>>>Funny thing: I never read where the Nazarene told his followers to burn people at >the stake, kick them out of places where they lived, put 'em on the rack, to kill 'em all and let the deity sort 'em out (after the Inquisition) ... or is all this just a big bunch of blowback ? A<>E<>R <<< Print this article | Close this window US, Jews under threat from Islam: Pat Robertson November 28 2002 The United States needs to wake up to the threat of Islam, US televangelist Pat Robertson has reiterated, warning that jihad, or holy war, lies at the heart of the Muslim faith. "I just think that America had better wake up, especially the Jews," the founder of the Christian Coalition and one-time candidate for the Republican presidential nomination told CNN yesterday, pointing back to his earlier controversial warning made two weeks ago. "Of course, there are millions of peace-loving Muslims, but at the core of this religion taught by Mohammed is jihad, and it is to subject non-believers either to forced conversion, or death," Robertson said. Robertson's comments that Jewish organisations should understand the threat of Islam prompted a rebuttal from US President George W Bush, who called Islam a "peaceful religion." "They want to kill the Jews and they also consider America the Great Satan, and they want to kill us. It's just that simple," Robertson said. Robertson, who said he knew plenty of Muslims who were lovers of peace, pointed to the Islamic regime in northern Sudan as being repressive, saying around 2.5 million people had been "slaughtered" there. "They are being bombed as we speak in their villages ... by the Islamic regime trying to impose sharia upon them," he said. Several prominent churchmen have made disparaging remarks about Islam in recent weeks, including Franklin Graham, the son of Billy Graham. And after his statement in October that Mohammed was a "terrorist," prompting outrage around the world, another US evangelist Jerry Falwell backed down somewhat, saying he "intended no disrespect to any sincere, law abiding Muslim."
