An imam. How odd. How did an imam, a man who has dedicated his life to understanding the Qur’an properly, misunderstand it so spectacularly as to think that he had to get involved in violence? John Kerry, call your office!

As commenter David, Thailand, says:
Such acts are not terrorism, they are Jihad.
Jihad is all out war, specific to Islam,
specifically by Muslims,
specifically against non-Muslims,
specifically commanded by the Koran,
specifically endorsed by Sharia, and
specifically in the furtherance of Islam, for Allah.

That comment is rather stupid…. Terrorism is a tactic, and mad mo himself boasted that he was made successful, through terror. Actually, that comment is incredibly stupid. Which is probably why it sounds like something that a devout muslim would say.

Specifically, how is a mosque a threat to the community within which it is built?
Every single mosque in the world, by definition, is modeled on the mosque of Muhammad in Medina in accordance with the Sunnah. The Sunnah interprets the Qur’an by reporting exhaustively on everything that Muhammad said, did, or consented to. Therefore, his Medina mosque, the first mosque, was a place where he gave judgments, where he decided who would be executed, where he instituted policy—domestic and military— where Jihad war strategies were designed. Consequently, it was a storage place for arms, a military training base, and was where troops were blessed and dispatched. Literally they were sent to conquer – first the whole of Arabia, and then the rest of the known world. Therefore if the present-day mosque is modeled as per the Sunnah of Muhammad then there should be very serious concern. As is well-known, Muslims are required to follow the example (Sunnah) of Muhammad—and according to Sura 33:36 it is not an option or a matter of opinion: “It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allâh and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allâh and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error.” This explains and establishes beyond doubt why arms have been found in mosques in various countries, and in different capital cities.

Italy, paying the price for allowing swarms of Muslim ” boat people” to settle in their country instead of immediately deporting them back to north Africa.
