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.

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. …

freedom of speech allows a rebuttal. I often wondered why billboards aren’t used more.

> You forgot female mutilation as a basic tenet.

I think that's one of the torture() subroutines.

void torture()
{
   /* lots of mayhem here */

   if (female) {
      mutilate_genitals();
      
      if (disobedient)
         beat_mercilessly();

      if (becomes_westernized)
         kill();
   }

   /* lots more mayhem for non-females */
}

Simply not true.

Read the Koran.

I don’t need billboards to tell me what Islam really is, I have headlines for that.

You missed a closing bracket before “while(areAlive);”

Hah! You got me. Does that mean I have to buy the pizza next code review?

taqiyyah,
in Islam, the practice of concealing one’s belief and foregoing ordinary religious duties when under threat of death or injury.

Lying to non-Muslims in advance for Islam is allowed till Judgment Day Quran 3:28, 16:106

It is fine to deceive the infidels. They are just pigs anyways. In fact, al-Taqiyyah of the Qur'an compels protection of Islam by deception.
