Why does Allah condone terrorism?

Question

008.012 Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you:
give firmness to the Believers: I will instill terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers:
smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."

Answer 1

There is a little more complex of an answer to this.

The fictitious being of Allah is, in essence, a mixture between a Bedouin moon goddess of Mohammed's cult, and a bastardization of the Judeo-Christian God. So, going on from that point, who was Mohammed? For all intents and purposes, he was a brigand. You can say he was a great prophet, you can say he was a great warrior, and that's fine, but at his barest, he was a brigand. All prophets came with their own flaws and errors - Moses was a murderer, Noah passed out naked and drunk, Adam essentially invented sin, there is no Prophet in Judeo-Christian texts that is himself perfect, and if the Muslims wish to be taken seriously, they must understand that Mohammed himself was no exception.

So, Mohammed, being a brigand, did things that were brigandish. He would rob caravans, raid merchants, all that wonderfully fiendish stuff that goes with the Robin Hood theme. This clearly had an influence on his writings as the "Prophet" of "Allah", and it appealed to his fellow brigands.

The use of militarism and "terror" in the Quran essentially reflects the culture in which the Quran was written - in fact there's an entire Surrah who's entire premise is to explain how to appropriately distribute loot from brigandry and raiding of caravans.

So in essence, "Allah" condones terrorism, because "Allah" was written in a climate where Mohammed needed a divine justification for his militancy against regional governments and merchanting guilds.

Allow me to point you to some better quotes in the Quran than stated above however, that are not necessarily taken out of context:

5:51, 1:91, 9:123, 4:43, 5:51, 2:161, 8:12, 9:111, 47:35, 10:25, 3:121, 2:216, any of those should give you a bit clearer of a look into the character of Allah that was created for Mohammed's fantasy. If you really want to find something funny, look into the various Hadiths, and the rules for what to do when "Hadiths contradict one another".

Answer 2

"O ye soldiers, Kill every vitnamiees that you find." That was the word of commander of US army during the Vitnam war. He meant to capture and Kill the vitnamies that fight against US. Suppose if vitnamies were to quote that order today without context, how terrorist the US would be......
Likewise there is a reason and a context behind every verse.
