The uprooting and destruction of Christian communities in Iraq has sent shockwaves through social media and throughout the world.

What is particularly infuriating about the tragic fate of Iraqi Christians is that they had remained neutral in the ongoing conflict. They did not form militias of their own, nor did they part in acts of violence against either side.

Still, the ISIS-controlled parts of Iraq have been cleansed of their Christian inhabitants. Each time a heinous crime is committed in the name of Islam, social and traditional media become awash with declarations that “Islam is innocent of such acts.”

A look at Islam’s holy book, the Quran, may qualify the vehement displays of innocence. The following verses are cases in point:

Anyone who takes time to actually read the Quran before stipulating what Islam is or is not will find that similar verses abound; militant groups readily cite these verses to legitimize their actions. In other words, the anti-Christian and anti-Jewish verses of the Quran have direct implications on how jihadists think and behave. Arguing, therefore, that Islam has little to do with atrocities committed in its name is simply unconvincing.

It’s hard to understand how libs can say that he jihadis are just a small, unrepresentative group of muslilms when this is the official state position of so many Islamic countries.

The smaller editions should have thinner paper & thus be more suited to the use intended. It may take more pages,but should be less harsh to your skin.

Liberals create their own vision of reality. It has little connection with fact.

“Islam is innocent of such acts.'

As long as it continues to work, they will use it.
