Quran 2:217 They will ask thee about fighting in the sacred month. [202] Say: "Fighting in it is an awesome thing; but turning men away from the path of God and denying Him, and [turning them away from] the Inviolable House of Worship and expelling its people there from - [all this] is yet more awesome in the sight of God, since oppression is more awesome than killing." [Your enemies] will not cease to fight against you till they have turned you away from your faith, if they can.
Why do you think the Quran creates this absurd paranoia here? What enemy of anyone, is so relentless, that they will never ever ever "cease to fight against you till they have turned you away from your faith"?
Even Satan would take a break every once in a while, if that myth were true.
Im thinking that the writer of the Quran creates this "enemy" and max's out the hatred and fear of this manufactured "enemy" because it keeps the sheep in the flock and closed off to the "enemy".

fighting is an awsome thing??
you need to lay off the crack pipe.
Quran 2:217. They ask you concerning fighting in the Sacred Months (i.e. 1st, 7th, 11th and 12th months of the Islâmic calendar). Say, "Fighting therein is a great (transgression)[51] but a greater (transgression) with Allâh is to prevent mankind from following the Way of Allâh, to disbelieve in Him, to prevent access to Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (at Makkah), and to drive out its inhabitants, and Al-Fitnah[52] is worse than killing. And they will never cease fighting you until they turn you back from your religion (Islâmic Monotheism) if they can. And whosoever of you turns back from his religion and dies as a disbeliever, then his deeds will be lost in this life and in the Hereafter, and they will be the dwellers of the Fire. They will abide therein forever."

The only way to answer this is to popularize a new kind of porno that features Muslim women getting throttled by aspiring community college rappers.
I think that ultimately, that would temper attitudes and stabilize the hostilities between Islamic countries and the West.
