Aside, Islam is not the enemy. People who kill in the name of Islam are.

One of the doctrines of Islam is to kill in the name of Islam.

Islam is the enemy and you need to open your eyes.

Islam is the enemy and you need to open your eyes.

that, I will wager, constitutes a very sophomoric read of the doctrine.

It can be argued that Christianity teaches the killing of unbelievers, but no Christian with any sense would call it Christian doctrine.

I've heard the Koran quotes that are usually cited to support the radical view, btw.

All right, I know I'm going to feel the heat on this. It is easy to take a cursory look at the popular Koran quotes and assume that Islam is the enemy. I did this beginning on 9/11. And I confess I haven't read the Koran, nor do I want to.

But, you can't punish people for their religious beliefs. You can punish them for murder. And that's what the rule of law provides for.
