I've always been equally as critical to the violent ideology and practices of the popes of Vatican City contrary to the nonviolent teachings and practices of Jesus and his desciples as I have to the violent ideology of Mohammed and his successors as justified in the Quran, the Hadith and Sunnahs.
But you have always avoided being critical of the violent ideology and practices of people like Moses and King David as justified in the Old Testament, nor the violent ideology and practices of Jews or Protestants when appealing to those portions of scripture.
Its not like Xians just read the new testament and dismiss the old. They readily use justifications from the old testament which is about people in the exact same position as Mohammed was... trying to found a religion and place to live for his people.
Indeed you particularly avoid the point that Jesus, no matter how peaceful he might have been, found justification for his rule by directly appealing to his legacy from the much more lusty and violent figure of King David.
By the way, perhaps you can explain how building the modern state of Israel is justified? Perhaps you cen explain what you think its creation will ultimately entail for the world? No one is going to suffer or die in its creation, or after its creation fulfills a prophecy?
Where is the justification for the violence that is to occur?
