Islamic Cleric: “Islam is Not a Religion of Peace?”
Canada Free Press ^ | 01/10/15 | Leigh Bravo

Posted on 01/10/2015 8:38:10 AM PST by Sean_Anthony

When a leader of the Muslim community stands up and defends the murder of innocents in the name of Islam, we all need to listen, take him at his word, and respond appropriately

There was a post trending on Facebook yesterday. A commentary by a British Muslim Cleric, Anjem Choudary, in the USA Today, defending the Paris terrorist attack on the publication, Charlie Hebdo.

Why would the USA Today give a voice to a Muslim cleric who thinks the Paris attack was well deserved? Why does the US press always give front page coverage to those who have done harm, intend to do harm, or support those who do harm? Can they not grasp the concept that giving a voice to our enemies gives them the power they believe they deserve? Does the media understand that when they give our enemies a voice it allows them to draw in more support from the very people who want us dead?

In the opinion piece, Choudry claimed that people “know the consequences”of speaking ill of Mohammad. He further confirmed what we, in the public, have known all along, but our leadership refuses to acknowledge,

“Contrary to popular misconception, Islam does not mean peace but rather means submission to the commands of Allah alone. Therefore Muslims do not believe in the concept of freedom of expression, as their speech and actions are determined by divine revelation and not based on people’s desires.”

What is a Muslim cleric? The dictionary defines it as a “ulema,” meaning, “Muslim scholars trained in Islam and Islamic law.”

More relevantly, why would anyone subscribe to a newspaper that consistently defends the indefensible?

Islam is evil.

The war against Islam will not be won physically, but rhetorically, if the West is brave enough to speak openly about the contradictory and inherently violent nature of Islam’s edicts.

Many come Christ because his words have an indubitable authority. People, by far, come into Islam because they are born into it, or threatened with death. A faith that uses force is not a faith, it is a tyrant’s decree.

Very simple answer. The US government is corrupted. The US media is corrupted. Both need to be removed. They have aligned with our enemies.

“Contrary to popular misconception, Islam does not mean peace but rather means submission to the commands of Allah alone.”

That right there tells you everything you need to know. As far as muslims are concerned, you must submit, period.

I will not.

We know that here on FR.

Somebody explain it to the Republicrats.

"When a leader of the Muslim community stands up and defends the murder of innocents in the name of Islam, we all need to listen, take him at his word, and respond appropriately..."

Yes! by all means lets respond accordingly and appropriately. That would involve a .45 hollow point applied directly to the forehead of said miscreant. Comments?

This leads to the obvious question as to why, in times of increased terrorist activity, the Obama administration would welcome in a record number of Muslims.

Obama has a lifetime background and examples of disliking this country.
His presidency is based on weakening it, and destroying it.
Importing this Muslim cancer guarantees future problems for this country after he is out of office. -tom

This photo fills me with the strong urge to put a bullet through the head of the savage on the left.

Muslims: We want all non-Muslims to submit or die.

Conservatives: Listen to what the Muslims are saying, they all want all non-Muslims to submit or die.

Liberals: Listen to what we are saying, that Islam is a religion of peace.

Of the three groups, can you pick out the group that is mentally defective?

That was the most important thing that came out of the interview. It was an influential muslim leader telling the truth about the goal of Islam.

It should be broadcast far and wide and taught in every American classroom.

Bush and Obama both have said that it is a religion of peace. This imam needs to pay closer attention, as he obviously doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Shari’ah law is a doctrine of ideology that is codified in that mishmash of contradictory interpretations of the Koran, with draconian punishments and totally lacking any appeal process for the decisions.

Nothing to do with an actual deity at all.

Same cleric was on Hannidy. Hannidy did a good job of making him answer some tough questions. I hope the liberals who get all wee wee’d up over Christians refusing to bake cakes for gays heard this guy admit Islam demands them be killed.

Since that photo has been on the internet for years, the little girl has probably whelped six or eight just like their papa. Poor girl. You’ll now need more than one bullet, unfortunately.
