I have been reading some Muslim scholars who have argued against jihad for many years, and one who converted from being a Quran Reciter and teacher at university level – to being a Christian – that reveal the texts in the Quran and hadith about the Jewish people and the level of inbuilt hatred for Jewish people is appalling. Every bit as vile as anything said the Jewish people by the Christians. And it seems to me the problem for Islam is this whole idea of abrogation.
That is whatever Muhammed said later in life overthrows what he said earlier. As as the peace loving Mohammed is invariably the earlier Mohammed that gives the ardent Muslim plenty of room to preach murder. As Terek Fatah says medieval machismo is the modern answer to Islam’s perceived problems when it should be modernisation and equality.
