Religion of peace?

I'm starting to get offended that Muslims keep insisting Islam is a religion of peace.  Really?  THAT'S the story you're sticking with?

I never see Jewish suicide bombers blowing up women and children in the market the way Hamas does. I never see armed Christian militants kidnapping little school girls and forcing them to marry their soldiers like Boko Haram does. I never see Buddists invading towns and killing anyone who refuses to convert to Buddhism or handing out pamphlets on the proper way to rape an infidel like ISIS does.  Atheists never hijacked planes and flew them into buildings like Al Qaeda did.  I bet Wiccans find Harry Potter very offensive but they never shot up the publisher's office or put a hit out on JK Rowling.  Je suis Harry?

There may be the occasional nut job, but no other religion on the entire planet has so many people willing to martyr themselves for their religion or has such an organized and continuous militant wing as Islam.  Where is all the violence coming from?  I don't know.  The Koran maybe?  Because it comes from somewhere.  I don't know what Muslims are refusing to admit to themselves, but I know what I see with my own two eyes and Islam is not a religion of peace.

Islam is oppression.  Mormons didn't shoot little Malala just for trying to go to school.  The Taliban did because Islam teaches that women are property and aren't entitled to know how to read.  Yes, Islam okays slavery.  The Catholic Pope doesn't have people executed for disagreeing with him but Islamic law says anyone who disagrees with the prophet can be executed for blasphemy.

And yes, Islam is a religion of war.  Jihad is just as much a part of Islam as Christmas is to Christianity and it is taught to millions of little Muslim children in millions of mosques all over the world.  How else can you explain why so many people born outside the middle east join terrorist groups IN the middle east?   They're recruited somewhere.  Church maybe?  Where did the idea of the martyr getting 72 virgins when they die come from?  From Saint Mohammad because Islam does say it's okay to make war on the infidel, i.e. non Muslims.  Look it up.

But you still say Islam is a religion of peace.  I say PROVE IT.

Why is it always left up to the west and people of other faiths to fight terrorists?  Why don't Arab nations take the lead?   Why aren't Arab nations sending troops into Iraq to fight ISIS or into Nigeria to fight Boko Haram?  Why isn't the Palestinian Authority doing anything to stop Hamas?  Obviously because they're OKAY with what these groups are doing.  By the way, the majority of people killed by Islamic extremists are actually Muslim.  They don't seem to care.

But you want me to believe Islam is peace so I want you to prove it, Muslims.  I want YOU to clean house.  Try stopping the terrorists instead of hiding them. Yeah, I'm talking to you, Pakistan.

Until Islam does more than just whine it's all the west's fault and starts actually doing something to stop terrorism, until Muslims stop empathizing with terrorists and wages its own little war on terror, I will not be convinced that you mean me no harm.  If you want me to believe you're nice guys, prove it and stop promoting terrorism.
