I love this. The reporter can't believe Graham wouldn't back down when challenged! There as a day, not so many decades ago, when people were looked up to for standing up for their beliefs when challenged! Now it's all about backing down if someone cries, Foul!

Graham on Sunday wouldn't back away from his recent statement ... But he did not take back the controversial comments

what about these verses from Koran that don't show any violence at all:

forgive Jews who distort the Qur'an, 5:13

So because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard. They change the words from their (right) places and have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them.[] And you will not cease to discover deceit in them, except a few of them. But FORGIVE THEM, AND OVERLOOK (THEIR MISDEEDS). Verily, Allâh loves Al­Muhsinûn (good­doers - see V.2:112).

forgive non-believers, 31:15,

But if they (both) strive with you to make you join in worship with Me others that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not, but BEHAVE WITH THEM IN THE WORLD KINDLY, and follow the path of him who turns to Me in repentance and in obedience. Then to Me will be your return, and I shall tell you what you used to do.

45:14

Say (O Muhammad SAW) to the believers TO FORGIVE those who (harm them and) hope not for the Days of Allâh (i.e. His Recompense), that He may recompense people according to what they have earned (i.e. to punish these disbelievers, who harm the believers).

treat non-belligerent non-believers with equity, 60:8

Allâh does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion and did not drive you out of your homes. Verily, Allâh loves those who deal with equity.

protect them if they ask you to, 9:6

And if anyone of the Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) seeks your protection THEN GRANT HIM PROTECTION, so that he may hear the Word of Allâh (the Qur'ân), and THEN ESCORT HIM TO WHERE HE CAN BE SECURE, THAT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE MEN WHO KNOW NOT

I bet Graham didn't read these or he just did it based on his hatred towards Islam.
