Not all Muslims are jihadists, but Muslims can't theologically disagree with jihadists.
The difference between "normal" Muslims and the jihadists is not a different interpretation of the faith.
Both sanctify the same man and the same book.
The difference is in the level of commitment, not in the underlying belief.
Think of it this way:
The overwhelming bulk of active missionary conversion in Christianity is done by one branch, evangelical, born-again Christianity, with Catholicism as the next largest share.
But while not every Christian or Catholic is a missionary, nearly all of them regard proselytization as an essential part of the faith.
They don't devote their own lives to the mission, yet they approve of it, and they support it wherever they can.
Jihad functions in Islam the way the Great Commission functions in Christianity.
Most Muslims won't carry it out personally, but they affirm it, they won't condemn it, and the doctrine itself sits at the center of the religion, not the fringe.

The people of Ceuta have had enough.
When the locals saw that journalists from the liberal TV channel La Sexta had arrived to slander their protest against illegal migration, the locals quickly walked up to them and told them to get lost.
The people of Ceuta feel betrayed 🇪🇸
No big deal, just proof the FDA knew the COVID Vaxx was poisoning women’s ovaries as early as NOVEMBER 2020.

Our country is run by criminal murderous psychopaths. And there’s no way to vote our way out of this. Have a good day.

Sorry, but if your religion teaches you to hate dogs because they are ‘impure’ and ‘haram’, maybe it’s time to realize your religion is not a religion of peace.
It’s pure evil!
The Persecution That Doesn’t Make the Headlines
I am a Muslim convert to Christianity. I lived for 15 years as a Christian believer in Morocco, much of that time in what we called the underground church.
Listen carefully, because this is what “moderate Islam” looked like for us:
Morocco is considered one of the most moderate Muslim countries. That is true compared with Mauritania and Libya, where converts from Islam face the death penalty, or Egypt, Jordan, Syria, the West Bank, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Pakistan, where converts face imprisonment, torture, intimidation, or severe persecution.
But here is the reality of “moderate” Morocco.
We gathered secretly in homes every Sunday because churches were for foreign Christians, not Moroccan converts. We sang in low voices so the neighbors would not hear us. We arrived two at a time to avoid suspicion. If anyone asked, we pretended it was simply a gathering of family and friends.
We baptized converts in bathtubs.
I was baptized in a bathtub myself. A missionary and a few Moroccan Christians were the only people present.
We kept our house churches small, usually fewer than twenty people. When they became too large, we split them. Christmas and a few special occasions were exceptions.
Police raided Christian gatherings, confiscated Christian materials, dragged believers to police stations, interrogated them, threatened them, and humiliated them with vulgar language.
Our children had to go to school and study Islam and memorize the Quran even though their parents were Christians.
We could not freely give our children Christian names. The government did not need to write “Christian names are forbidden” in bold letters. The authorities simply refused to register them.
Our marriages were treated as Islamic marriages under Sharia because the Moroccan state refused to recognize us for what we actually were: Moroccan Christians.
A Moroccan Christian woman could not simply marry a foreign Christian man as a Christian. He had to establish before the authorities that he was Muslim because, according to the government, she was still a Muslim.
The state decided our religion for us.
Even death did not end it.
When a Moroccan Christian died, he was buried in a Muslim cemetery under Islamic rituals because the government still considered him Muslim. I remember one Moroccan Christian who died in Tangier. We had to do the impossible to get his body to Ceuta so he could receive a Christian funeral.
Imagine having to smuggle your religious identity across a border just to be buried according to your own faith.
We could not establish our own legal Moroccan churches. We could not get permission to build even one church for Moroccan converts. Our house churches were illegal gatherings. We lived at the mercy of the police. Any meeting could be raided. Any neighbor could report us.
Foreign Christians had churches.
Moroccan Christians had secrecy, whispers, living rooms, bathtubs, police interrogations, and fear.
And then Muslims lecture the West about “Islamophobia.”
Spare me.
1/2
Before I left Islam, I was debating a Sudanese Christian who challenged me to name one good thing about Muhammad. Just one.
I thought: easy. We Muslims practically worship Muhammad as the greatest man who ever lived.
So I tried to recall good qualities, honesty, compassion, mercy, love, anything, any single story, and I couldn’t remember one.
So I went to Google and typed: “the qualities of the Prophet.”
Islamic websites came up, and I thought, good, now I’ll have plenty of examples for this guy.
I opened them and was stunned: even the Islamic websites offered no good qualities in the sense he’d challenged me to find.
They praised his courage in spreading Islam, his fighting of Allah’s enemies, his physical strength, and his strictness.
Not one of the qualities the man had asked for.
Even the famous mercy at Mecca, sparing the people who had supposedly persecuted him, turned out to be for strategic reasons.
And when I started digging into the Quran and the sira for myself, I found that he married a child, he took Safiyya, a Jewish woman, the same day he killed her father, her brother, and her husband, trading his companion Dihya seven other captives for her, and posting a guard by the tent in case she tried to avenge them while raping her.
He had the men of the Jewish tribe beheaded, down to boys checked for pubic hair.
He raided trade caravans and took other tribes’ treasures.
He lied and broke truces he asked for.
He slept with all of his 9 wives the same night.
He killed anyone who mocked him.
He recruited raiders with the promise of other cities’ women.
And when his own fighters hesitated to touch married captives, because their husbands were alive and watching, Muhammad told them it was fine because allah said so.
Even the pagans of Arabia had higher morality than he did.
Every one of these acts was stamped with Allah’s approval.
He even married his adopted son’s wife by divine decree.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg.
I left Islam when I met this disgusting man, a man who turned his qualities into a religion, transmitted it to every generation of Muslims since, and made himself the ceiling of their morality.
This is the man Mamdani wants you to learn from.
In the United States, if you destroy a Bald Eagle egg:

Because an unborn Eagle.
Is still an Eagle.
I wonder how else this applies.
