Islam is a religion of practicality. Everything about the religion is intended for the benefit of the end user. It is a religion of peace but gives full and precise instructions an how too deal with issues such as invading armies etc. Such rules are not too far off from the geneva convention. The rules are strict, you should look it up.

I can write you a whole book on why Islam beleives in peace. But the quotes should cover it for you:
take not life, which Allah hath made sacred, except by way of justice and law: thus doth He command you, that ye may learn wisdom
Quran, Al-Anaam Chapter 6 Verse 151
Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities. Lo! Allah loves not, aggressors
Quran, Al Baqara, Chapter 2 Verse 190
If you want to comeback with the BNP favourite quotes:
So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the pagans wherever you find them, and take them captive and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-due, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful
Quran Tawba Chapter 9 Verse 5
I suggest you read the quotes before it:
(But the treaties are) not dissolved with those Pagans with whom you have entered into alliance and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided any one against you. So fulfil your engagements with them to the end of their term: for Allah loves the righteous.
Quran Tawba Chapter 9 Verse 4
As you can now without a doubt see there were covenants and treaties in place which had been broken by some of the pagan tribes of Arabia. As you can plainly see war was not waged on tribes which had abided and kept true to their word and Allah clearly reminds us of that.
Kind of like when Hitler broke his wordby breaking the conditions in the Munich agreement.

true religion is about nothing but peace, but true religion is what God wanted us to know before man made as it is today, a lot of such as Islam has become for of hate, greed, it is now about brainwashing, and power. most of the things written in religion is about control, man taking control of women for one, making them look second best, some make them walk behind, wear stupid clothes, pray 5 times a day, why? you can pray anytime, anywhere, so why does it all have to stop just to pray, because man said so, that way there is control. There are true people of Islam who do have Faith in what they do, even though they have been brainwashed, and are peace loving

Why should it not believe in peace, every other religion professes to do so. And look how they have behaved. How would you feel if say Sudi Arabia invaded your country, you would resist them also. Self Defence is justified in such a case. Do not confuse the Islam religion with what those evil people are doing in it,s name. Millions of Islam people are just as disgusted with it as you ,me and the rest of the world.

As in all things there has to be a portion of Islam that are peaceful, faithful, normal religious people.
Even in Christianity we have the fringe, crazy elements. Theirs is just more frightening and
dangerous than ours.
And no I am not brainwashed.

it is one of those gray areas in Islam, Mohammed taught that infidels must be converted by the sword and so this must still be a major concept of Islam, and yet many Muslims have difficulty with this idea themselves, although those who are militant in thought would side with this and do.

I don't.
Hamas and Fatah called for a truce and it's Palestinine Muslims that are still firing rockets. Explain that. Explain why Palestine is now sending troops to stop it.
Explain why Muslims are killing Muslims in Iraq over the last 2 days. They haven't killed on US soldier in those bombings. It's about Sunni vs Shi ite.
Explain suicide bombings by Muslims.
I mean, I'll be honest with you, I can't explain the goings on in Northern Ireland, other than to say NEITHER SIDE is a Christian.
That's the difference between I and thou. We disavow them, you don't have the guts to say Osama stands alone and isn't representing Islam and is an afront to Islamics.
I have NO problem saying the Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland who bomb and kill are IDIOTS and not Christians.
