IMHO, the Qur'an does not command the "slaughter" of anyone. It does
permit fighting in some cases, but not the outright slaughter of
innocent people.
From the Qur'Anic verse I posted:
"for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter."
I suppose the issue of who is and who is not innocent is determined by
God. On the other hand, I have seen no evidence that innocents cannot be
"slaughtered," as well.
