In reply to the discussion: French Muslims Urge Brothers to Kill Westerners for Allah. [View all]Violet_Crumble
(35,961 posts)37. How come the only people I see calling Islam 'the religion of peace'...
...are folk that don't like Muslims? There's no such thing as a peaceful religion, so apart from being one of those lame RW one-liners, it's pretty stupid...
Also, the OP was intentionally misleading and in the subject line tried to make out that this is a view held by the French Muslim community rather than 3 extremists. Why is it okay to judge an entire community, ethnicity or religion based on the views of the most extreme?
