His statement that "Islam is not a well-meaning religion dedicated to peace and coexistence" finds no credible support in the Koran or the historical record.

What planet did this guy come from? History is littered with the corpses of those who did not want to embrace the religion of Muslim conquerers. I was going to write up a big, thoughtful retort to this yahoos statement. Then I thought, "what's the use, I'm preaching to the chior, here".

Waste of your time, even if it reaches him. He's using propaganda and knows it.

I was once a defender of Islam until I heard tapes of one of the local priests: one sermon for American sheep about tolerance (Islam is a religion of peace) and right on its heels, another for the faithful (Jihad jihad jihad). Its their MO.

beheadings
murder (repeated) women and children
