Read the Torah real slow just once. What Falwell said about Moses is Bravo Sierra. Moses was a violent man, a man of war in the strictest biblical sense. He is said to have led a band of men through the Israelite camp shortly after being freed from the Egyptians. He caught them worshipping Baal and slew near 3,000 of them. For this and other atrocities, G-d would not allow Moses to set foot upon the promised land and forced him to lead the Israelites through the Sinai for 40 years. Moses died within site of the Holy Land as promised by G-d.

Jews never forced anyone to read the Torah and never will. Nor are the hisory books full of bloodshed you read are Mein Kampfs because they do not proselytise either. You talk about it as if it was a proselytised religion, it is not. In fact, the fact that Moses was punished was because he erroneously proselytised.

Islam is inherently unappologeticaly proselytist to the utmost, using arms of all kinds and not repent.

No, I'm just pointing out someone's error in calling Moses peaceful. If you're going to debate the pros and cons of any belief system, at least have the facts right. I'll be the last person to defend Islamacists.
