ISLAM AGAINST TERRORISM: THE HOLY QURAN VERSES

Thanks for the article sxb, it sure is enlightening. Keep up the good work.
I disagree With issues people call Islamic terrorism.
I think the “the Christians do it too so why are you blaming us” point needs to be made. Why is the Lord’s Resistance Army not “Christian Terrorism”?
Why is the headscarf that conservative Jewish women wear not called a headscarf? There’s a difference between this and saying that oppression (etc) is okay; this is an argument about perception and representation.
Karen Armstrong brought this up when she lectured last year in Cairo; she said that when she was growing up as a Catholic in England when the IRA was bombing London on a weekly basis, *no one* talked about “Catholic terrorism”.
Now, I have no issue calling Islamic terrorism Islamic terrorism, as long as we’re calling Catholic terrorism Catholic terrorism and Hindu terrorism Hindu terrorism.
Or we can all become enlightened and stick to “terrorism committed by fanatics whose creeds are almost incidental because their methods–kill men abroad, oppress women at home, and prosper–are identical.” But I’m not holding my breath for that day.
Call it Islamic terrorism and Islamic repression of women, and welcome, as long as you’re beating everyone else with the same stick. It’s the hypocrisy that drives me nuts.
