Surah 61:9-He it ia who has sent his messenger (Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam) To make it victorious over all other religions even though the Mushrikun (non-beleivers) hate it.
Burst out your handy dandy Korans and hooked on phonics tapes and let's read along boys and girls. It's in black and white.
What do you Muslims have to Jedi mind bend the meaning of this surah?
Some things are literal and a four legged mammal that says "meow" is a feline, not a canine.

*Yawn* See, you present FACTS, and Muslims cannot be troubled to give a straight answer. Denial, denial, denial. It's all right there in the Koran, your Koran. Tsk, tsk.

Islam is used by certain people for their own ends, including attempts to dominate their neighbours.
Just like Christianity has certain hypocritical elements especially if taken out of context, so to does Islam.
But islam itself is no more going to dominate the world than you or I are.
They do not have even 1 central authority, they kill each other even more aggressively than they do Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists. In fact the only thing most Muslims seem to agree on is that the Amadiyya Muslims are the worst people on the planet!
The violence we see now is important for two reasons, one real, one only a media illusion.
The media illusion is that we aresaturated daily with the violence from relatively remote parts of the world and it in no way represents how 90%+ of how muslims actually live.
The more fundamental truth is that Islam, like all oraganized religions is becoming marginalized in our increasingly secular world. The old men who run these faiths are aware and afraid of losing their power, so they fight back as best they can with what they have, which is almost nothing.
They have no real armies, so they send out waves of despondent young men to their futile deaths. In another generation or so, secular Muslims will take over the Islamic world and will only be interested in profit, not religion.
just like the other power brokers in the world.
We are just watching the growing pains of a medeival society becoming a modern one. It is really not that different from what Europe went through the last couple of centuries.

If you really try to understand what Islam is you would not say according to this Surah they mean world domination, this means try to get other people to accept the religion and if they do it is good if not it is upto them. Although I am not a Muslim but there is no Holy book which teaches to be violent, cruel, and hate fellow human beings it is the people Muslims or any other religion who have twisted and turned what is written in any Holy Scripture to fit their means to an end and justify their action however wrong they are.

Yes! I'm Muslim and don't believe in double-standards.
But then that's OK. Look at what the Christians have done. I believe that Islam is following the footsteps of Christianity.
The two world wars...... do you think it was a 'gift' of Islam? the crusades...... do you think it to be the handiwork of Muslims?
Every religion is out to seek power, political power. Therefore, Islam is no different.

Isn't it the ultimate goal of any religion i.e Christian Relgion?
The God's religion always invites others to good and forbidd evil, so it's expected from Islam to invite others to the True Path!

What right do you have to interpret the Holy Quraan? If Muslims did dominate the world it would be a much better place than it is now, with murderers like Bush, Blair and Olmert around killing innocent people.G8 countries not giving a damn about the millions starving in Africa ( I AM AFRICAN AND LIVING IN AFRICA) , Iraq and Afghanistan worse off than they were under the old regime...................................................................... Back to your question, NO Islam does not want to dominate the world it seems as if though the world wants to dominate us, but will never get it right.

It's the only one of the three monotheistic religions that believes in 'forced' conversions.
