You quote one verse on the Koran that has the word “fight”, and then later quote another verse that simply has the word “terror” in it. (Both of these verses, are of course translated into English from Arabic, so we don’t really know exactly what they say.)

True, you have to read arabic to truly understand what the verses say. However, you can look at the religious rulings made by the various reputable muslim scholars, and look at how they interpreted the verses and it has been confirmed that “terror” means “terror”.
ed. – as opposed to our hopeful interpretation of what it would be, which would be “fluffy”. LOL
[quote=pri_dk]From this you conclude that all acts of violence committed by Muslims are terrorist acts?[/quote]
Nope. Specifically I am saying that Hasan is a terrorist. Not all acts of violence by muslims can be considered terrorist in nature. However, by Hasan’s behavior, it was clear that he believed in and was following the commandments of the Koran. And in so doing, he committed a terrorist act.

Being a religions fanatic that wants to kill all the infidels is much easier when you can just get a billion dollar government contract and use real weapons. No need to be creative and use airliners as weapons.[/quote]
When there are a thousand Erik Princes committing 10,000 killings in the name of his religion, then you would have a point. Otherwise, it just looks silly.
