Trouble is, most of Islam doesn't really want the rest of us to "understand" what they're about. If we did, it would result in mass explusion, at the very least. So everyone (for the most part) pretends that it's a "religion of peace."
Exactly! This is more than an "ideological difference", Islam intends to conquer the world and set up a Caliphate; and kill all those who refuse to convert. Those lefty wackjobs had better wake up and realize what's going on...this goes beyond ideology-it's a religious conflict, so the irreligious won't recognize the danger until it's too late.
