To carry out attacks against an enemy occupying your land, killing your children and humiliating your family — which is exactly what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinian people — is considered legitimate jihad. [empahsis added]


Not only killing your children, but ***gasp*** humiliating your family.

Any culture where these two acts carry anywhere near the same moral weight is a culture the rest of the world can't reasonably be expected to tolerate indefinitely.

Especially when the opening statement you cite is followed by:
To launch suicide attacks against civilians who have come to your country at the invitation of its government to serve the country and train its people is terrorism, plain and simple. There is no difference between murdering people and taking your own life. Both are criminal acts that must be condemned.

Obviously, reason has no place whatsoever. Time to bomb [despotic arab regime of choice]. It would be a mercy killing. Imagine what domestic politics are like for these folks...I was initially biased slightly in favour of Islam (a long time ago) due to my overwhelmingly positive experiences in Turkey, but Turks then seemed to have little in common with Arabs now. Alas, it seems the difference is closing rapidly...
