I'm not going to bore you with my comments -- Instead I am going to post two quotes; The first one is exactly what our president said last evening on national television - and the second is what the Qu`an teaches. You decide;
President Obama Last night:
"And one of those groups is ISIL -- which calls itself the 'Islamic State.' Now let’s make two things clear: ISIL is not 'Islamic.' No religion condones the killing of innocents. And the vast majority of ISIL’s victims have been Muslim."
And now we go to the Qur'an:
The Qur’an teaches that Muslims must fight and kill unbelievers “wherever you overtake them” until “religion is Allah’s,” i.e. Islamic law rules all societies (2:190-193). They must fight unbelievers “until there is no fitnah and [until] the religion, all of it, is for Allah” (8:39). Muslims are to fight unbelievers and “prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know [but] whom Allah knows” (8:60).
Allah tells Muhammad to “fight against the disbelievers and the hypocrites and be harsh upon them. And their refuge is Hell, and wretched is the destination” (9:73). The followers of Muhammad should imitate him in this: “O you who have believed, fight those adjacent to you of the disbelievers and let them find in you harshness” (9:123). For “Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves” (48:29).
