Iran is run by a Supreme Leader who is an Ayatollah who believes in world domination by Islam. That is the beginning and ending of wisdom in dealing with Iran. They intend to defeat us, occupy us, and impose Sharia law. That is their objective.
They are using immigration to do it already. They are winning in Europe. The Left parties in the Netherlands and Belgium to even a greater extent than the rest of Europe are now firmly in the camp of Islam and are committed to an Islamic Europe under Sharia law with nuclear weapons aimed at the US.
Iran is determined that Israel be destroyed and every Jew forced into submission. Every Christian as well. Atheists and agnostics will presumably have a chance to convert before facing death.

Islam does not allow peace with non-Muslim states period. It only allows for truces up to 10 years, although some authorities say only 5 years.

Why Truce and Not Peace? by Showan Khurshid 28 January, 2006

quote Muslims who have experienced a deeper indoctrination will have greater difficulties when they live in liberal democracies. They need to lead a double life, maintained with unease and a good deal of hypocrisy, faking and double standards. Because according to a Hadith [Mohammed's speeches], a Muslim is duty-bound to intervene physically when he sees a transgression [defined in Islamic terms] and if he is not able to do that, then he must intervene by his tongue. If he is not able to do that, then he must, at least, oppose it in his own heart; but taking the last option is a manifestation of the weakness of the faith. end quote Why Truce and Not Peace?

They don’t mention that its a redneck site.
Muslims who impose their practices and culture on the members of their community or family regardless of their wishes are also the main contributor to the formation of ghettos and a ghetto mentality.
Neglecting these requirements will no doubt result in, sooner or later, overtaking Europe and the whole world by Islamic culture and tradition. The free world should not wait until Islamic countries possess atomic bombs and threaten human survival. Nor should the free world wait to be consumed from inside. Islam, like other ideologies, can only bring savagery to humanity. What should the liberal democracies expect from people who display human slaughtering? And what should the world expect from people whose “prophet” allowed himself and his thugs to take captive women as sex slaves?

quote The arabic word is hudna. According to the doctrine of jihad as defined by the Koran, ahadith, Sira and authoritative Islamic judicial commentaries down through the centuries, it is a temporary cessation in hostilities that is designed to give the Moslem forces time to recuperate. A hudna may only be offered by the Moslem forces if they are weaker than their opponent.
The mainstream media usually reports offers of hudna as “truce” or in a complete distortion of truth, as “peace”. So the Israelis are often portrayed as rejectors of “peace” when in fact, because of their understanding of the truth of the hudna smokescreen due to decades of painful experience with the deception, they are defending their civilian population from further attack.

For the traditional Islamic understanding of a hudna, which Sheikh Hassan almost certainly had in mind, doesn’t consider a truce a foundation for peaceful coexistence, but a temporary measure to allow Muslim forces to gain strength. The Shafi’i school of Islamic jurisprudence stipulates that there must be “some interest served in making a truce other than mere preservation of the status quo.” The only “interests that justify making a truce are such things as Muslim weakness because of lack of numbers or materiel” — which the time of the truce would allow the Muslim forces to remedy — “or the hope of an enemy becoming Muslim” (‘Umdat al-Salik, o9.16). So LeVine, in calling for a hudna with “radical Islam in particular,” is in effect recommending that the United States suspend the war on terror so that Osama bin Laden and company can come back again in a few years with renewed strength and virulence.

quote Also, here is what “The Reliance of the Traveller”, page o9:12, says about Islamic “truce”:
In Sacred Law truce means a peace treaty with those hostile to Islam, involving a cessation of fighting for a specified period, whether for payment or something else.
… Interests that justify making a truce are such things as Muslim weakness because of lack of numbers or materiel, or the hope of an enemy becoming Muslim …
end quote MARK LEVINE AND A TRUCE WITH ISLAMby Silas answering-islam.org
quote Remember, Muhammad is Islam. If Muhammad proves to be a liar and truce breaker then today’s Muslims will follow suit. Muhammad is their prime example and they endeavor to walk in his footsteps. If Muhammad could lie and break his word for any reason that suited him so will the Muslims of today. And if that is the case then LeVine is wrong, dead wrong, about concluding a truce with today’s Muslim terrorists.

quote After Muhammad conquered Mecca and established his power in his region of the Saudi Peninsula, he claimed to have received another “revelation” from Allah, telling him to break his word and some treaties. … Quran: 9: 5) Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. end Quran quote.
A detailed account of the actual event is given in “The Life of Muhammad” pages 617 – 620. (It is also detailed in “Tabari’s History”, volume 9, pages 76 – 79). What this is describing is that Muhammad claimed to have received a “revelation” from Allah telling him to break the various types of treaties he had with various tribes and people. Some were to be broken right away, a select few would be honored until their time was fulfilled, then the treaties’ provisions would no longer be honored and the guarantee of peace ended.
Muhammad lied again and justified his lie through Allah. After the “sacred months” ended the polytheists would be subject to attack as verse 9:5 commands. At this point in time Muhammad had gained enough strength that he could now make war upon people he once had a treaty of peace. So he broke the treaty and prepared to make war upon them. end quote Silas Answering Islam.
Let me quote from another article I wrote recently that details Islam’s position towards the non-Islamic. The article is found here.
A second reference for this verse comes from the “Reliance of the Traveler”, page 559 [11]. This book is not just a commentary; rather it is “A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law.” It is based upon the Shafi’i school of Islamic law. (There are four major schools of Islamic jurisprudence, the Shafi’i being the largest of them). The book represents not just the work of a single scholar, but rather “represents a large collectivity of scholars….” It is not just a simple Quranic commentary; rather it is a foundational theological textbook.
The Caliph makes war upon the Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians, provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax Jizya … in accordance with the word of Allah Most High:
“Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden – who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book – until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled.” 9:29
The Caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim …
The quotes above are taken from a Manual of Islamic law (Shafi’i). It states Islam’s official position towards the non-Muslim: War and subjection.
