Vosselaar, 4th January 2006 - First of all, I wish all my readers a very Happy New Year. In the justification for the writing of my book "A Holy Terror", I mention an unavoidable clash between the "Preachers of Love" and the "Preachers of Hate". Everyone knows that I mean Christians and Muslims. Let me be very clear, that this has nothing to do with racism or some form of discrimination. I am convinced, that all human beings, no matter to what race they belong, or what colour they have, are equal, no race is superior to another. On the other hand, there are considerable differences between the civilizations and cultures. Very short, I will try to give some evidence that proves my posing. On my Website: http://www.westernfreedom.com, I will, in the near future, give full proof of the truth of my assertion.

"The Day of Judgment will not begin until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them. behind me, come and kill him! '(al-Bukhari 2926).

Jesus offers the gift of salvation to the world (John 10:14-16). Gentiles are part of the Bride of the Messiah and are deeply loved by Him (Eph.3:1-6; 5:22-27). Yet Allah commands: 'Take not Jews and Christians as friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people!' (Surah 5:51).

'O believers! Do not take my enemy and your enemy for friends. Would you offer them love while they deny what has come to you of the truth' because you believe in Allah your lord? If you go forth in jihad on my path and seeking my pleasure, would you manifest love to them? I know what you conceal and what you manifest; and whoever of you does this, he has indeed gone astray from the straight path' (Surah 3:28; Surah 60:1).

"It is a 'divine' commandment to persecute Jews and Christians, to defeat them in battle and then to consign them either to slavery or to death" (Surah 8:39; 9:5,29: 47:4).

"God has rejected and cursed the Jews and the Christians." (Surah 2:89,105,213;9:30).

Islam teaches about a future world battle between Islam Western Christianity. Islamic forces will conquer the West. Secularists will have a simpler choice; conversion to Islam or the death penalty. The fate of the Jews is the clearest; they will simply be slaughtered.

Mohammed once was asked: 'What is the best deed for the Muslim next to believing inAllah and his messenger?' His answer was: 'To participate in jihad in Allah's cause''.Mohammed taught that jihad warfare is the sacred duty of all Muslims. Islam must strive andfight until the nations are forced to bow every knee to Allah. I have been ordered to fight with the people till they say, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah'' (al-Bukhari 4:196).

Rather than Jesus' commandment to love one's enemy, Allah commands Muslims to hate their enemies: 'O you who believe! Do not take my enemy and your enemy for friends: would you offer them love while they deny what has come to you of the truth, driving out the apostle and yourselves because you believe in Allah your lord? If you go forth struggling hard in my path and seeking my pleasure, would you manifest love to them? And I know what you conceal and what you manifest; and whoever of you does this, he indeed has gone astray from the straight path' (Surah 60:1)

Conclusion: Not love, but suspicion, rejection, condemnation and enmity towards Christians and Jews is a foundational part of Islam. Can we call this 'good and peaceful'? These are however Mohammed's own words in the Koran. Dangerous is however that what the West considers terrorism, most Muslims consider asIslamic heroism. No matter how the peaceful Muslim try turning the words, jihad in both Koran and the Hadith means armed warfare conducted against unbelievers.The totalitarian nature of Islam is clear ' its mandate is to conquer the entire world and force it at the point of the sword to submit to the 'one true faith', to the dictatorship of Allah against Jews, Christians and polytheists

There are many more statements expressing hate in the Koran. The Holy Book is however very confusing and not consistent as all the verses are ordered according length. I have more and more the idea that the Prophet collected his "wisdom" during his youth while traveling with the merchant's caravans from the Lebanon to the Arab Peninsula and in this way came in contact with Judaism and Christianity. Even his "Seven Heavens" are borrowed from a very old Jewish legend. This would however lead us too far and I will work it out in my website.
