Omar Bakri Muhammad is a suspected Al Qaeda terrorist who was interviewed recently in a Portuguese newspaper, Publico. Here is what he had to say about the intentional killing of civilians:

“We don’t make a distinction between civilians and non-civilians, innocents and non-innocents. Only between Muslims and non-believers. And the life of a non-believer has no value. There’s no sanctity in it…Terror is the
language of the 21st century. If I want something, I terrorize you to achieve it…The word ‘terrorism’ is not new among Muslims. Muhammad said: ‘I am the prophet who laughs when he’s killing the enemy.’ It is not only a question of killing. It’s laughing while we are killing.”

In Matthew 5:44, the words of Jesus Christ are recorded:
"But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous."

We are living in difficult times....
