There's no question that jihad historically means war.
The so-called peace path is not peace and it is not a substitute for jihad and resistance.
Hamas also elected to governmental leadership in Palestine includes the jihadists people who have declared war on the United States of America and its ally Israel.
There is a group of individuals who are radical jihadists. We need to call them by name. They believe it is OK to kill people in the name of their religion. It is not all of Islam. It is not all Muslims. But there is a subgroup who believe it is OK. In fact it is their plan and design to kill people.
Days will prove that the assassination policy will not finish the Hamas. Hamas leaders wish to be martyrs and are not scared of death. Jihad will continue and the resistance will continue until we have victory or we will be martyrs.
I think Islam has been hijacked by the idea that all Muslims are terrorists that Islam is about hate about war about jihad - I think that hijacks the spirituality and beauty that exists within Islam. I believe in allowing Islam to be seen in context and in its entirety and being judged on what it really is not what you think it is.
