every war in the name of religion is considered a "holy war" or jihad. One of the most difficult jihad's (by our teachings) is to fight against the evil within ones self. War against non-Muslims is a part of Islamic history but cuurent situation are misinterpretted by the Muslims and non Muslims, peace

It was the Americans and Pakistanis who introduced Jihad in the modern times. During the Soviet occupation of Afghanishan Americans funded, trained, equiped Religious warriors to fight against the infidels, the Soviets. According to American funded books it was the duty of true muslims to kill the Soviets. American funded textbooks thaught counting to Afghan children by counting the number of Soviets killed. This is something the American govt will not tell its public. Infact Osama Bin Laden, Taliban was a U.S creation to fight the Soviets. The Americans are paying the price of their own creation.

Long before that. It started in the old testament days BC. When tribes as they were called then started killing people because they didn't have the same beliefs. The Catholics and the Muslims and all of those people, pretty much keep it going for a while.
