Ah those 'peaceful' MUSLIMS are at it again. 'PINKY' BHUTTO was the 'target' this time - who will be next??? ISLAM - a 'religion/creed' of peace and equal opportunity slaughter. Let me direct you to words of Abd al-Rahman al-Ajar pasha of Tripoli 1785 – “It was…written in the Koran, that all Nations who should not have acknowledged their[the Muslims’] authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon whoever they could find and to male Slaves of all they could and take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.' NOT MUCH ENLIGHTENMENT OR TOLERANCE IN THESE ISLAMIC FANATICS IS THERE IN APPROXIMATELY 300 YEARS IS THERE???

You'll find similar literature in every civilization Zyskander ,they are called propaganda .Christians too used this stuff starting during the era of the Crusades.Why don't you cite some of those too ?It seems to me you're just another biased paranoid person .What purpose is there in your citing 18th century literature ?Is that supposed to be a general picture of a religion ? Why single out only one religion only ?Are you member of another competing one ?

It took me nearly 5 minutes to find similar examples as cited by Zyskandar but from the Christian side of religion .Notice well that the pope promises the kingdom of heaven to all those that depart for the crusades :
his royal city, however, situated at the center of the earth, is now held captive by the enemies of Christ and is subjected, by those who do not know God, to the worship the heathen. She seeks, therefore, and desires to be liberated and ceases not to implore you to come to her aid. From you especially she asks succor, because as we have already said, God has conferred upon you above all other nations great glory in arms. Accordingly, undertake this journey eagerly for the remission of your sins, with the assurance of the reward of imperishable glory in the kingdom of heaven.
....THis was pope Urbanus II, anno 1095...luckily times have changed.

tonny, per usual, is spouting pro-Islamic garble that is utterly without historic validation.

tonny would have us believe the Crusades were Christian oppression of innocent Muslims.

'By the time the first Crusade began in 1095 Muslim armies had marauded into & conquered two-thirds of the Christian world. This was 460 years after the first Christian city was overrun by Muslim armies, 457 years after Jerusalem was conquered by Muslim armies, 453 years after Egypt was taken by Muslim armies, 443 after Muslims first plundered Italy, 427 years after Muslim armies first laid siege to the Christian capital of Constantinople, 380 years after Spain was conquered by Muslim armies, 363 years after France was first attacked by Muslim armies, 249 years after Rome itself was sacked by a Muslim army, and only after centuries of church burnings, killings, enslavement and forced conversions of Christians.'

perhaps when there are suicide bombings on his street, tonny will at last understand, but even then, I doubt it
