The print versions of the Holy Quran being sold in western countries have been significantly altered to make it look like it is a religion of peace.
IMHO Bush was hoodwinked this way.
In bookstores is a very expensive, beautifully bound in green leather Holy Koran. If one was going to give a gift to someone, like a President, a senator, a judge, a Pope or any other high "ranking" person in society, it is what you would buy.
Every page was in Arabic on the left side, and English on the right. The English side was just like the other modern ones sold in the USA, all the "bad" stuff left out so one would think it is a "religion of peace".
I have a non Muslim friend who is fluent in spoken and read Arabic. I asked him to come to the bookstore with me, because I was too cheap to buy the book.
I pointed out the sura I mentioned, and a few others, plus there were some he was familiar with he wanted to check. (he had spent quite a few years in Saudi-Arabia as a civilian). I have never seen the expression that came on his face before. Absolute shock.
He had only seen true versions before too. He said, "My God, they are two different books". I remember those exact words. I don't remember the rest of his comments word for word, but he went on to say, that this explains why so many people in our government have the wrong idea about Islam.
Every non Muslim (infidel) needs to read a true translation of the Holy Koran. Then they might understand why this is happening and why it will never stop happening.
Western leaders make the mistake of thinking everyone else in the world thinks the way we do and is motivated by the same things.
Most Muslims in particular, don't and aren't.
IMHO these are probably the most accurate translations, and they are FREE.
Sort of like this except in this book the second half is in English...

It makes me wonder what is it about Semitic types that want to take over U.S./the world?
Excellent, accurate and true post. People do NOT want to understand NOR listen.
Over the years I’ve become more and more convinced that George W Bush was truly a Manchurian Candidate
