The Seven Myths About Islam

From Knight Crusaders:

It is unfortunate that Barack Hussein Obama and his sycophantic news and print media seems to have ignored the historical and factual Islam altogether. Instead, we are bombarded with statements such as:
  1. “Islam is a religion of peace.”
  2. “Some evil people have hijacked Islam for their own benefits.”
  3. “Islam encourages brotherhood, coexistence and mutual understanding among all human beings”, etc.
Also, Muslims and Islamic apologists are busier than ever in proclaiming that Islam is a religion of peace and Muhammad is the best ‘role model’. Of course, their claims are rubbish.

What Islamists are trying to accomplish is forward the idea that there is somehow an Islam that is moderate, enlightened, peaceful and brotherly. They call it the ‘moderate Islam’. Now, manifestly, and as shown in the preceding sections, all such notions about Islam are utterly false.

But how come Islamic apologists can lie so blatantly and unabashedly about Islam. How is it possible that they construe Islam in such a diametrically different manner than what it actually is?
