He convinced you that "Jihad" is about inner struggle. No, he didn't. First of all, he didn't CONVINCE me of anything. I was not persuaded, but rather I was informed of something verifiable. "Informed" is not "convinced." Secondly, I was not informed that "'Jihad' is about inner struggle" but that "qital" is the word for the violent subset of "jihad." I said, "weed" is not "flower" but rather a subset. Sheesh!

The main use of "Jihad" in the Koran is, and always will be, to kill or enslave all non-Muslims. That may be the main use but it is the second priority. The first is to purify or eliminate existing Muslims who are not in 100% compliance. Jihadists are permitted to work both missions simultaneously. Understanding this helps explain much of what we consider random killings of Muslims. We must also know that Jihad is not about a war that lasts a few years. It is a way of life and Jihadists expect to spend their entire lives fighting for and pursuing both missions. But the Imams and the rest of the crowd need to convince you otherwise. They want to keep you nice and contented while on your march to the ovens. That is exactly right. They are experts in using Psychological Warfare against us.
