In reality, you will find all the translations you might run into to be pretty good, and some will be better than the Saudi translations because the use of English is better, but the benefit of the Saudi ones is that you are insulated somewhat against the arguments of Moslems that you have a false translation. If it is false then it is what the Sauds want you to read and so falsity is immaterial. It’s what the main authorities want you to know. It is the Sauds, after all. For your own enlightenment any edition will do and the cheaper the better so you are not contributing to Jihadist funds so much. Second hand ones are best.
Is this is the strategy? Conservatives need to be all over this lazy thinking, um, lack of thinking. Obama is off his rocker and the left goes along with it.
Not Imam, more like Sultan Hussein I.
Moslems do have it as their first duty to re-”organize communities.” They call it Jihad.
He isn’t saying anything that W didn’t about Islam.
The translations are basically honest. Moslems claim them all to be faulty or false because they are not in Arabic and that helps them lie to you about things. If you throw a citation at them they just say well that is false because it was not in Arabic. When Christian Arabs argue with them they are simply ignored because they do not get notice in the western media and they are regarded as Apostates and necessarily Liars even if they are exactly truthful because Apostates are Liars by definition.
We need to remember that there are at least TWO definitions of “peace.”
1. The absence of war or conflict. This is the one embraced by most free peoples of the world.
2. The absence of RESISTANCE to aggression, attack or policies, doctrines and ideologies with which one disagrees. This is the one held by most western liberals, communists (now called progressives and Democrats) and the islamofascists.
If the second definition prevails, it invariably leads to the third and final “peace” for the losers — that of the beheading sword, firing squad, bullet behind the ear, etc. and on to the graveyard or lime pit.
I actually know a few. They are Sufis (a very small sect), and they are persecuted as badly as Christians in Sunni and Shi’ite nations.
Various religions???? Again, Obama is nothing but a LIAR!
W was dense and didn’t think that Islam itself amounted to much. Hussein is a Moslem leader.
When confronted by one of those “All religions are the same” idiots just ask “Have you read the Torah? Have you read the New Testament? Have you read the Koran?” The answer is always “No.” Then you just say “Then you really do not know what you are talking about do you?” Shuts them right up, every time.
Fight the smears! These goons will be on FR before long trying to refute anyone who "slanders the prophet of islam".
Yes, indeed.
Sometimes they don’t shut up but their speech gets disjointed a bit. I have done that. Any more I try not to get into conversations with Moslems. It is futility. I used to try to be friends with Moslems who had shops near mine. They would drop in to talk and I reciprocated but after the 2nd or 3rd time the only topic possible was the necessity of my conversion to Islam. These were peaceable seeming guys. One of them even told me that when Islam really does come to America he would unfortunately probably have to kill me if I persisted in my error. I stopped talking to them and wouldn’t let them back into my shop.
Uncut video of Christians being beheaded... Very graphic.

Oh, they have tried. They tend to get zotted pretty quickly...
I have a question for Dumb’O - if all these radical islamists are not really muslims, why does he provide the GITMO prisoners korans, prayer rugs, halal food etc.?
