Islam - religion of peace? Check with an authority

Here is a speech of Ayatollah Khomeini given in 1981 on the day of celebration of the birth of Muhammad.

His words seem to had been addressed to the more moderate mullahs of those days. I think he'd be happy to recognize that many have listened to him (not to mention his following in Iran).

The full speech with a line-by-line translation and the original text is at http://www.faithfreedom.org/Iran/KhomeiniSpeech.htm

Here is a excerpt:

Why do you Mullahs only go after the ordinances of prayer and fasting? Why do you only read the Quranic verses of mercy and do not read the verses of killing? Quran says; kill, imprison! Why are you only clinging to the part that talks about mercy? Mercy is against God. Mehrab means the place of war, the place of fighting. Out of the mehrabs, wars should proceed, Just as all the wars of Islam used to proceeded out of the mehrabs. The prophet has [had] sword to kill people.. Our [Holy] Imams were quite military men. All of them were warriors. They used to wield swords; they used to kill people. We need a Khalifa who would chop hands, cut throat, stone people, In the same way that the messenger of God used to chop hands, cut throats, and stone people. In the same way that he massacred the Jews of Bani Qurayza because they were a bunch of discontent people

The myth of the “Occupied Territories”

Do you think that the "occupation" and the "settlements" are the cause of the Arab-Israeli conflict?

Watch these movies - they talk about daily terror attack, settlements, armed settlers etc (sounds familiar?). There is only one problem - these movies were maid in the 1950s - long before there was "West Bank" and "Gaza".

	"The Defenders" (1956) - life in Kibbutz Kissufim - a frontier settlements near Gaza
	"Edge of Danger" (1955) Settlers on border kibbutzim remain vigilant day and night guarding their homes
