What ISIS Really Wants
This response article misses a major point, most likely deliberately, that ISIS are following the actions of Mohammed himself, who they see as the perfect man. In the same way that Christians (in theory) would like to emulate the life of Christ, fundamentalist Muslims want to emulate the life of Mohammed. But Mohammed was not a man of peace. He was a warrior, who killed his enemies, targeted the Jews, kept slaves, encouraged rape of female captives, beheaded prisoners, took territory by force, treated non-Muslims as second-class citizens, and had a child bride. Therefore many of the verses in the Koran and Hadith are about these topics, and as they are a core part of the founder&#x27;s life, they cannot be removed or reformed.<p>[1]<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thereligionofpeace.com&#x2F;Muhammad&#x2F;myths-mu-home.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thereligionofpeace.com&#x2F;Muhammad&#x2F;myths-mu-home.htm</a>
