muslims!!!!</description>

		<description>Suppose that in the 1960&#039;s, China were to have posed a grave threat to the Soviet Union. Chances are the Soviets would have loved for us or the Israelis to bomb Chinese nuclear facilities. But was Soviet communism that much better than Maoist communism? Likewise, is Saudi Wahabbi Islam that much, if any, less extreme than Iranian Shiite Islam? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When Iran and Iraq were at war in the 1980&#039;s, one could have said at the time, &quot;Its a shame thay can&#039;t both lose&quot;.</description>

		<description>There seems to be little awareness of the political and cultural effects if Iran where to acquire a nuclear and missile targeting capabilities that they would then have popularly perceived as being imminently able to take out any European capital in a mushroom cloud  I would expect that in hand with a whole new qualitative magnitude of Iranian bluster and stalking threat it would galvanizing effects it would further recruit and galvanize activist elements in their Muslim populations and tempt others to convert as the only means of escaping imminent destruction by an enemy who will portray itself  scornful of a hoary MAD doctrine as a welcome  precursor to Paradise and their own parting shots of mingling mushroom clouds over Europe. And where the rest of the world if Europe and many of its millions become the steps to the higher echelons&lt;br&gt;of the Hereafter?  &lt;br&gt;As for US preventative attacks by a Nobel laureated President who supports Turkey&#039;s membership of the EU and who says Jesus’pbuh’ (see Cairo speech) Israel would be forewarned of the economic and other repercussions of them undertaking any unilateral action –it is unlikely.&lt;br&gt;Anyway, Iran and co-religionists needs a ‘bad’ Israel as the causus belli and Palestine as the secularised suffering on the cross as the leit motif to excite the ostentatious compassion of the dominating liberals(sic) elites.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ma-mad-jihad believes that his role in life is to bring the conflict of war onto the Jews so that the 12th Imam will rise from his well.&lt;br&gt;He has spent $30 million decorating this well in preparation for the event.&lt;br&gt;Iran is on track and the world must intervene, I don&#039;t care who does it but it&#039;s time to stand up and squash this mad little tyrant.</description>

		<description>Are the Gulf states willing to make peace with Israel in exchange for the “ Nuke Umbrella” ?&lt;br&gt;One cannot help but think of the Iranian president&#039;s close parallels to Hitler, who ultimately brought disaster upon the world, his own people, and himself. Just as the West today fears that nuclear weapons in the hands of this irrational leader could lead to a worldwide apocalypse, the West also feared expanded Nazi military aggression so much that it put Hitler&#039;s systematic annihilation of the Jews on the backburner as described at : &lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01/nuclear-power-and-anti-semitism.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>Instead of American and Israel attacking Iran I think Egypt and Saudi Arabia should do it.They need to pull their weight in this conflict or at the very least show us they are slightly on our side. Hvaing said that, I think attacking Iran would be the dumbest move right now. As for these Muslims who you say like us and wouldn&#039;t mind us attacking Iran we must never forget the practice of taqqiya.</description>
