Dozens of billboards with Muslim themes are sprouting nationwide, proclaiming what organizers say is the true message of Islam and its prophet, Muhammad: peace and justice, not extremism and violent jihad.

The New York-based Islamic Circle of North America has erected 100 new billboards over the summer that feature statements such as: “Muhammad believed in peace, social justice, women’s rights” and “Muhammad always taught love, not hate; peace, not violence.” Also listed are a website and a phone number people can call for more information.

They are in cities including Boston; New York; Phoenix; San Diego; El Paso and Austin, Texas; Memphis, Tennessee; Cleveland; Las Vegas; Milwaukee; North Bergen, New Jersey; Portland, Oregon; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Denver; and Calgary, British Columbia. …

Yeah right, guys. Some of us have actually read the Koran and Hadiths and even compared them to the Bible when necessary. That makes your lies just too transparent.

100 Billboards? That hardly amounts to a declaration of support of the Constitution.Muslims need caliphates, and the USA will never knuckle under.

Islam will never be a religion of peace. Some of the Umma may want peace or be peaceful, but the religion itself will never be peaceful.The religion can never accept the supremacy of our Constitution.

Islam is a religion whose very tenants are based on war and conquest. These billboards are part of a demographic warfare
campaign.

Islam’s message is simple.

The Five Pillars of Islam plus one...

Torture.
Kill.
Rape.
Steal.
Recruit.
Repeat.

Are they putting these billboards up in the segregated city of Mecca? If not, they won’t do $#!& to ‘reclaim Islam’s message’.

They need to be changing the minds of Islamic supremacists around the world, not kufir in the West.

quote “Muhammad always taught love, not hate; peace, not violence”

what?

Muhammad was a bloodthirsty warlord who killed thousands, hated everyone and always resorted to violence!

Over a generation now have been stuffed with the "religion of peace" bit, and how many of them remember 9/11/01?

Strike off the heads of the disbelievers Koran 47:4

Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them. Koran 2:191

Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam Koran 5:33

Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water; melt their skin and bellies. Koran 22:19

Kill Kill Kill!

The “religion of peace” is nothing but death and hatred.

Well, the small footnote is really hard to read on large billboards: “Void where infidels are concerned. Death to Western Culture!”

Muhammad spread his religion by the sword. He spent his life doing this. PERIOD.

Yup. Pure bs.

They should have had these signs all around the WTC so those dying could reaffirm the love felt for them just before they went.

I can’t imagine what kind of simpleton would be converted to Islam by a billboard.

Americans should put up billboards along side the Moon God Worshipers’ billboards with selected Koranic and Hadithic quotes.
