Put on your best suit, we have guests coming.

The last time an Osama bin Laden tape showed up for our viewing displeasure, the terrorist spoke of a "crusade against Islam." Unfortunately, U.S. polls are showing that Americans misunderstand Islam on such a scale that this bogus claim is allowed more fertile ground to sprout than should be available.

This claim is brought about by Osama manipulating the truth. We are not in a crusade against Islam, if we were there would be no more mosques,and no free Muslims left in this country. We are however fighting the war that Osama started. We are fighting the brand of Islam that is trying to spread Islam throughout the world, leaving no non-believer alive.

MJS editorial wants you to go to the Muslim open house to learn about Islam. Here's the thing. What happens when you invite people over to dinner to introduce them to the family? You clean up the house, make a nice meal, and everyone dresses up and shows their best side.

That's what will happen here. They will not show you what they don't want you to see. I'm not saying that the Muslims in Milwaukee are waging Jihad against others. Not at all. But they probably won't tell you where the others arrive at the conclusion that it is necessary for them to do so.

Someone in Milwaukee, do me a favor. Go to the open house. During the question and answer session ask these questions:

1. What is the meaning of the following passage: "..reckon not those who are killed in Allah's way as dead; nay, they are alive (and) are provided sustenance from their Lord [meaning they are enjoying their 72 virgins in heaven]" Excerpt K 3:169

"...make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them." Excerpt K 8:012
"..Allah loves those who fight in His way in ranks as if they were a firm and compact wall." K 61:004

2. Ask about the Prophet himself ordering stonings. If they don't know where tell them to read the Hadith.

3. Ask about the ambushing of a caravan ordered by the prophet.

4. Ask about the prophets warning against Muslims becoming friends with non-Muslisms.


Then report back.
