"The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That's not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace."

The face of terror IS the face of Islam. The terrorists are interpreting Islam correctly, and carrying out exactly what the Koran says.

And no, Islam is not peace. I am almost sure this ROP stuff comes from a deliberate(?) mistranslation of the word Islam, that was then politicized. People mistake the word Islam from coming from salaam, which means "peace." It doesn't. The word for "to submit" is salama; to make it definite it becomes al-salama, but because of a grammar rule it's pronounced as-salama. Thus the word Islam was derived. It means "submit," not "peace," Mr. President. Learn some Arabic.

Remember the old Three Stooges episode when Curly is dressed like a sultan and he says “Salami, Salami, aahhh Baloney!”?
