You’ve mischaracterized Bush’s position. You will never find a quote from him saying “Islam is peace,” though you may find many indicating that Islam has traditionally been a peaceful religion.

And I believe the president is right about that. Muslims have until relatively recent times, lived in peace around the world and in the US. It is only over the past 30 years or so that radical Islamists have tried to hijack this religion.

The president is 100% correct to point out the distinction between Islam as a religion and Islamists as terrorist enemies.

Oh really? Well here ya go, an official press release from the White House, on the white house website :

"Islam is Peace" Says President Remarks by the President at Islamic Center of Washington, D.C.

Quote: The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That's not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don't represent peace. They represent evil and war.

Read a passage recently. It went something like this.

Other than killing and murdering people, raping, pillaging, treating children and women as property, abusing other Muslims and expressing zero tolerance for anyone who speaks out against Mohammad, can you name one relevant thing Islam has given the human race in the last 1200 years?
