MUSLIM students training to be imams at a British college with strong Iranian links have complained that they are being taught fundamentalist doctrines which describe nonMuslims as “filth”. The Times has obtained extracts from medieval texts taught to the students in which unbelievers are likened to pigs and dogs. The texts are taught at the Hawza Ilmiyya of London, a religious school, which has a sister institution, the Islamic College for Advanced Studies (ICAS), which offers a degree validated by Middlesex University.
The students, who have asked to remain anonymous, study their religious courses alongside the university-backed BA in Islamic studies. They spend two days a week as religious students and three days on their university course.
The Hawza Ilmiyya and the ICAS are in the same building at Willesden High Road, North London — a former Church of England primary school — and share many of the same teaching staff. ... The text is one of a number of books that some students say they find “disturbing” and “very worrying”. Their spokesman told The Times: “They are being exposed to very literalist interpretations of the Koran. These are interpretations that would not be recognised by 80 or 90 per cent of Muslims, but they are being taught in this school.

YUM YUM!
The left is totally ignorant about the middle east and moslems of the world. THIS IS S.O.P.
It is only now the MSM can't conceal the truth about the cult of islam.
LOL! They call toilet paper: "My Left Hand!"
Wow! You mean hate speech isn't censored?
I don't mind being likened to a pig or a dog, especially dogs. I have a tiny bit of a problem with being compared to a pig (fat, you know), but many dogs I know are superior to some people I know.
Hey, if you really "bring home the bacon," why not?
But but, it's a religion of peeeeeeeeeeeace!
Well, like I always say, it's better to be lucky than good.
[G] Eight more miles and Louisville
Will [C] come in to my [G] view
Eight more miles on this old road
And I 'll [A] never more be [D] blue
I [C] knew some day that [G] I'd come back
I knew it from the [D] start
[G] Eight more [D] miles to [G] Louis-[C] ville
The [G] home town [D] of my [G] heart.
[G] There's sure to be a girl somewhere
That [D] you like best of [G] all
Mine lives down in Louisville
She's long and she is [D] tall
But [C] she's the kind that [G] you can't find
A ramblin' through the [D] land
I'm [G] on my [D] way this [G] very [C] day
To [G] win her [D] heart and [G] hand.
:-)
You have a point there.
Course when I look like one, that's easy too.
An oldie but goodie from the Freeper Wax Stax...
Still, a good country song needs to have something in it about trains, or pickup trucks ... :)
Definitely trains!
And before it's all over most of the rest of the muslims are going to be forced to chose sides as well...the terrorists will make sure of that.
I read where making up horrific tales is a part of their jihad, lies, any kind etc., the innocent can't do a thing about it, they depend on us to crush this insanity even if they still obey, why not? they will be killed if not, do you really think any intelligent Muslum believes all this dictating to them to do cruel things? They are human, cry, laugh, etc, and they know what is good and what is bad, the good can't voice their opinion, lets pray for them, things might change through prayer.
They most certainly are human, they cry, they laugh. It is clear that voicing a dissenting opinion very well may lead to one's death, so one might agree with your statement that they can't voice their opinion, although the truth of it is that they dare not, not that they can't. As for knowing what is good and what is evil, I think you may be missing that there is an element of spiritual blindness involved...and some might suggest outright brainwashing.
Be that as it may, I can agree with you in prayer for all the muslims around the world, rather they be radicals, quite moderates fearful for their lives or apostates afraid to confess their disaffection with Islam. We do have prayer and love that we can offer.
Me too.
