9/11 and Jihad Terror: A Legacy of Over 13 Centuries--Not 13 Years
2014-09-14
h/t Gates of Vienna
There is just one historically relevant meaning of jihad despite the surfeit of contemporary apologetics. Dr. Tina Magaard -- a Sorbonne-trained linguist specializing in textual analysis -- published detailed research findings in 2005 (summarized in 2007) comparing the foundational texts of ten major religions. Magaard concluded from her hard data-driven analyses:

The texts in Islam distinguish themselves from the texts of other religions by encouraging violence and aggression against people with other religious beliefs to a larger degree [emphasis added]. There are also straightforward calls for terror. This has long been a taboo in the research into Islam, but it is a fact that we need to deal with.

#7  Funny, Frank, I've got a coexist bumper sticker on my CRV, too. Wonder if they'd take mine the same way as they take the Prius stickers.

They never want an opposing opinion.
