full title :Obama: “Islam prohibits terrorism, for the Qur’an says whoever kills an innocent, it is as if he has killed all mankind”

Obama said: "The Qur'an says whoever kills an innocent, it is as if he has killed all mankind."

This is what the Qur'an really says:

Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption in the land -- it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one -- it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, after that, throughout the land, were transgressors. (5:32)

First, note that this is not a general moral principle applying to everyone, as Obama implied, but one only for the Children of Israel. Nor is it is not a general prohibition of killing: there are big exceptions for those who kill "for a soul or for corruption in the land." And it concludes that even after this command was given, "many of them, after that ... were transgressors" -- so all it is really saying is that Allah gave a command to the Children of Israel and they transgressed against it. It isn't anything more than yet another Qur'anic castigation of the Jews.

Slay the unbeliever wherever you will find them.
Brak is putting out taqiyya.

Muslim = “Innocent”; Infidel not “Innocen”

The number of people who don’t understand that or don’t believe that to be the case is astounding.

What he failed to mention is that this proscription does not apply to infidels.

Those who rule during the Great Tribulation will be looking for a few of those men. In fact they assemble a 200 million man army. Satan hates people. ALL people. His followers don’t know that he hates them, too.

Would be nice if the leftists and the media got a full and complete face full of real Islam.
They wouldn’t survive it, but the video generated would be telling.

Depends on one's definition of "innocent". Radical muslims don't view non-muslims as innocent.

Islam defines “innocents” as “the believers”, fellow mulsims.

Non-believer are not innocent to a muslim and may be killed wherever they are found.

Infidels are, by definition, not innocent.

the Qur'an says whoever kills an innocent, it is as if he has killed all mankind.

The key word is "innocent". To a Qur'animal no Infidel is ever innocent.

The goal with his obviously false and ridiculous statements is to prop up obviously false and ridiculous statements about Christianity, IOW, to equate one with the other.
He is an A**hole!
There's also this -- I came across this quote on Former Dodger's profile:
Theodore Dalrymple, in a recent interview:
"Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to."

Islam does not recognize non-muslims as innocent.
